You may have some issue s w/ the vet wrap now that its getting warmer. I've already had Buddy's wrapped rope perch get tacky & feel sticky. I may just wrap this perck in a garbage bag to keep dust off & light off, & put it in my basement for the summer. I just wanted to wait to have to buy another boing. His wood dowel can go back in for now.
It's really easy to wrap hemp unwaxed cord on PVC. I used Hemptique brand on his window/shower perch. I'm in the process of taking an old laundry sorter pvc stand & converting it for him & it's half wrapped now. I just sprayed it down, like you said w/ vinegar-water mix.

You can buy colored or plain & it can be purchased @ walmart too! I'd say w/ your perch, start w/ @ least 2 spools. I usually dont say Walmart for everything, but I'm kind of mad @ amazon this week. It just took 2+ weeks to get rice stir fry noodles from them because I'm not a "Prime" member. I only purchased them this way as getting to the grocery store has been difficult & when I finally got there I forgot to put them on my list.
Sorry, I think I'm rambling now.
Thank you for the tips! Fortunately the stand will be in our basement living room and we have AC so I shouldn't have any issues, but if I do I'll try rope out!
