hey, Its been really bugging lately that my goo's don't really have anything to climb on and i was wondering if anyone knows where i can find a sort of rope cargo net?! I've looked on zoo plus and all they have is a cargo net for ferrets but it doesn't say what its made out of so don't wanna buy it in case they cant have it! I've also looked on ebay but cant seem to find anything! i would be very grateful for any advice or websites x

ooooh, I got something similar to this from P@H, my degus love it! I wouldn't advise the P@H one though because the connections are little plastic screw on things and they're rubbish! The thread has been dodgy since the day I got it!

LOL! It's the same one as P@H. All the plastic attachments on mine are broken too! Haha.... A little bit of metal wire has held them in place nicely for me  I think the price is cheaper on Ebay though. |

hey smux, thanks for the advice... i have emailed them and i am waiting for a reply! i cant take a pic of the glue as i stupidly tried cutting it all off when i received the product as i didnt think to ask all of you at first! the only problem i have is that anyone with half a brain cell can lie and can just say that its non toxic glue used when in actual fact its toxic glue!

i had a reply from them and they said that they cannot tell me what glue it was and then when i asked for a refund they told me that it is more than likely non toxic as the toy is made for animals!! my case is that although the item is for animals, it was made in taiwan and i dont think they would care what glue they used!

Sammy and Dean have had their rope bridge for a year now and they're fine. It came with loads of glue all over it, but I just cut it all off the top of the rope and re threaded the rope and cut as much as I could off the bottom (the bit they can't get to), just enough so that the rope still held together. All of mine have these and they've had them for quite a while. I should have mentioned this when giving you the link, but I have to admit that I didn't even think about it.

Well worth it and they can swing on them too.
