  Ok so I put a shelf in the cage for Blossom but she doesnt understand how to get up there. She is not a jummper. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make a ramp. I attached a picture of the cage with the shelf to the left. Thanks

  What is the shelf made out of?
  I’m very creative so I may be able to come up with an idea on how to create a ramp.
  
  Edit: I said ramp when I meant shelf, and I double posted… I’m a mess. Lol.

  I love the cage setup! For a ramp , you could use a non-treated wooden board. The thing that some people don’t like about this is that after a while it might be come weak from the bunny chewing on it, so therfore you have to replace it once in a while. For my ramp I used a wooden board{NON-TREATED!!!!} and cut a dowl up to make some ridges so the bunny can grip. I hope this helps!!!

  Put some treats up there, she’ll jump You could also add a box or little wood cube that she can use a step.

  Not criticizing the size of your cage, but that area might be too small for a ramp. A one square wide NIC ramp would be very steep (45 degree angle).

  I would use a board and put something on the outside for traction. Or you can cut grooves in it like a chicken coop ramp. I agree it needs to me long enough so the angle isn’t too steep. If it’s too steep, she won’t use it anyway. My rabbits have no problems using ramps, but I guess some don’t do as well with them.
