Do they get claustrophobia?
i prepared a small glider kitchen for her just now but once she went in, she's struggling to go out and trembles. she jump~ knocked everywhere i took her out as fast as I can before she hurt herself~ aww poor baby sobs.

I doubt it. They like to huddle tightly together in a small dark pouch....I don't think that's condusive to clausterphobia.

My guess is she felt trapped. You probably need to make a 2nd opening so she has more than one entrance and exit.

Yuppp

ill try But she seems to be just focusing on one direction that is the top part..keeps jumpin up wanting to climb up the cage or somethin..should i opena hole on top then..but i doubt she can reach it though..and it is so hard to cut open a hole..i had a few injuries on my hand while doing it..sobs..or..ill give her an open air kitchen :3 in that case..i have to change her bed frequently..*sobs*

Just how small is this kitchen? I use gladware rectangle aprox 8.5" x 6.5" x 4"d, for my 2 girls, have only one door, they have never had a problem getting in & out and both are in there together eating at times. I did have rubbermaid round kitchens they were about 4" d also, but not enough floor space for 2 dishes & 2 gliders, so I stick to the rectangular.

If the size you have is suitable, and she just doesn't like it, consider trying one of the igloos in a decent size, maybe it's the floor (plastic lid of container) she doesn't like, and at least the igloo will help cut down on mess some, or you could even try using it over a plate on cage floor or under it (sit in poop tray under igloo). That might work better for her.

ive always put in the plastic lid under the dish it works okay..but when i cover it shell start to panic..i think she feels what jazznzoeysmum says..trapped and scared...i dont really know the exact size but its rectangular..3 times higher than her i think..yea..
ill try to cover again thee next day if she get panic scared again..i think ill have no choice but to have her an open air kitchen..ah~ but i really do hope that she can get use to the kitchen though..

I use the 98cent plastic shoe boxes from Walmart. I cut a nice big opening and I have 5 gliders that use one kitchen and I've never had an issue.

wu~ how did u cut it so even.. :3 i have alot of scratches at the side lol

Ive used kitchen scissors...hubby did this one & I think he used a box cutter. To smooth rough edges just use a lighter and run the flame around the cut edge to slightly melt it...it smooths it out quite nicely.

ah~ i need to ask my dad to help then :3 fireee thanks JNZmom *hugs*
