| 16 foot additon built in Feb. 2003 for the arrival of Tess. |
A 16x24 foot additon was added onto Draco's cage in Feb. 2003, for Tess. This addition also has it's own block den, built
outside of the cage. Now the 2 cages are open at all times, allowing free access to both sides by Tess & Draco. Tess prefers
to spend her time in Draco's house.
Soon after this additions was finished, another cage went up 6 foot from this one. This cage is now home to Rufus &
Biggie. It is 32 foot by 16 foot, with a 8x8 foot alcove, complete with roof over and den boxes in the alcove.
All cages have double door entrances to prevent escapes, or gated walkways between the cage door entrance. Walkways open
on both ends, and cage door enters into the walkway, allowing access to 2 cages from one gated walkway.
