The bookcase is fairly light, considering it’s almost solid wood. The backing on it is a section of wall paneling, and the whole thing is put together well. It’s a nice size and I will miss it, but I always knew it was mine only temporarily. I have a smaller one lined up to replace it, so I’ll only feel the loss for a few days.
I got two smaller ones, but they’re in service in the kitchen. Each one holds a bird. I dismantled the monstrous flight cage and will take it outside to clean the base and then take it apart and collapse that part of it. It was good while it lasted, but it wouldn’t have seen another year’s service with me.
Camilla is insulted but Gonzo is fairly happy. But he’s an old bird, and compared to Godzilla, he’s about as mellow as they come.
Maybe someone would trade you something more currently useful for the flight cage.
