The bottom comes out. The hammock stays put.
Jumping spiders live at the top. That's where the hammock goes, and once she builds it, she returns to it every night. The mess collects at the bottom: leftover feeders, poop, and soiled substrate, all tangled up in decor you spent an evening gluing down.
Until now, cleaning meant taking the whole thing apart.
The Canopy Core's bottom drawer slides out with everything in it. Pull the core, clean it, rebuild the whole scene if you want, then slide it back in. She never loses her hammock. You never have to start over.
The original Canopy, evolved
We built the first roof-shaped enclosure in 2021 and named it the Canopy, after the rainforest. The peaked roof has a channel around its edge, so webbing anchored there survives every opening. The shape has been borrowed plenty since then. The drawer is where we've taken it next.
Ventilation worth looking at
Both side panels are laser-cut with a spiderweb pattern of 1.2 mm openings. True cross airflow from left to right, small enough to keep slings in and fruit flies out.
Backgrounds that swap in seconds (coming soon)
Black, Pastel Pink, Glitter Purple, Glitter Blue, Transparent Purple, Neon Green, and the new Pink Hearts. One comes included. Change it when your setup changes, or whenever you feel like it. Cottagecore, fairycore, goblincore: the Core keeps up.
