Cages

C&C Cages
The cages that we 100% recommend and prefer our adopters to have are the C&C cages, more information can be found at www.cavycages.com.

They are CHEAP, EASY TO BUILD, EASY TO MODIFY, have GREAT VENTILATION and most importantly are ROOMY.

A C&C cage suitable for housing two guinea pigs (2x3 grid) can be made for just $30!

Supplies:
The "grids" or "cubes" have been found at Big W, Bunnings and the Reject Shop. Currently they only seem to be available at Bunnings in white only. They are around $8 for a pack of six.

The corflute can be purchased from plastic suppliers, averaging around $7-10 a sheet depending on the size.

Cable/zip ties are also good for securing the grids in place, especially if multiple stories are made. They can be found at all hardware stores and most bargain stores (usually around $2-4 for a pack of 100).

Rabbits:

This cages are also ideal for rabbits but will need to be 2 grids high as opposed to the one grid high needed for guinea pigs. I would not keep a pet rabbit in a cage smaller than a 2 grid x 4 grid.

These cages are suitable only for indoor use unless significant modifications are made.
