Cavy Cages is a Guinea Pig Cages website providing information on proper guinea pig cages and sizes. Before you buy a cage, check out this website. The Cubes and Coroplast design is superior in many ways.

I love this site! My daughter has been begging for guinea pigs for her 9th birthday and I wasn't convinced until I found all the great info on this site and the pictures of cages, etc. Thank you to everyone who's added to the site! We built our grid cage tonight and will get the coroplast tomorrow. We are getting our piggies in 2 wks! - Sandy, Mon, 24 Aug 2009 4:08PM
Hi I'm Katelyn. I'm fifteen and last August I got two male guinea pigs (Midnight and Nutty). I want to build a grid cage but for the bottem keep the litter pan I have now. I want to have atleast two stories. The cage I have is kinda small for my piggies and I have a large wood hidey house, two food bowls, two water bottles, and toys. I don't know the exact measurements of the cage. Can someone email me at xobellax3italian@aol.com and tell me where to buy the grids, how to make the cage, how I would open it, and what I'd make the ramp of? I can send pictures of my cage now if you'd like. -Thanks! - Katelyn, Tue, 24 Mar 2009 2:19PM
Hi, we just built our C&C cage. We adopted two bonded males. We have a 2x3 bottom grid space with a loft area above that is 1x3. We put the hay and food upstairs as a feeding area so that the boys have the downstairs for play and sleep. I used Coroplast to make a ramp and glued strips for gribs onto it. (I had to throw some hay on the ramp so they would get used to going up and down). I found the best deal on the cubes at Bed, Bath & Beyond ($14.99/set); Coroplast ($10.60 for 4x8 piece). Lids are shelves you can buy at Home Depot/Lowes (get tips to cover the ends) which ran about $7-8. I've started out using the fleece bedding and they love it :) It's reuseable -- you just sweep the poops and wash 1x week with white vinegar. Hope this helps. Don't have a picture of cage yet, but it's a guinea condo with cuddle cups/tunnels, etc :) We also built a wood table to get the entire cage off the floor with storage underneath. - Dawn, Mon, 16 Mar 2009 12:31PM
