I was wondering if it is possible to make a second level for a Midwestern guinea pig cage since the grids are kinda flimsy. Any ideas?

It's possible. @Melissenda and her husband made one using closet maid shelves, which I copied thanks to her generous help.

That is a picture I took. Ignore my dirty shirt sitting on top of the cage....which is obviously a perfect place for it to be. Smh...
My boys were unable to get along in that space, unfortunately, so I ended up taking it down, rearranging my entire living room, and expanding to a 2x5 C&C so I don't have any other pictures.

But yes, it is possible.

I cut the wire shelves to size using a hand saw and bolt cutters. Plastic caps cover the ends to protect from sharp edges. Zip ties hold it all together.
Lots of work, but sturdy.
