Troubleshooting
Hutch appears wobbly after assembly
Double-check all screws and bolts, ensuring they are tightened securely. Make sure the hutch is placed on a level surface.
Latches are difficult to slide
Ensure no debris is obstructing the latch mechanism. If the wood has swollen slightly due to humidity, a small amount of wax can be applied to the sliding track.
Wood shows signs of wear from weather
This is more likely to occur if the hutch is exposed to direct elements. Consider applying a pet-safe sealant or wood protector, and ensure the hutch is placed under shelter for better protection.
Ramp is difficult for pet to use
Ensure the ramp is securely attached and not too steep. Some pets may need time to adjust to using the ramp; you can encourage them with treats.
