What I did was step on a piece of cube. Then I pulled it up, until it was in the shape of a triangle. Next I Taped an ordainary place mat to the top of it. I placed this in the cage and my guinea pig ran around the cage like a nut case! "He popcorned so high that I think he could jump over the cage! Nonstop fun while he runs through and climbs over his new tunnel :)

Here are some pictures:

Ive got 2 diff grid tunnels, one just like yours.

With another i used 2 grids and bent them into U shapes rather then V then I placed the 2 U shapes one facing down the other facing up and ziptied them together. Instant bunk beds, its a favorite lounge spot for my all my girls.

This idea has been around for quite a while. I have several grid tunnels/hidey spots. They are in different shapes. I cover them with fleece in the winter for warmth but in the summer I either cover them with a nice breathable cotton or leave them uncovered for air circulation and so the girls will be cooler.
