Cage Extension | 5x2 Cage Extension for Guinea Pigs (2024)

Whether you’re about to welcome a new member of your furry family or wish to gift your piggies more room to zoom, this cage extension gives them extra space without replacing your existing set-up.

Easily turn your 5x2 guinea pig cage into a 6x2 cage, ready to home up to 4 guinea pigs with no DIY skills needed. Simply slot the extra grids into the provided connectors to expand the cage, and add in the brand new coroplast base (which comes already pre-cut and ready to fold!).

While there’ll be more coroplast to klean, it will still be as easy as before with either a splash of vinegar, a spray of our No Non Scents Cage Cleaner, or a wipe of our Wheeky Clean Wipes. That’s enough to get them as good as new!

To ensure that even the smallest of floofs can enjoy our cages, we have developed our grids with small holes and thin meshing. Compared to industry standards, our design makes this cage extra safe by preventing baby piggies and bunnies from getting stuck in the bars or making a great escape (as long as they're over 8 weeks old).

And don’t forget to get creative by choosing your favourite colour of coroplast to mix or match to your current base, always combined with a super comfy fleece liner for piggies (a must-have to keep them comfy!) - there’s something for every floof!

PRODUCT FEATURES

Easy expansion: The extra grids easily slot into the connectors to extend the cage, while the coroplast sheet can simply be folded & added next to your current base. No tape, glue, or scissors needed to get your guinea pig cage expanded!

Room to Zoom: Give your piggies plenty of space to popcorn, zoom, and play without having to replace your existing cage.

Ready to customise: Choose your favourite colour of coroplast and mix or match it to your current base with a super comfy fleece liner for piggies. A must-have to ensure their feet stay comfy!

Safe for everypiggy: Everything from the non-toxic powder coating to the thin meshing with small holes and sturdy coroplast base ensures that this cage for guinea pigs presents no risk to your floofs (even when they’re baby pigs, as long as they’re over 8 weeks old!).

Developed by Small Animal Experts: Everyone at Kavee loves small furries, and our product development team are true specialists in their field. That’s why you can be sure that every product you get is designed with your pet’s safety and wellbeing in mind.

WARNINGS

Make sure to remove the protective film from the clear panels before setting up the cage. While this cage is suitable even for baby pigs older than 8 weeks, make sure to test that it’s safe for the size of your pet as every piggy is different.

The powder coating should not wear off with normal use (emptying the cage, changing the liner, your furry friends running into it). If your pet is very determined, they may chew off small parts of the coating, however it is totally safe as it is non-toxic.

Most animals will not chew the coroplast sheet. However, if this happens, you must immediately prevent this behaviour by covering the edge of the coroplast sheet, using a cloth, cardboard or a nibble guard. Some animals sometimes need a little time to adapt to their new habitat and lose this bad habit after a while.
