Why choose a 4x2 C&C ^® cage with loft?

This cage is particularly interesting when you not only want sufficient basic space but also wish to create extra zones within the enclosure. The 4x2 base provides a nice, continuous living space at floor level, while the 2x2 loft offers extra room for, for example, a quiet feeding area, a hiding place, or a separate corner for enrichment. This keeps the main enclosure uncluttered while still allowing you to get more out of the setup.

For many owners, that is precisely the strength of a C& ^C® cage: you don't just set up a standard guinea pig cage, but a system that you can adapt to your animals and your living space. This also makes this setup very suitable for those who like to build on it step by step.

Dimensions and space

The basic dimensions of this cage are approximately 145 x 75 cm , with a floor area of approximately 1.09 m² . The loft consists of 2x2 C& ^C® modules and offers extra space for organization and enrichment. The total height of the setup is approximately 75 cm , and the Coroplast bottom tray has a rim height of approximately 12 cm .

The loft is a valuable additional zone, but the base at floor level remains the guiding factor for the number of guinea pigs that can live comfortably in the enclosure. That is precisely why the 4x2 base is the most important starting point when assessing the space.

Use for guinea pigs

With a floor area of approximately 1.09 m² , this C& ^C® cage is a nice main setup for 2 guinea pigs . The base space aligns well with how guinea pigs use their enclosure: low, easy to see, and with sufficient continuous running space. The loft adds extra variety but does not count towards the base floor area.

For 3 or more guinea pigs, expanding is advisable. This is also one of the strong points of the C& ^C® system: you can easily add extra panels later and enlarge the setup.

Use for (dwarf) rabbits

For (dwarf) rabbits, this 4x2 configuration is not fundamentally intended as a permanent primary enclosure. However, this model can be used as a safe indoor play area, an extra run, or as part of a larger modular setup. Rabbits primarily need a lot of continuous floor space, so if you wish to move in this direction, expanding flat at floor level is the logical route.

Precisely because the system is modular, you can add panels in length and width. This makes it an interesting building block for a more spacious rabbit setup. For this, also take a look at the rabbit section and our collection for larger living spaces.

What is Coroplast and why is it useful?

The base of this cage is made of Coroplast, a lightweight and waterproof plastic widely used within the C& ^C® system. The material is practical because it is easy to clean, has raised edges, and helps to better contain hay, bedding, and loose debris within the enclosure. This makes it pleasant for daily use.

Coroplast is not chew-proof. That is good to know, especially for animals that like to gnaw on edges out of curiosity. In practice, it often helps to provide sufficient gnawing material , distraction, and enrichment.

Furnishing and expanding

This cage looks its best when you arrange the different zones calmly and logically. Think of a place for hay, a hiding area, a feeding area, and extra enrichment on the loft. It is precisely this layout that makes the enclosure feel more spacious and organized for your animals. For additions, consider a matching 4x2 bedding mat , a separate panel , or a handy COSY water bottle .

If you want to continue building later, that is precisely one of the advantages of an original C& ^C® cage. The system is modular, making it easy to expand with extra panels, doors, or new sections.

Good to know

The loft is intended as an additional living zone and not as a replacement for basic floor space. Therefore, for guinea pigs, the space at floor level always remains the most important starting point. Build the loft sturdily and ensure a safe ramp or access so that your animals can use it safely.

If you notice guinea pigs gnawing on the Coroplast edges, it often helps to provide them with more distractions and suitable gnawing material. This prevents damage and keeps the tray looking better.
