Everyone keeps saying how there is no other option than "at all times". What about not checking it and writing something about that particular desire/wish in your profile?

Everyone is always complaining that they get emails from people who can't bother to read their profile, yet rather than supply some thoughts or sentences on the "caging" issue, you would rather check off a box that doesn't accurately describe what you want.

I realize this might be somewhat off topic, but really....if the "checklist" doesn't fit your needs that is why you have the opportunity to WRITE something. If you don't want people who email you to be lazy and not read your profile, don't enable it. And worst of all, don't complain about it when you do!

And, after five years in Master's house, I'm not always assured of a place in His bed, either. Even if He's on the road, all it takes is a simple email from Him and I'm on the floor with the dog. When He IS home, I must request each night to be granted permission to enter His bed. I like it that way, and so does He.

On cages, you said:

You know, I find it completely nvigorating. Far from boring the knowledge that they are there is a source of amusement and positivity in the back of my mind every time I think about it. I find it ... luxurious. It's almost deliberately asteful... and I dig it entirely.


So do I, but for obviously different reasons. We've got four different cages, ranging in size from just big enough for me to curl into a fetal position, to a 4' solid cube, padded "isolation box." I LOVE being caged, and He will put me in one for no other reason than the fact that He CAN. He likes knowing I'm there, and I tend to become VERY creative when I've nothing else to do but think. In fact, with one of the cages, Master will often give me a reading or writing assignment to complete while I'm there.

The subject reminds me of the Tennessee William’s play, The Glass Menagerie. One of the characters, Laura, has a collection of delicate glass animals that she “cares” for. Sure this is lyrical symbolism, but it is what caging is all about…symbolism. The glass animals are fragile with a delicate beauty…and easy to break if not handled with love.

I'm being a bit droll here, but I'd really like to know why so many women want this? And what kind of pleasure is it supposed to give me?


I'm not into cages, or the types of bondage that totally restrains and maintains a sub for hours at a time. let alone 24/7. While it gives me absolutely no pleasure...it's not "all" about me.

When I partake of it, it's for my sub to enjoy. From past experiences, I would do my part (in restraining them however way was required), to begin the process, and then let him alone to enjoy "himself," and only keeping an eye out for him, to be sure he remained safe (albeit alone).

So I don't understand it, or derive pleasure from it, but I'm not opposed to having my man enjoy what he enjoys (if within my own limits). It's one of those fetishes that doesn't take away from my other interests, even though I may never understand the draw to it.

I am going to ramble a bit here - I am still a quart low on coffee. This might not make sense at first, but stay with me and perhaps you will see my reasoning.

Once upon a time I had a job I adored. My boss was wonderful. My co-workers were fantastic. The work was interesting. The entire thing was this perfect wet dream of employment, if you will. I often thought I could do it forever, work this job and eat and sleep and that would be just as fine as could be, thanks very much.

About a year later, including 7 months of NO days off, and countless double shifts, I wasn't worth shooting. Oh, I still was madly in love with the job, boss, co-workers, and all, but guess what? Only Human, that is what. I had just about ruined my health. I was getting boring, as the job was my whole world, and really now, how interesting is someone who is completely a one-trick pony? My performance at work gathered no complaints, but I felt it had slipped a notch or two or three.

So now I stumble across anything 24/7 and veer sharply away, laughing and rolling my eyes. I have even advanced the heretical notion that 24/7 is a crock of shit. We are all Only Human. I don't care how blissful it is NOW, I don't care what it even IS, we all need a day off from whatever.

Cages.......aahhh.......sexy.....to imagine being a darling little pet.......oh, wait, I AM a darling little pet! Room is a problem here, too, and with teenagers and their friends running in and out of the house, what can one do? We have a large eyebolt embedded into a wall, and if I need to be punished or put somewhere that I will be safely out from underfoot, I can be tied there - loosely with a long chain, uncomfortably with a short rope, whatever. Granted, there is no door clicking shut behind me, but I think we would probably use an actual cage pretty seldom, not often enough to justify the expense.

When i get overwhelmed with outside world and thoughts, a cage is a nice place for me to be alone, and get centered again. It prvides me with a safe place, an nothing can get to me, and i can't focus on whats "out there" if i am in a cage.

Master Hawk has a large metal dog cage, with a flat botom. He has paced a thick mat inside, and a blanket. No, i would never want to be inside for 24 hrs. After a short time, it gets very cramped an uncomfortable. However it is a nice, safe place for a quite, time out, from time to time. Be it for my need, or for punishment.

Besides, if one were locking in a cage 24/7, how would the actual chores get accomplished?

If someone is REALLY interested in what goes on in the mind of a slave, while in the cage, i have written a journal entery (which was later published) about what REALLY goes on in the mind of a slave who was left alone in a cage for one hour. (This is factual, not fantasy or eroticism)

Let me know, and i will be happy to share it.

Cages for people are strictly part time-unless you indulge in felonies. Then it can be longer!

