"My little ratties sure like to kick their dried poopies out of their cage! We have carpet and their cage is near a wall, so a couple of these urine guards placed in the back corners of their 'Piddle Palace' sure keeps our house clean and their poop and/or urine in the cage where it can be cleaned up..."

— elizabeth

"This item arrived with bent corners with extremely sharp edges. Not fit for small animals or the people who install them!"

Bottom Line

A decent urine guard for rabbits and rodents, but the sharp edges and attachment issues need attention. Users should consider other alternatives if durability and ease of use are a concern.
