From a memo on updated rabbit cage regulations:
"The penalties for using lead paint or similar paints on bars have been increased by 40%. The use of lead is now also banned in parts of cages accessible by rabits, including bars, floors, ceilings, rubies, gates and feeding instruments."

"rubies"
Could it be that it's a word like "Kleenex" or "Coke", i.e. that it refers to something using the name of a well-known brand?

English term (edited):
runs
corrales
I am guessing it is an OCR misreading of runs
Discussion
"Ruby Run" gets some hits, but it may be a tradename, and it's not part of a cage.
What are the regulations? Which country are we talking about?
