Whenever I see a “guinea pig cage” advert it makes me feel bad for the guinea pig who’s going to be living in it. It’s inevitable that someone will probably buy it and the cage is always too small. Should I message the person selling the cage to tell them it’s too small for a guinea pig or rabbit? Maybe I could convince them to advertise it as a hamster cage.

I'm afraid it's no use as a hamster cage either as the bar spacing is too wide. It would have to be covered with mesh so a hamster wouldn't escape.

Bad enough for Guinea Pigs but Rabbits, well that would just be terrible.

I could just see my Flossie Bun trying to Bink in that!
She has a large cage for overnight in case she escapes out the garden door when dogs going out for last Pee and I feel bad about that!

I used to put puppy panels up in the kitchen doorway to stop Louie racing out when Molly cat went out for her last wee!
 
Don't I have recently found an add selling a "guinea pig ball"! I hate to think what poor piggy is going to suffer that! I half wanted to buy it to make sure no one else bought it and actually put a piggy in it.

Hmmm about 2 ft I think they were.

Need to see what hubby suggests! Always works if I make him feel it was his idea! Think Flossie would just leap over 2 ft panels!
He’s quite laid back but I’ve already had to put C& C panels all around the sofa to stop her peeing on it so he’s not too keen on any more reinforcements! Lol
 
I hate seeing that too. :( But sadly, people are not educated and don't know any better. But we can try our best to educate them! Ugh.
