Ideas for new and bigger cage

[RosemaryM]

I think I will need to get a bigger cage soon for my 2 boars Toffee and Treacle. They are about 6 months old. The one i have now was from Pets At Home and said it suitable for 2 baby guinea pigs but I'm at the stage of looking at bigger cages so any recommendations of what cage and where to get it and approximate cost?

There’s an excellent cage size guide at the top of this forum:

Cage Size Guide

Two boars will generally need more space than two sows - C&C cages give the best space and they’re fully adaptable. You can of course buy them its yourself or you can buy a kit from websites like this one -

It’s difficult to get an ideal sized commercial cage for boars - I think the Ferplast 160 is one of the biggest:

Or there is this one but it’s more expensive:

Rabbit 160cm LARGE Indoor Rabbit & Guinea Pig Cage

This one is 150cm:

And....... my first Guinea Pigs were called Toffee and Treacle! xx

Thanks for the advice. How weird is that - us calling guinea pigs the same names!
