"Bought this for my little call ducks. They can walk into this pan perfectly because it has a low front! They love swimming in it."
"Within about 3 hours one of my ferrets had completely broken the two pieces that lock onto the cage and was playing with the box. It does have good high backs so I ended up wedging one into the corner of the room. This needs a second lock closer to the bottom as well because the way the broke it was..."
