Does anyone know a place where I can get a nice warm (possibly fleece?) Kiwi's cage is right in front of my window, I don't want him to get cold. I can get the dimensions (I can't spell, if I even had a spelling mistake) of the cage if it's needed.

Oooh. I'll have to get the dimensions then. I have a queen sized blanket over Kiwi's cage, but i leaves huge gaps at the bottom. Gabby has a twin size blanket and same probably. I need to upgrade both blankets to the next size then for winter.

These are what I did for mine: How to Make a Fleece Tie Blanket: 15 Steps (with Pictures)

Buy enough fabric to cover the cage, cut and tie the strips, and done!
I have one of those for my bed! It was also my Girl Scout Silver Award project, I made like 20 for the homeless people in my area.
I never thought about it as a cage cover, since I bought the heater I think Kiwi and Gabby will be fine.

Oh and I think I'll make one, but how long? These are the dimensions of Kiwi's cage
L X 21" W X 60" H

And this is what his cage looks like.

watch thrift stores, for King size quilted mattress pads. i use full sized mattress pad on Rocky's cage. you can pin the sides in with safety pins,to snug it tight to the cage.

I never thought to use safety pins! I always tried (and failed) using clothespins.

sow some velcro strips to make it snug would be safer

Just finished the No sew quilt. My sister had to help me stretch it out (it was so small) but it fits on the back of Kiwi's cage that's facing the window. I'm just afraid for those cold winter nights, I'm not leaving the heater on over night so I think Kiwi and Gabby will be warm
