MidWest Homes for Pets Guinea Habitat Plus Cage, Includes Divider Panel and Hinged Top, Washable PVC Canvas Bottom, Expandable Small Animal Cage for Guinea Pigs, 171GHP

When we bought our guinea pig we also purchased a standard cage. After the food dishes and her igloo went into the cage there was no room for her to walk around more less play. I went hunting for a better home and found this cage. I was wary because there were some reviews about being difficult to set up and some claiming a badly made cage. It was also half the cost of others (and half the size) After reading the good reviews and feeling like size mattered(hehe) I went ahead and gave it a try. Not only am I glad I did but the guinea pig is too. There is so much room and it is sturdy even if you decide to take out the center bar which I have done. It does shake a little easier without it, but by no means is it unstable. I ended up buying another as we thought our first needed a friend. I guess she was to old to welcome company into her home (she was abused and the shelter kept her alone as she was not very sociable, she is now lol). The second cage is just as good as the first. A good thing too as GP #2 ended up being pregnant! She only had one which is also female so they fit perfectly fine together in the same cage, even with 2 igloos the dishes a potty box and toys. I do recommend using puppy house training pads under whatever you use for their base. The canvas is easy to clean though drying time is a little long. I found the pads keep the canvas clean as one GP likes to pull up the bedding instead of always using the potty box. Assembly is simple and besides attaching the Velcro strips (there are quite a few) on the canvas to the bars there is nothing difficult about putting it together. I wrote this review almost a year after purchase so there would be time for the normal wear of it and an informed opinion. It is just as sturdy as it was when we bought them the canvas is still in excellent shape even though I didn't think of the pads till several months ago. Either way the canvas is still washed weekly as a precaution even though the pads work great. I definitely recommend this cage for your little furry pet as it is well worth it's low cost and is a great sturdy,large home that they will love!

We purchased this item as a habitat for two guinea pigs back in December for my daughter. I have to admit, as far as habitats go, this one is a great value for the money and once we became used to handling cleaning, it is now a cinch. At first, we use the aspen wood bedding throughout, and the piggies love it! There is plenty of room for separate huts and a run through chew log, a food dispenser, dishes, hanging kabob chew toys, little mirror (since they love their reflection) and a corner potty training station. The water bottles and salt licks fasten easily to the side and it is one huge deluxe home for the piggies. They love the room they have to run and play. The top can be left off entirely, although they actually like it on as it gives them a bit more sense of security. They will run and play, chase each other, popcorn, and coo. They are quite happy. One drawback was cleaning. Emptying all of the bedding out and cleaning the bottom so it would be clean enough that there was no odor was difficult. The canvas bottom is leak proof and holds everything just fine, but it was just a bit of a chore emptying all of it, cleaning the bottom then spraying it with the odor cleanser. So! We have begun using the puppy mats that you would use to potty train a dog with, inside the habitat, under the bedding. Using two is just the right size to cover the entire bottom and go just far enough up on the sides that you can retrieve it easily and still keep the majority of the mess from escaping while you roll up, and remove the entire mess... MUCH EASIER and cleaner. And if you put in ample bedding, the piggies don't even know it's there so they don't try to chew on it. Just make sure it's completely covered with bedding so they can't see it. So! Then, you just remove all the toys, huts, dishes, feeder, etc., and start at one end. Pull up the sides of the training mats so they're sticking up all around the sides, then begin rolling it up, bedding, mess and all. Pick up the whole thing (I use gloves so as to not get any pee pee on myself) and the place it in the trash. For what little escapes, I just use a kitty litter scoop to get the rest out, spray the bottom with the spray odor cleanser, then replace with new mats and bedding. NO ODOR at all! And if you spot clean like you're supposed to, you don't need to go through this process that often. Although, I don't like the smell of animals at all in the house (as we have a son with a respiratory illness) so we clean at least weekly. I highly recommend this habitat and it doubles for a playpen if you wanted to use it in this manner too. The divider is fun for the piggies with the ramp, and I agree with other reviewers that if you're going to purchase the top and divider, purchase them all together. Plus, this thing is so easy to assemble it's amazing. We have absolutely no complaints with this unit. I think, of everything we've had to purchase for the piggies, the most difficult thing to find was a water bottle that didn't leak all the time. This was one heck of a chore... But that's a whole other matter =D. Have fun and enjoy your piggies!! Simple Solution Training Pads, 50 Pads, Extra Large

Amplio, ligero, fácil de limpiar.

Loved the size. Fits perfectly for my 2 piggies. As other reviewers said, the canvas itself is an issue as the piggies have started staining them and chewing off them although i usually had a fleece and pee pads. Especially worse so on the ramp sides, likely one day the canvas on the ramp may be entirely eaten up by them lol. Aside, liked that it is open top, spacious and generally easy to build and maintain. Material seems to be durable as well. Hopefully it does not rust as easy. A little tad expensive though compared to other diy c&c cages.

I loved how the divided was movable to I have an area for food only and then play, I have to males and its just enough space for the two of them. It was super easy to put together and cleaning was no problem either. I will say putting down a layer of plastic or some sort of covering would be good over the canvas so it doesnt stain. the folding roof works great for ease of access and adaptability. I will say its not super sturdy but strong enough im not worried about an escape and its enough to keep our kitten out if he snuck down to the piggies. 10/10 worked great for me.

Parfait... Pratique facile à monter et solide...

Käfig dient nur als Urlaubsquatier und dafür ist er super geeignet. Schnell aufgebaut und wieder verstaut. Größe ist auch ok.
