I think that all parts of the maze are getting equally remodeled at the current time - he really likes to expand the current openings so I think he's just going to eat the whole thing from the inside out! I'm probably going to find some cardboard poops here and there.... THe funniest part was that he actually found one of those circles that I forgot to punch out and by the next day he had punched it out himself! |

O.K. is it just my two or has anyone else's rabbits decided that the holes are too small for their butts to fit through so they've chewed and chewed so the "door" is now a gigantic gaping hole? Now I'm concerned about it being structurally sound, especially with 2 levels. |

Bunnies sure do know how to redecorate their digs don't they?! Beka - sounds like Max is a SuperBunny at work! Actually Jack does that too sometimes. So goofy.
Scarlet - The "architect" geek man (aka: my husband) wanted to me to also tell you that the way the maze is developed is that even if a bunny chews a corner or chews though the door, the panels are aligned within the maze in such away that they are normally about 10 inches apart so that keeps it strong, however, if one outside section seems to be in full destruction mode, then just switch out middle panels to give the the sides full strength again. That's one good thing about the maze as opposed to other cardboard structures, is the panels can be moved around as you see fit.
We will also have "replacement" panels up for sale by next week, but as forum leaders, you two of course can just email me with what you need.
I'm glad to see it seems to be keeping them busy at least! |

I have to say that my bunnies and Cats go crazy over this thing. My big persian cat has a game with the bunnies i need to get on camera. He squishes his big fuzzy body through the little holes and waits for a bun to walk by so he can bop 'em. Its so cute! The bunnies keep goin back by him like its their little game or somethin. My persain cat is a BIG boy its soo funny to seem him go through the little holes. He is very talented 
hopefully i'll get some pics of it soon on here. |

Kimberlyanddarren - it's in the BB store, or you can go to mazehaven.com.
Poe - would love to see pictures. Hopefully your bunnies do freak out when they get bopped on the head. You should call your cat FOO FOO (Ya know that song...Little Bunny Foo Foo "bops" them...)
ACK!! This is BinkyBunny. Just forgot to switch out from my admin mode after working on the site. |

An idea from someone who purchased a maze haven on rabbits online. She took the little cardboard ovals that you pop out and made toys from them:

Thanks BB! I will be sure to keep an eye on the maze, my two just adore it and I haven't seen them so darn happy in a while since I went through all the willow bundles. Speaking of which, I'll have to order more.  |

Sooo.... I seem to have gotten out of control and ended up with 3 packages of the Maze... I managed to get all three put together in a "step" configuration (see photo in The Lounge under Bunny Photos) but I got all confused trying to attach the multiple mazes to each other and I was wondering if there were specific directions for attaching multiple mazes- I'm normally good at putting things together! I just got really confused and I'm not quite sure how it was supposed to go if you had multiple mazes next to each other... |

So can you tell me exactly you are meaning? So do you mean you would be putting the single stories only together? Only building horizontally? Are you building the one big maze from each or doing a done of the smaller ones? I guess I should go check the lounge....
OHHH, I just went to the lounge - got it! Okay, so you are asking how to secure them to each other right? The tabs that secure the tops/bottoms, you should use every other one to secure up or down. So for example first tab could secure to bottom level, and second tab to secure the upper level. It's best to secure the section that has an opening.
Also, the higher you build, you have to becareful of creating "manholes" - Though we state this in the instructions, it can be a bit of a puzzle to make sure you don't develop those accidentally. That's when a vertical hole is aligned with an horizonal hole on any upper levels. |

Ok, this is my current maze set-up (I'm still building up the NIC wall on the left side- don't worry there won't be any way for them to fall!!!) And I successfully avoided all man-holes! I don't have any trouble building one like this that goes up extra and is still only a base of 2 maze sections. It's when I try to build out on one level with multiple mazes that I get confused. So the picture in the lounge I have- I'll post it here too- it's 3 mazes sections wide at the bottom (1 full maze and 1/2 another maze) and they aren't really connected, just 2 of the sections are connected since I could figure out how to connect the third... does that make any sense?????

This was the last version, which is 3 wide on the bottom- but the 3rd maze section is actually just shoved up against the first 2 so it's not really connected....

Wow that is some palace for that boy! Does he use the maze a lot? Edson naps in his every single day. It's so cute. I know I was a little confused at first but I only put together one. Three would be a brain struggle. Good luck! Bob is a lucky little boy. |

Ember is actually the one in the picture! (I always confuse people with my screen name! Bob was my first bunny who passed away a yr ago) Ember likes to chill in the maze and lounge during the day but at night she comes out so that her head is readily accessible for petting... I also have a lionhead and he just loves to explore in it- he'll pop his head out every single hole before settling on the perfect place to sleep! He's in there most every day- I actually always lose him him during the day and just assume he's tucked himself away in there somewhere I can't see  |

Oh yeah! They both LOVE the very top (the best place to hide from nail trimmings!)! I'm actually a little jealous... my own apartment is no where near as cool as theirs- I want a giant people-sized maze and 5 story condo! |

WOW!!! Even my architect husband is thoroughly impressed with your whole set-up! So basically, if I am understanding you right, you just do the same thing as the others and attach every other tab to the upper level, and lower level. You do this on every single level. Now if when you get to the point where you are putting the halfs to the full (like on your third level, you can just do the tab attachment (one up and one down) on just the sides and the back. You can try to attach from the middle/front, but it's not necessary. Does this make sense? |

Thanks  I just updated their condo some this weekend with my dad's help... it now has a tunnel stretching across the very top floor and more floor space on the second to highest floor... I'd add onto the maze some more... but, well, I guess I should leave myself a little room in my apt  I'll have to post updated pics of it tomorrow! |

You might have to grab a pillow and some blankets and find a place to sleep in one of the maze rooms.  |

adapted from Osprey's post...

i think that's a great idea to donate some. it's a simple enough thing, but it might bring some enjoyment to a shelter bun's day...
when i got my maze, my son helped me to it together, and afterwards he was gathering the circles to throw 'em away. i had to snag them back. even tho he's only 5, he gives me this look like, "uhm? they're garbage mom..." nuh-uh! they're bunny toys! this was before i even realized other folks on here were saving them too... great minds, right? |

I hear you guys here, My Maze Haven arrived a few days ago, and my boy loves it. I put some of his morning pellets in the Maze haven (Foraging), He loves it in there, sweeping for every last crumb. He loves to sit on top and watch what I'm doing. (Mine is a two story). It's great! I'd seriously consider getting another to hook up to his current one. |

Thanks! But of course. =D Not sure where I'd put them all, though. Oh, and back on the Maze Haven topic: I really want to set it up into the "L" shape, but I can't figure out how to attach the tabs. I can't manage to get my hands between the walls to fold in the wings on the tabs while pushing the 'Havens together to put it in the slot at the same time, and if I do get them in, they don't go in all the way and than just come undone at the slightest tug. Am I doing it wrong, or did I miss something here? I want at least 4 Maze Haven sets. Maybe more. When I find the money, Prince BunBun is going to be the most spoiled rabbit EVER. ^^ |

well when you put into the L shape, you create two separate small ones and place them in the L shape instead of attaching if that makes sense. |
