Which Guinea Pig Cage is Right for Your Guinea Pig?

Why a good guinea pig cage is so important

A guinea pig is an active and social animal that needs space to move, explore, and rest. According to the National Information Center for Companion Animals (LICG), a guinea pig needs at least 0.5 m² per animal , but more space is always better . That's why our cages are extra spacious and can be expanded with matching runs.

• Wire cube cages (C&C Cage) : modular and spacious, perfect for creative layouts

Guinea Pig Cages Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is a guinea pig cage alone sufficient or does it need a run as well?

A guinea pig cage is a good starting point, but daily exercise space outside the cage is essential . We always recommend adding a separate run so your guinea pigs can truly run, play, and exhibit their natural behavior.

How big should a guinea pig cage be?

According to the LICG :

• Minimum 100 x 50 cm for 2 guinea pigs
• Preferably larger, such as 120 x 60 cm or more
• Additional space via a run or loft is highly recommended

Can I keep guinea pigs in a rabbit cage?

No. Guinea pigs have different needs than rabbits. Many rabbit cages are too high or have slats that are unsuitable for guinea pigs. Choose a cage specifically designed for guinea pigs.

What is better: an open run or a closed enclosure?

Both have advantages. An enclosed enclosure offers protection and security. An open run is ideal for exercise. A combination of both is ideal!

How do I properly set up a guinea pig cage?

• Use a comfortable bedding such as hemp or soft paper
• Provide hiding places, hay rack, food bowl, water bottle and toys
• Add enrichment such as tunnels, willow branches and a mat

A guinea pig cage with a run gives your pets the perfect balance of rest and exercise. At DRD Rodent Shop®, you can easily create your ideal combination thanks to our modular wire cube cages and matching accessories.
