Hi. I'm new to the site, and new to guinea pig ownership.
We built our little guy a 2x3 C&C cage over the weekend and then tried to build a top for it out of the left over cube pieces. Unfortunately, we can't make it quite work right. We currently have it so that it folds back to allow for opening, but it is not very sturdy. I'm afraid if my kitties decide to jump up on top of it they will fall right in. How do you make a top for it that is both easy to open, but safe for kitties? I've looked at the pictures and it appears that people use modular closet shelving for the tops. How much shelving is needed for a 2x3 cage? How do you attach it? Are there instructions somewhere on the site?
And how come nobody ever told me what wonderful pets these little guys are? Ours is so sweet. I thought they were just like big hamsters. But they aren't. They are quite lovable and playful.
Thanks so much in advance for any help folks can give.
I'm sure this question has been asked and answered 1000 times, but I can't find any good answers yet.
