Good to know. Wait a little more and it will probably hit the 90F mark.

Not to jack the thread but I've been wondering what to cover the top of my cage with for the same reason, would poster board work? I was going to pick up plexiglass and drill in some holes, but I have poster board at home which would probably be easier.

I guess, as long as it doesn't emit any toxins(fumes or gases from the print) then I would say it is safe.

You called it, a few hours later it hit 91 and 80.

you'll probably want to go with something a bit sturdier, another good idea would be coroplast, it's that plastic stuff they make political yard signs out of.

You can probably find an old sign on the side of the road somewhere.

Lol, wasn't expecting that response but I guess it's very true, with some extreme washing!

Other than that, I've never seen it I'm a store, you'd probably have to order it online. At that point however, it would be much easier just to go with foam board, as you can get it at any office supply or Walmart.
