Woot!!! It took us four hours but we got it cleaned and assembled last night!
Cleaning definitely took the longest since it was used and we wanted to be sure to get every crease and between all the bars. =]
I'll post a pic in a bit (been having trouble with net so its hard to upload any)
Now we need to order some bedding.

This be me without proper camera clothing so I put on the cheetah blanket the ferrets play in...The things I do for pics. Yeesh. Btw, I know I'm short. I'm roughly 5'1, and this is the cage...

Now THAT is a tall cage. I'm short too (4'9 or so). Yay for step ladders and short people!

Lol, the height isn't a big deal as I do actually have a step stool... And Jeff is pretty tall. I'm so excited! I'll show you guys a set of ramps someone on Etsy made me. Originally I wanted to go with a red/gold theme, but once she made these...I fell in love. Especially since it creates soo many choices for color! Which I'm going to be making my own bedding for them, so I am really excited. Hehehehe I looooove this cage. Sadly they can't use it yet until we got those ramp covers.

I ended up taking out all the ramps, and just using a hammock between levels. Hocus is a little monkey and just scales the bars anyway. And our ferret/laundry room has a low ceiling, so we disassembled the bottom rack and set the whole cage on a board with casters -- no cutting necessary. I really love it... makes cleaning the back corners on the top level easy.
Maybe it's just the angle, but are all three of your shelves the same? The top and bottom look like the old design but the middle almost looks like one of the new pans.
And Etsy is awesome.

The bottom and middle pans are the same. But the top shelf is just cardboard, not a pan. It's like, really thin plastic/cardboard? Not sure. But...as long as it holds I have no complaints lol.
Yes, Etsy is awesome! She did another set of 3 and the solid color was a lime green (like hte light green in the tween pattern). It's only costing about $20-22 for her to make all 6 of those, shipping, and she includes a play pillow with each order =]
We put our boys in the cage to see how they reacted and one couldn't figure the ramps out...even though they have ramps now haha. And another just didn't use the ramps.
