8 Best Guinea Pig Cages of 2021

Find the right home for your little friend

Before you bring home your new guinea pig, make sure you have everything you need to create a healthy and welcoming environment for your new pet, starting with the right type of guinea pig cage. One of the most important things to consider when it comes to cages is size – single guinea pigs need a cage with at least 0.7m2 of space, while a pair needs at least 1m2.

To help you make the right purchase for your guinea pig cage, here are the best ones available today Guinea pig cages:

Midwest Guinea Pig Cage

This top-rated MidWest guinea pig cage offers almost 300 square feet of space and bars that are spaced 1 inch apart, so your new pet will have plenty of room to live. The crate itself is leak-proof and easy to clean, folds flat for travel, and can be set up without tools.

Another consideration when it comes to choosing the best cage for guinea pigs is that you should avoid cages with wire bottoms, as these adorable little creatures have sensitive feet and their legs can get caught in the bars, potentially breaking them. That’s why this cage comes with a PVC-lined canvas bottom that’s soft on little paws and also provides grip so they can walk, run, and play with ease.

Cheap Guinea Pig Cage with Accessories Amazon Basics

Amazon has created an affordable and fully functional guinea pig cage. The jumbo size offers almost 10 square feet of space for your pig to roam around in — and that’s not counting a sturdy ramp or balcony. If you’re ever looking for your pet, the first thing you should look for is a balcony that makes a cozy nook.

The cage has large top and front openings and is equipped with a water bottle, hay rack and tilt-proof food dish. The top is made of an iron wire frame and the bottom is a PP plastic base.

Wooden Outdoor Guinea Pig Cage Lovupet

This fir wood hutch will provide your guinea pig with a comfortable and safe place to feel at home, with a single-level open area with a large span and a closed sleeping area. It has three doors: a wire front door, a room door and a door to the run. And the roof opens and has two locking arms to keep it open, so you can conveniently access your pet.

Speaking of convenience, there is a feeding trough that you can easily put hay into without opening the entire cage. The only downside is that even with the two slide-out trays for cleaning, the wooden walls of the hutch can hold the smell more than wire and plastic cages.

Kaytee Open Guinea Pig Cage

Guinea pigs have many advantages as pets: they are cute, cuddly, sociable, relatively easy to care for, and are not natural escapees. This means that as long as there are no predators in the house (e.g. cats or dogs) and your children are old enough to care for the animal, you can opt for an open cage without a roof. This makes it easier to play with your pet, feed it, and clean the cage. This cage comes with a waterproof liner that can be easily removed and cleaned.

Hagen Guinea Pig Cage

This spacious cage has everything you need to make your guinea pig feel at home, including a place for food they can't knock over, a hay rack to help them have access to unlimited amounts of hay (don't worry, they usually don't overeat), a water bottle, and a hiding place. (In the wild, guinea pigs are preyed upon by owls, wolves, coyotes, and snakes, so they naturally like to hide.)

When ordering this cage, choose size X-large, as medium and large are too small for even a single guinea pig to live safely.

Cage for two guinea pigs XXL with extension

An area of 1m2 is big enough for two guinea pigs. But make sure you have two guinea pigs of the same sex so there is no risk of mating. (Both male and female guinea pigs generally get along with each other.)

This wire cage with a deep plastic bottom comes with everything you need for your new twosome, including two large water bottles, two hay feeders, a feeding bowl and a raised feeding area that also provides a hiding place for your pet. The only difficulty is that it can be a bit tricky to put together.

All Living Things® Guinea Pig Cage

Do you think you'll want to move your guinea pig from room to room often to keep you company? This cage is equipped with six locking casters that make it easy to roll. The cage measures 0.75m2, excluding the shelf and ramp. The shelf gives them a place to hide, and the ramp gives them a little more room to run and play.

The cage also comes with a hay feeder, a bowl and a water bottle, and has top and side doors. Make sure you engage the lock after moving it to a new location, as only two wheels lock.

CagesCubes C&C Deluxe Guinea Pig Cage

CagesCubes are modular cages for guinea pigs. The cages can be expanded by adding mesh elements. This allows the cage to be adapted to a given location or requirements.

This type of cage will allow the guinea pig to have a separate area for play and rest. Climbing the ramp will be a real attraction and also a great way to release energy in a healthy way and improve the well-being of the pet.
