Guinea Pig C&C Fleece Cage Tour

It's been a while since our last C&C cage tour. Here's a look at our current spring themed guinea pig cage setup. Can you spot the cavies going about their piggy business?

Vertical hay rack in action

Here's a clip showing the piggies vertical hay rack setup. Poof and Truffle can be seen yanking out strands of hay from the ground level while Belka climbs to reach choice strands higher up. After investigating the camera, Peaches joins in on the munching.

Revy's Guinea Pig C&C Cage Expansion - Second floor loft

Surveying her new domain

For those of you interested in guinea pig C and C cage layouts, Revy would like to show off her newly remodeled cage! Our contractors (aka the humans) gave her cage an upgrade last weekend, adding in a second floor loft and ramp. She had to put down a sizeable piggy bean payment and borrow some from the neighboring pigs, but thinks it was well worth it.

Our playpen

Our play area

Today whee wanted to show you all our playpen! This is our play area outside of our regular cage. It's a 5 by 7 foot enclosure, with several protective layers of fleece and towels over a rug. Our humans fenced it off using some of the grids left over from our C&C cage, and put cardboard around the perimeter because certain piggies like to spray pee really far outside. Although whee secretly think Belka does so as revenge against the humans for creating such an escape proof enclosure.

Water Bottle and Brick

Today whee will be explaining our water bottle setup! Our slaves put these objects they call bricks underneath all of our water bottles to absorb any leaks or drips. That way our bedding stays dry. Bricks also have the added benefit of helping us wear down our nails so trimming is easier - on our front paws at least. We even have the option of laying on them to cool down on warm days.
