MidWest Homes for Pets 142SHELF Ferret Nation Shelf, 22.75" x 17" x 3.25"

the top scatter guard works amazing for ferret nation 183 this one was super easy to install and was easy to put on the tray(btw) it's easier to install the panels with the tray outside the cage .. I think I read something that someone was trying to do it while the pan was in the cage.. I'm pleased with the fit. When putting together they're a tab you bend it to help secure it. The bottom scatter gaurd I had a slight issue with the first one Item side gaurds are too big by a half inch to 1/4 inch on the sides can't install it to my pan for my ferret nation 181. some of the pieces were slightly damaged but the boxes are not. Was returned before Im thinking? for the same issue because of the damage on the part that snap together. I ordered another one it was slightly better but still a little too big on the side, it doesn't fit in the pan on one side and sits up causing a gap. Maybe I'll order another and see if I have the same issue for the bottom scatter gaurd. If so I'll probably modify it to fit correctly.

Good replacement for my chinchilla pans. I replaced 2 and are still holding up well after 2 years. They are easy to clean fit well.

Finally found a cover for my cage. I'm not sure why it's so hard to find ones for bird cages when they're supposed to be covered at night. I don't have the same brand of cage but it has similar measurements. It's a little big which is okay. I have perches and his light on the outside so snug wouldn't work anyway. It looks better than my blanket and sheets over the cage. Easier to get in as well. It also makes moving it a bit easier since I don't have to worry about the wheels getting stuck in it. It's a good value for your money. The cheapest option I could find that would actually cover my whole cage. The build quality is a bit cheap. I have zip ties on my cage and I'm afraid they'll rip it. My green cheek was also immediately interested in the Velcro. The door opening is fine if you can just toss it in top. My light is up there however and I have to put it off to the side.

This very much does the job I need it to do. It keeps my ferrets from pooping over the edge of the tray since they think they must aim for the sky each and every time giving my newly painted wall a fresh crusty paint job. I do have a couple that pull on the edges and try to get behind it which is a bother, cause the sides come unattached easily. The clips go over and under the tray which is what holds it into place on all sides. The food that they spill out gets trapped under the edges so I have to be sure and lift when cleaning to get all the bits out. And once a week I remove the tray to clean trapped hair and mess behind and under. But the clips catch on the bars of the cage making it difficult to get out. Although I'd rather it be difficult to get out than easy for them to disassemble. I clean the cages daily with a vinegar, bleach and water spray and after time the coating is coming off and it rusts. This is becoming a big issue and I'm worried they are going to lick the rust. May try another option or brand of I can find one. I'm fine with it being flimsy, I just rather it not rust. I have 4 cages so the cost is up there for these. Please find a fix for that. Be sure to measure your tray. It fits well if you do. All in all, I much rather have these than not.

Definitely keeps the closure dark for the ferrets. Very easy to use. It's definitely worth the value

I like that it mainly does keep bedding and other things inside the cage better than not having anything there but the bottom connector pieces to hold it onto the tray are flimsy and were already bent when I received them. NOTE- I ordered 2 sets (top and bottom for 2 double critter nation cages) and all of them were like this. They don't seem like they will last very long. I feel like it was a bit over priced for something that wasn't made very well.

Don't do it. It isn't worth the money, time or especially the frustration. The instructions are pretty much useless--I spent about an hour trying to make sense of them (and using every curse word I know, plus some I apparently made up just for the occasion) before getting completely frustrated and asking Google for tips. I didn't think there was any possible way I was assembling it correctly as no matter how many times I reread the instructions and rechecked my work, no matter how many curse words I threw at it, or no matter how many live sacrifices I offered it I just could not get the pieces to actually fit in the pan as they are supposed to. And since this product is made by the company that made the cage it claims to be for use with, it made more sense that I was doing something wrong (perhaps my live sacrifices were of the wrong species or the moon phase just wasn't quite right) than that the item just didn't fit the cage and pan. But after checking out a couple of YouTube videos I was reassured that the problem was NOT user error but poor design. There is literally no possible way to put the 4 sides of the scatter guard together and have the assembled guard sit flat and flush with the bottom of the plastic litter pan. One corner of the guard always sits higher than the rest on the lip of the pan instead of resting on the bottom of the pan. Also, the "clips" that are supposed to hold the metal guard pieces to the plastic pan are easy to accidentally break off or mangle beyond use. And since the only possible way the guard can fit in the cage is for the guard to sit mostly inside the bottom edge of the plastic pan some amount of litter will always find its way under the guard in its quest for freedom. It is actually stunning how poorly this item is designed given it is NOT an off-brand accessory. In the end I stashed the pieces of the scatter guard on the bottom shelf of the cage and went to my local national chain home improvement store where I purchased a large cement mixing tub that I coerced into the bottom of the cage. It was cheaper and didn't require any live sacrifices to make work. Do a Google search for Critter Nation Cement Mixing Tub for more information (also it is NOT necessary to trim the mixing tub to get it to fit in the bottom of the CN cage, just work it a bit until it is solidly in and the doors can shut-- to clean just use a dustpan to scoop everything out and wipe down with a pet safe cleanser).

Trying to find a replacement for the one the chinchilla's chewed ujp was very difficult. this is the right size and it works really well.

LOVE IT!!!!No more messes on my floor, fits cage well. This is a must have for small fur baby cages.

The Critter Nation cage itself is fantastic, almost perfect except for the rubbish "tray" it comes with. A tray that allows the substrate to fly off everywhere. This item they have designed to be sold separately for a problem they themselves have manufactured, but it works, and works really well. A little flimsy but your pets (or your negligence) shouldn't break it any time soon.

Perfect for either replacing a shelf in your Critter/Ferret Nation, or just adding an extra shelf.

Très pratique pour éviter de retrouver de la litière partout 😅

Same as the bottom guard. Its super sturdy and keeps mess from falling out. Easy to put on and take off. Make cleaning super easy
