Well it's a small appartment and he doesn't leave my living room/ kitchen. It's all carpet and he's goes back to his cage to use the bathroom. There are certain areas under a few things that I put a cozy down and he will poop in those sometimes so it makes it easy clean up. I can't do that with my girls they will run and hide under furniture and poop and pee everywhere if I let them.

He's an exception and does not act like your typical guinea pig. He's a rescue who was kept in a small pet store cage. He comes right up to me or my boyfriend when we call him. My girls run the other direction. His cage is open right now and he was running around, went and took a quick nap, ate some lettuce and is back out.

I have read that if they have access to their cage that they will run back to it to use the bathroom. I can't do that with my other cage or I would.
