The Mini-Grid Ramp
In 2006, I was fortunate to find two boxes of mini-grids at Bed, Bath, and Beyond when I started to build the girls' cage.
I used many of these small grids for building the ramp. I used coroplast to line it, but did not zip-tie it to the grids; instead, I attached the ramp and the coroplast to the upper level separately. Both the ramp and the coroplast liner can move up and down, as needed, for easy cleaning.
A plastic "S-hook" secures the ramp to the side of the cage, so there is no swaying.
I sewed Velcro to my fleece pads and the Sherpa fleece ramp covering, so that everything stays in place while the guinea pigs are dashing up and down their ramp.
