Pros: Inexpensive, easy to make
Cons: hard to make a cage cover
Coroplast offers unlimited cage options for small pets. I'm amazed at the designs I've people come up with using coroplast. Easy to find it at sign stores and grid are readily found, as well. The only problem I've seen with them is that they aren't as sturdy as a heavier plastic cage. Could be an issue if you have predatory animals in addition to the prey animals in the coroplast cage. Still, as good alternative to a store bought cage.

if you use zip ties all around it, it makes the cage very strong

That's fun, making it with your daughter..... My cages are all prefab cages, mainly because they are in my dining room and I stack two of them to keep room to walk. I got one free and two were bought used from the animal shelter near us. If I had an extra room, I'd definitely go the coroplast route. Lots of options and more space for the furred ones. :-)
