چکیده

The cage was designed for holding and breeding rabbits, and can also be used for holding cats for short periods. Single cages can be joined back to back: this larger cage can also be used for breeding rabbits, and the longer-term holding of cats.

Repair, maintenance and replacement costs of the cages are lower than for conventional cages.
