So I have been thinking about making a new diy guinea pig cage. I have three draws that if joined together would be perfect and very large... about 3 square metres for 2 guinea pigs. I was wondering how high guinea pigs can jump for them to get to different sections. The lip of the draw is about 7 inches tall. I can't really cut the draw edge because I don't have the tools to do that, but maybe, if the jump is too high, I can make a ramp to go over the top? I'm not sure and any advice would be appreciated[emoji15][emoji5][emoji5]

Seven inches is a little high, particularly as they age. A ramp would be better.
