never thought i'd end up using dollar store bowls as hides for my girl, lol.
not that i didnt want to or anything, i just thought i'd be able to just upgrade sizes of plastic containers or buy 'em or whatever. recently i had fashioned temporary hides out of cardboard to make the 7 1/2 " x 6" x 2 1/2" one & lined the inside with paper towels to make them more snug fitting for her & thought those would hold her over til i was able to buy something of that size in plastic but yesterday ms. nyx here had to go & find the cardboard hides kryptonite...water!
& somehow i didnt think of that when making them?
so yeah she managed to completely demolish one of them by getting it directly over the water dish next to it & the paper towels soaked up the water then the cardboard became soaked & nyx had to go to the other side to get out of that cold wet mess.
so i had a few dollars & was going out anyways to do some grocery shopping but stopped first at the dollar store next door. after measuring every decent size looking plastic container i came to the bowls but the only ones big enough were the 7 1/2 or 8" diameter 44 oz. ones. i grabbed a 2 pck of solid blue ones & a couple small dish towels to stuff in 'em if they were too deep, ended up not needing those but now ms. nyx looks quite pleased to have solid homes again, lol.
if i'm able to get ahold of a camera anytime soon i'll take a picture & show ya guys her new "houses".
if only our houses could cost a couple dollars!
