Question About NIC Cubes

[Crystalballl]

Hello everyone,

I would love to build my little boy his own large place tolive. I keep hearing about these NIC cubes that u assembleyourself and however which way you want to. But my questionis does anyone know if you can buy these things in Canada, and if soanyone have any ideas. I've checked out the home depot site,but they didn't have anything on there.

If anyone could kep that'd be great!! Thanks a bunch!

Hi Crystal,

Most places won't have them listed online. You'll have to gointo the store and talk with someone. Most of the time theycan be found in the shelving or organizational sections.

Home Depot, London Drugs, Costco (though not all the time, but best bargain) all carry them.

Try using this websites "Find Material" database:

Just keep looking, and ignore the crazy look some people give you whenyou try to describe them... You find them somewhere, and theyare so awesome!

I'll definately check those places out. Thank you very much

Also I came across a website at some point and it was step by step howthis girl put her NIC cubes together and exactly what she used, andstupidly I didn't bookmark it. It was really neat and a goodreference for when I go and attempt to build this. Anyonehave any idea what site I'm referring to?

Thanks a bunch

This is a good website to start with:
http://homepage.mac.com/mattocks/morfz/nic.html

But also try doing some Google searches on NIC Condo or NIC cage.

Good luck, and feel free to ask us questions, many of us (including me) have built NIC condos before.

:hello Crystalballl

I don't know if you have Target's or WalMart's inCanda but they have a brand of NIC cubes called Organize-It Cubes for$14.95, you get 23 cube sections and 25 clips. They come in manydifferent colors but others colors cost a little more.

Sears has them also but their $32 there.:shock2:

Heres a pic of the cage my 2 little girls made for our bunny.



This cage took 1-1/2 Boxes and it is aprox. 30 in.Deep 45 in.High and 60 in. Wide.

Just make sure you use Electrical wire ties along with the clipsbecause an active Bunny can knock it apart without them!.Oh!:no:



:goodluck And Have Fun! Oh! I alsohavemore online links of where to orderif you'd like them!

That's an awesome cage your girls built. I recently movedBandit in to this computer room so I can really build him a nice sizecage now. Can't wait to do it.

May have to wait until after Christmas though, but we'll see



Thanks for the info

I got my cubes from the Super Store/Extra Foods. You can get them practically anywhere though.

Here's a handy tool that tells you exactly where you can find them!
