Wow, impressive! How did you apply their names to the side? I'd love to do something like that. Thanks!

When you go on the website type in pet bed in the search and it came right up for me. It's now $6.99 for purple and orange colors or $3 more for other colors with free US shipping. They also sell them on this website under classifieds for $12.99 and free shipping, that's where I bought mine, darn didn't know someone else had them cheaper :( Oh well I would have only saved a couple dollars for the color I wanted, I got the blue also and it came super fast.

No advertising please. I've removed links to the site.

How big is the inside dimension for each level?

Sorry. Each level is 24x48. as big as a midwest cage each. They have a total of 16 sq. ft. They both access the "ramp" constantly so thats not an issue.

While I think it's a really cute cage, I'd be a little concerned about ventilation. You might want to consider removing the back panel and adding plexiglass like you have in the front to get more air flow in there.. I'd be worried about ammonia build up since you have two guinea pigs pooping and peeing in there and it's enclosed. How do you clean the tube?

I'm not sure. It looks like it's a good idea but it looks so dark and small. I also find tunnels annoying because 2 piggys can't use it at once mine actually got stuck once so I gave up using all these types of pipes.

The tube is cleaned with a curb brush as well as power washed… I make sure that it is all 100% safe.. And about the ammonia build up, It's nothing to worry about.. While it looks so enclosed, it's actually not..

Amazing! I love the design and all the great stuff inside and out (the tube/tunnel is a great and fun idea!). Your boys sure are spoiled :)

That doesn't total to 16 square feet of floor room. Only one level counts.

Personally I'd string or tie up some lights , ofc out of the pigs reach so they'd have some light in there. But it looms beautiful

While you might want to take some other members advice on tweaks I love your use of the space you have! I live in a small place, and am likely moving to a smaller place, so I can really appreciate someone using space as efficiently as possible.

One thing I do love about this cage is the fact you can see straight in and watch your piggys from anywhere in the room x
