C&C® Cages for guinea pigs: modular, spacious, and customizable

Are you looking for a C&C® Cage for your guinea pigs? On this brand page, you will find the C&C® Cages assortment conveniently grouped together. Think of complete C&C® wire cube cages, cages with lofts, separate lofts, fences, and connectors to build, expand, or practically adapt an enclosure.

C&C® Cages is particularly popular among guinea pig owners who want more space and freedom than a standard cage often offers. The system works with separate grids and connectors, allowing you to create an enclosure that suits the number of guinea pigs, the available space in your home, and your interior design style.

At DRD Knaagdierwinkel®, when it comes to guinea pig enclosures, we look not only at the brand or size, but above all at their function in daily use. A good guinea pig enclosure must be well-organized, easy to keep clean, provide sufficient space to move around, and be logically arranged with hay, hiding places, feeding areas, and soft resting zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

More freedom in format

With C&C® Cages, you are not tied to a single standard cage. You can work with various configurations, extensions, and individual parts.

Practical for everyday use

An open C&C® enclosure provides a good view of your guinea pigs and often makes feeding, cleaning, and rearranging more manageable.

Expandable system

Separate fences, lofts, and connectors make it possible to modify or supplement an existing setup later.

What is C&C® Cages?

C&C® Cages is a modular cage system that has become known for its wire cube construction. The name C&C stands for “Cavy and Critter”. The system consists of grids and connectors that allow you to assemble an enclosure yourself.

The major advantage of this system is that you have more freedom than with many fixed cage models. You can choose a basic configuration, a larger cage, a variant with a loft, or separate components to expand your existing enclosure. As a result, C&C® Cages is a good fit for owners who want to consider space, layout, and practical daily use.

Why is C&C® Cages so popular for guinea pigs?

Guinea pigs primarily need well-organized running space, quiet hiding places, a good hay area, and an enclosure that is easy to keep clean. A C&C® cage fits this well, as the open design offers plenty of freedom to organize the space logically.

For guinea pig owners, that is an important difference. You are not just buying a cage, but a system that allows you to think about the entire layout. Where will the hay zone go? Where are the resting spots? Where do you place the toilet or the toilet bedding? And how do you ensure that the guinea pigs have enough free-roaming space? It is precisely these questions that make C&C® Cages interesting for anyone who wants to build the enclosure not only beautifully, but above all practically and animal-friendly.

What does DRD look for in a good guinea pig enclosure?

✓ Enough free movement space, so that guinea pigs do not just have to move around items
✓ A clear hay corner, because hay is the basis of daily care
✓ Multiple hiding places, especially with multiple guinea pigs
✓ A base construction designed for ease of cleaning, grip, and comfort
✓ A setup that is stable and remains logically accessible for care

Which C&C® Cages products can you find on this page?

On this C&C® Cages brand page, you will find a compact yet focused assortment. This makes the page useful when you are specifically looking for a modular guinea pig cage or parts for an existing C&C® setup.

C&C® wire cube cages

A significant part of the range consists of complete C&C® wire cube cages. Think of configurations such as 4x2 and 5x2. These sizes are popular with guinea pig owners who are specifically looking for a more spacious, open cage solution and at the same time want to be able to compare which size best suits their animals and available space.

C&C® cages with loft

Additionally, you will find C&C® cages with a loft. A loft is an extra raised zone within the enclosure. This can be useful as an additional space for, for example, hay, a feeding area, or extra furnishings. When choosing a loft, it is important that access remains pleasant and safe for your guinea pigs.

C&C® detached lofts

Individual C&C® lofts are convenient when you want to expand an existing setup. This way, you don't always have to choose a completely new enclosure, but can make targeted adjustments to your current C&C® cage.

C&C® loose fences and connectors

Separate fences and connectors are practical parts for maintenance, expansion, or replacement. They make the system flexible in the long term, as you can continue to adapt your enclosure as your layout, space, or preferences change.

For which animals is C&C® Cages suitable?

On this brand page, we focus C&C® Cages primarily on guinea pigs. The system is also the most logical fit for them, as guinea pigs benefit from a spacious, open, and uncluttered enclosure with a large floor area.

• Guinea pig: C&C® Cages is particularly suitable for guinea pigs, as it allows you to create a spacious and well-organized enclosure with room for hay, hiding places, resting zones, and free movement.

For other animals, we prefer to look at enclosures that specifically suit their behavior, body size, climbing ability, and escape risk. Small rodents such as mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, and gerbils, for example, have very different requirements regarding bar spacing, digging depth, ventilation, and layout. For rats and pygmy rats, climbing opportunities, height, bar spacing, and escape safety are actually important. For rabbits, a spacious enclosure or run setup can be beneficial, but the height, stability, and total freedom of movement must be well-suited to the animal.

Unsure if a C&C® solution suits your animals and your situation? You can always contact us via our service page . We are happy to help you decide so that you choose an enclosure that is truly right.

How do you choose a C&C® cage?

When choosing a C&C® cage, it is wise to first look at the basics: how many guinea pigs live in the enclosure, how much space do you have in your home, and do you want to be able to expand later? After that, look at the interior. An enclosure sometimes seems large on paper, but becomes smaller in practice when it contains houses, tunnels, hay racks, food bowls, and litter bedding.

Therefore, it is wise not only to look at the external dimensions but also at the usable moving space. Guinea pigs move primarily horizontally. A loft can be a nice addition, but it does not replace a spacious floor base. So, view a loft mainly as an extra zone, not as a solution for insufficient floor space.

C&C® selection check

• Choose the basic floor plan first, and only then look at a loft or extension.
• Leave sufficient free movement space next to the shelters, hay, feeding area, and toilet zone.
• Use multiple hiding places when you keep multiple guinea pigs.
• Check if the setup is stable and easy to clean.
• Think ahead: separate fences and connectors make adjustments easier later.
