Default getting rid of the Viv's!!

Hi,

I am fourtunatly getting a bonus at the end of this month, so am finally in a situation to change the viv's for tortoise tables. Unfortunatly the cat means I can't have a completly open top table, but I was thiking of getting one of these:

What are people's thoughts?

They my torts are two male hermanns. They have to live seperatly as Rodney is rather mean to Trigger. They each have their own 4ft vivs, although do spend a lot of time in the garden in the summer when it isn't flooding... I like the Idea of this one having a wheel base, so I will be able to move them round easily...

Do people think this is adequate? I'd ideally like to have it all swapped over by the time they wake from their big sleep next month!

P.S..... Does anyone know of anybody wanting to buy two 4ft vivs in the somerset area? and does anyone kno what price I should charge? They are both in perfect condition?

Many Thanks...

Sarah

Hiya, I use one of these for my Horsfield, Great if you have cats! Mine is blutacked to the side unit we have...Have had to block the sides as the cats kept jumping up and looking in ...That put an end to that

This one is also nice and big expecially if you have two...I want this one but the price put me off a bit...I shall wait till Teddy is bigger.

Thank you for your responses, Unfortunatly I have to buy two cages, so I wouldn't be able to afford the big one, but it does look amazing... maybe something to aspire to. I was thinking of putting an ad in my vets (reptile specialist) for the viv's initally, but I did want to check no one on here wanted them first.
Many Thanks
