[Ly&Pigs]

The measurements of that cage are more than likely the outer dimensions and not the inner usable dimensions. And the little ledge with the ramp, well the ledge is dangerous as the pig could fall off and injure itself.

We do not condone petstore cages that do not meet the minimum recommended size for the amount of pigs that will reside in it. This cage does not meet the minimum size of a 2x3 C&C.

The purpose of this site is to educate people that guinea pigs need much more room than petstore cages can provide. We do not by any means encourage anyone on this forum (member or guest) to run out and buy a petstore cage. It's cheaper to build a C&C than to buy any sized petstore cage that would be large enough to house 2 or more guinea pigs. Hopefully anyone browsing on this website, will purchase the materials to build a C&C or C&C alternative and not buy a petstore cage.

And as a side not and this is not directed at you personally, but honestly, I'm about tired of the whole "this petstore has made this improvement" or "that petstore takes good care of their pets" arguments. After 3 years on this forum, I've heard about every argument there is and in the end petstores are still selling live sentient beings, still selling items that are dangerous, junky foods and treats and are still buying animals from backyard breeders and mills. I don't want to hear the same things anymore, I would rather hear stories of petstores that are stopping the sales of animals any day.
