NEW! Skirts for Door of your Cage. No more messy newspapers!

Postby AbbyBird on Fri May 02, 2008 1:41 am

Hi :)

I have designed and patented a skirt for the door of your parrots cage. I did this because the existing skirts/seed guards that go around the perimeter of the base of the cage don't extend out enough to cover the width of the door when it is open. And if you are like me and leave your doors open so that your bird can climb out on top of cage or door, you know that you have to place newspapers and/or mats on the floor to protect your carpet.

These skirts are an easy-to-mount, removable and positionable skirt that is powder-coated to match various colors of cages and they come with a removable disposable liner. The combination of a “lipped” bracket and slotted skirt design allow you to be able to slide the skirt left or right so that you can open and close your cage door without interference. You can mount them at the base of the cage door or toward the top so that poop does not get caught and collected on the doors handle/latch. They will fit most all luxury style cages (like CA Cages or Avian Adventure cages, YML, etc….the wrought iron/barred cages (not mesh or lighter-weight cages of plastic material).

My website will be up within a week (maybe two) and I have an ad coming out in Bird Talk magazine within the next several weeks. Right now I am just seeking some feed back from other parrot owners before I totally go all out with advertising and manufacturing. Custom orders will be welcome.

Attached are a couple of pictures. Some are not powder-coated yet and you will notice that in some of the pictures the skirt looks bigger than in other pictures. That was my original design...I have since made them more slim. They can be taken right off the cage (but don't have to be as you could just take out the liner and put a new one in) - and actually, I am still working on the liner.....right now I am just using paper towels but am waiting confirmation on an appropriate liner design. Please share your thoughts! So far all the stores and other parrot owners that I have shown them to locally just LOVE them and are anxiously waiting availability of them. I actually have samples ready now (well, except for the liner…you have to use paper towels or something similar for the moment). I would very much like to hear your opinion and suggestions (pos or neg) and if you are interested in a skirt or learning more about them please email me at: cash59@msn.com Thank you!

    The Door Skirts were designed to go with regular seed catchers! Besides, the door skirts go above the seed catchers, so there is no way that the two could *bump* into one another! I think it's a fabulous idea!
