The cage I brought Nomi for Christmas to keep the Degus in was supposedly designed to keep Degus in, however since they've arrived they've shown a very powerful desire to dig. This of course in the wild is fine, they in fact live in burrows. In captivity however it means that they throw all the lining of there cage out (In our case we use cat litter... more on that another day). Which would be ok if it wasn't for the fact that it ends up down the back of the radiator!
So I came up with the simple yet elegant solution you see above... wooden strips around the edge of the platforms and base of the cage. Hopefully it'll do the trick, as the next option is clear perspex... but that'll make it look like Hanibal Lecters cell.
