What you'll hear here a lot is that bigger is always better and that you should consider getting a second piggy, and that if you did get a second piggy, then it wouldn't be big enough. But typically, for one pig, a 2x3 is standard size. :3
However, you'll also probably hear some comments about the ramp. It's highly recommended to have a ramp with a lip / rim at the sides to prevent the pig from falling off and inuring itself.
That said, that coroplast is a really awesome color.
It looks like you could take the loft down and use it to make the cage a 2x4 (I think you could tape or glue the loft chloroplast to the other chloroplast to make it big enoughI. If there are no rescues near you can look for someone rehoming on guinea pig zone, pet finder, or Craig's list (but watch out for breeders there).
I only have hamsters so I doubt they Will be trying to eat my pig, Lol. What about the fleece bedding? I just wash it once a week? What do I put underneath to soak up the pee?
The minimum size for two pigs is 2x3 grids, the preferred is 2x4 grids (according to the table on the front page of this site). I'm sure your little piggy will love the extra space!
Those size requirements are for female pigs. For males you go one size up meaning the minimum for 2 males is 2X4, the preferred is 2X5.
My ramp has no lip and my pigs have never fallen.
