ferplast cavie 80

Is this cage ok for a tempry home for mable to have her babies in and maybe for 2 to live in? Also it is £37 in pets corner is it cheaper anywhere else?

It will be okay for you to use just to separate her whilst she has the babies, but it's too small for much else. You could also use it to temporarily house any baby boys when they need to leave their mum but again it's not big enough for it to be a permanent arrangement.

It's about 2.5ft by 1.5ft and ideally for 2 guinea pigs you'd want something that was a minimum of 4ft by 2ft.

Have you tried Ebay? I bought a 4.5ft by 2.5ft indoor cage for about £20 and it's great.

Ditto what Natalie said.

If you do a google search on Ferplast 120 you should come up with a good selection. 120 x 60 cm is the minimum size for a pair.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to pay postage to Kent rather than £37 in a store?

A forum member was selling a 120cm cage in Kent just recently so worth contacting them to see if it's still available as they haven't posted to say it's been sold yet.

Just found the ferplast rabbit 100 on zooplus fpr £35 free delivery

 

[Danlaarr]

Is the 100 ok as a full time home for 2?

Depends on size of the piggys, I have two small piggys, fully grown, just small that seem ok in one although I am getting them a bigger cage this week. I have two others that are a fair bit bigger and it wouldn't be suitable for them.
Obviously the bigger the cage the better but you can add an extra level to make more room plus if they get plenty of run about time out the cage it's not so bad.
Zooplus do a 120cm cage for £39 delivered, well worth £2 extra for more room.

they skyline maxi xxl is on zooplus for only £39 and its a 120cm cage

Honenestly... No, i wouldnt say it was. The RSPCA say its too small, and most rescues wouldnt rehome to someone only owning a 100 cm cage with. A ferplast 100 gives 5.4 square feet of space, whereare a ferplast 120 gives 8 square feet.. thats a huge difference.
