How to Make a Cage Cover: Critter & Ferret Nation Cage

This is a step by step tutorial on how to make a cage cover for the MidWest Critter Nation Cage or the MidWest Ferret Nation Cages. Although, this method can be applied to many other small animal cages, dog crates and cages and bird cages. I have included a list of materials and measurements below, along with links to some of the materials used to make this cage cover.

If you don’t sew and would like to purchase a cage cover, or cage liners, accessories or toys for small animals stop by FerretTails on Etsy. At this time I am taking orders for cage covers upon request, but I hope to add them to my shop in the near future! https://www.etsy.com/shop/FerretTails
