Maybe you can order some from e-bay.
HINT:*get a larger amount(say,50 cubes) so you never run out, and incase you want to build a bigger cage someday*
Hope I helped

I don't know how much it would cost for shipping, but you could order cage kits from this site.

You may be able to work something out, if not please stick around because we have members from all over. I'm sure they have similar supplies, may just be called something different.

Good luck.

Try amazon.com
Have you seen Alternative Cages - Guinea Pig Cage Photos ?
You can build your cage with different material if you cannot find cubes.
Some people build their cage with white closet wire shelf. Those might be easier to find.
I built my cage with wood and plexiglass, and use vinyl floor to line the bottom.

Does amazon ship to Greece? I know they have the cubes...

Also, what about companies that supply display equipment for trade shows? They sometimes have grids and shelving that would work...

Here's s photo of my cage. Each floor is 8 feet long and 28 inches deep. The plexiglass walls are 10 inches high. There are 2 pigs on each floor.


Did you look at the link I posted earlier? There are many types of cages.

My cage is made of wood and plexiglass. There are many cages in this gallery that are not made of cubes. If you take a look, you might find other materials you can work with.

I think this one is a good example of cage made with white shelving.
