C&C Loose Connector for Wire Cube Cage

C&C® Cages Separate Connector for Wire Cube Cages

The C&C® Cages Loose Connector is a handy connector for original C&C® Cage wire cube cages. You use this connector to securely connect C&C racks, modify an existing setup, or replace a connector.

This is exactly the kind of small part that is easy to overlook, but is indispensable when working with separate racks, lofts, or extensions. Therefore, always order enough connectors along with a C&C extension so that you can build the setup neatly and stably right away.

At DRD, when it comes to C&C, we don't look at individual components in isolation, but at the entire system. A connector may seem small, but it ensures that panels, extensions, and lofts are logically connected. This keeps your C&C setup flexible, tidy, and practical for daily use.

Why separate C&C connectors are handy

A C&C enclosure is modular. This means that using panels, connectors, lofts, and matching bases, you can create a setup that suits your space and your animals. The connector is the component that connects the racks together.

Do you want to expand a C&C cage, install an extra panel, add a loft, or replace a connector? Then you need spare connectors to build the setup neatly. Especially for larger modifications, it is smart to order several at once.

A loose connector is also handy as a spare part. C&C is a system that you can adapt over the years. Having a few extra connectors on hand makes it easier to quickly repair, reinforce, or rearrange something.

What do you use this connector for?

The separate C&C connector is intended for connecting original C&C® Cage racks. You use it, for example, when expanding a guinea pig cage, modifying an existing setup, or installing a loft.

✔ Connect loose C&C racks
✔ Modify an existing C&C cage

Original C&C® quality

This connector belongs to the original C&C® Cage line. This is important, because in modular systems, panels and connectors must fit together properly. This allows you to build a setup that looks sleek and remains pleasant to use.

Are you using original C&C® Cage racks, cages, or lofts? Then this connector is the logical choice for connecting parts. For custom-built or non-standard systems, it is advisable to check beforehand whether the dimensions match.

For which animals do you use C&C connectors?

The connector itself is part of the C&C system. Its suitability therefore depends on the complete setup you build with it. Within DRD, we primarily use C&C as a modular system for guinea pigs and as part of larger, well-thought-out indoor setups.

• Guinea pig: suitable as part of a C&C guinea pig cage, extension, loft construction, or custom layout.
• Rabbit: only as part of a larger indoor run, temporary enclosure, or spacious setup. Plenty of continuous space to move around remains important for rabbits.

Always use connectors as part of a stable, logically constructed C&C system. For larger expansions, it is wise to count in advance how many panels and connectors you will need.

Complete your C&C expansion with parts that really fit.

A connector is almost always used in conjunction with other C&C components. Below are the products that fit directly with this connector: separate racks, complete C&C cages, lofts, and matching floor mats.

Tip: always order some extra connectors with separate racks or an expansion. This prevents you from running just one connector short during construction.

How many connectors do you need?

That depends on what you want to build. If you are replacing a single connector, one piece is enough. If you are expanding a C&C cage with multiple racks, you will need multiple connectors. Make a simple sketch of your setup beforehand and count how many connection points you want to create.

If in doubt, it is practical to order a few extra connectors. They take up little space, are handy as spares, and make it easier to make changes to your C&C enclosure later on.

Structure and use

Press the C&C racks firmly into the connectors so that the setup is tight and sturdy. Work slowly one corner or side at a time and check after assembly that all panels are properly seated in the connectors.

DRD tip: connectors are small parts with great value

In a modular system, connectors are the silent force behind the setup. They ensure that individual racks form a single unit. That is precisely why they are handy to order extra when you are expanding, installing a loft, or reconfiguring an existing cage.

A few spare connectors offer great convenience. You can expand, repair, or test a new layout faster without having to search for individual parts again.

Good to know

This connector is intended for original C&C® Cage systems. For non-standard or self-assembled wire cube systems, always check that the dimensions match.

With every expansion, check that the panels are properly seated in the connectors and that the setup is stable. This ensures the C&C enclosure remains neat, stable, and pleasant for daily use.