Caging is a hot fantasy for some. I'd love to cage a sub for a while. Repeat: for a while. ANyone that's ever been locked in a cell for any period of time knows it boring as hell, very confining,a nd not good for your health, long term. It;s hard to exercise, etc...

Still, I know subs that say they like the idea, the security of being confined. Others that are claustrophobic would hate it. To each their own...

I've been caged and boxed for different periods of time and to me it tends to feel very safe.
Thus far the longest I have been caged was 6 hours but when I was taken out I didnt feel the least bit uncomfortable.
Being caged at all times doesnt generally mean at all times. It means rather than hanging on the couch, you're in your cage. In most cases if you're playing that heavy then the space is larger than what one might see on most of the fantasy sites. It requires enough room to move around and not cramp the body. People spend 8 hours a day in cubicles for work and realistically those spaces aren't much bigger than a large closet ;)
Being a cage slave also doesnt necessarily mean that you don't use a toilet, get exercise or have uses outside of your cage. Just like most activities, there are unrealistic fantasy levels and more realistic long term levels.

Just my guess here... but I think it was a badly worded option on the old interests list. Cages can be fun to use for various things... but I think its pretty obvious that in the real world you couldn't keep someone in a cage all the time, nor would it be practical or desirable for the dominant. But its really a moot point since those old options have been replaced by a newer list that simply includes "cages" and an option for your level of interest in them.

still need to get my idea for a fetish petting zoo in play. Rows of pets in cages with the well dressed Doms and Dommes drinking martinis on the outside.


I actually went to a party that had a petting zoo like this it was SOOO much fun. Also included a grope wall (1 side you stuck hand through & had no idea who or what you were touching and the other side you leaned against & had no idea who was groping YOU.

ALL I CAN SAY IS: IT'S AN INTRIGUE, TO HIDE, AND, FEEL, AND, BE INVISABLE ,AND, PRIDE ,IN BEING ,the caged BEAST;those primitive feelings running up and down your spine ,as you stay,IN THE CAGE; OWNED, BY THE TOP ,OF TOPS,
(your-TAMER),
held like a valuble domestic stable- slave,
not unlike wild-stock.hopefully you're ,not there, for dinner.

,in re: to THE SLAVE WHO ASKED :
HOW LONG CAN YOU STAY ,IN A BOX, OR CAGE? ....
READ THE BOOK: called - 'perfect victim'-
(paperback),BY SOME GUY I'M SURE..(,..forgot the famous authors' name)....
they hunted ,for a female, to make a slave, and, kept her ,in a manmade-box ,they built ,at the end ,of their bed, for 3 yrs.!- (actual case,-)
i thot how very sad ,and ,what a waste, when these two hunters ,of slaves could have had volunteers ,that would have praized them!
"channeling": i guess ...was all, that's needed.
you have ,to "channel "some persons, to the accepted expressions ,so they can do the same thing, in an adaptable social way .
i can see your point ,tho ,maybe ,you think all this ,about being caged can be somewhat 'ANTI-SOCIAL' ?

Here comes my .03$ asshole. Though it comes from a different perspective than a lot of the replies, and I know it isn't directly responding to the question. Because I think he was looking for sub responses. But here is my domly response anyway, what the hey. "24/7 Caging"! I think it gets clicked a lot because there are not a lot of options for "How do you like your caging?" Also, the fantasy always sounds more fun then the reality.

In fact, as a dom, I would very much not like to have my submissive in a cage at all times. How dull. What a dull master I would be? And what a dull submissive she would be? When I think of caging, I think of it as a correctional device, or a device to train a submissive to know her place, or a tool for a roleplaying ie. "puppy" scenario.

If I left my submissive in a cage at all times, the cage would lose all such meaning. It would simply be the cage. The beginning and end of her world. Everything else would be "outside" of her world. Not only would it totally objectify her (which don't get me wrong I am not knocking here). In my opinion it would be a sign of total neglect.

I had these room mates a while back. Supposed animal lovers. One was studying to be a vet tech for God's sake. Anyway, they were the lowest of the low vanilla vermin. Both of them could have spent some time in the stocks having a long time out. Well, one day one of them who usually took their kenneled dogs out didn't get home until about bed time. Well, it didn't occur to the other genius to take the poor dogs out of the kennel all day either. When his erstwhile girlfriend got home, she hit the roof because he hadn't taken them out. Then she stormed out of the room, slammed her door and went to bed. Then he stormed off to his room and went to bed. Both of them still hadn't even taken the dogs out even for a short run all day!!! Well, guess who took these idiot's dogs for a walk.

Sorry I digress. But whenever I think of the 24/7 kennel experience, I think of an environment of total neglect because of this experience. And just as I would never leave a dog in a kennel all day and all night without even exercise, I would certainly never do that to a woman either, even if she asked me to treat her like a bitch.

Anyway: Long story = Short Message. To me total caging leads to total neglect body, mind, spirit. Is unhealthy for the subject and is frankly unhealthy for the subjector too if you want to here more of my opinion.

I will ramble off now.
