Couldn't you make a 2x4 C&C cage? It would save you some cash I bet.

We currently have the Midwest Habitat. It meets the size requirements for one or two pigs, and it's expandable, so you can make it as big as it needs to be.

That said, we are going to upgrade to a c&c when we move in about a month. I do like the MH cage, but the lid is difficult to get on and off, and it can pinch fingers (my 6 year old got caught in it once, and it was not pretty). Another problem we've had is that one of our pigs can climb out of it easily (she's Houdini), but I'm not sure she'd be any better contained in a C&C, lol. I just have to make sure we keep a lid on any cage she's in. A plus to the C&C cages is that you can customize them and really make them your own. The MW Habitat can be expanded, but customization options are more limited (you can't build up, for example).

I found our MW Habitat cage for $50 on Amazon.

Take a look at Guinea Pig Cages Store for some awesome cages that are better then MGH cages.

I have a midwest cage and I like it for the most part. I would make a pad for it though as it is very hard to clean the urine stains off it.

I started out with a midwest cage and purchased the one without the top for $32 brand new on Amazon. I loved it and never had a single problem. My two pigs were happy and popcorned constantly. I use bassinet (yep, for babies) protectors on the bottom plus a towel layer, then my fleece. I have never had any problems with urine getting onto the bottom of the cage. Ever. My pigs are also litter trained for the most part. We still have accidents (they're piggies!) but they both use their litter pan in the corner of their cage. I say it's a fantastic starter cage! I used zip ties to make it more sturdy and that really helped!

I have one, and love it. It's a pretty nice size, but you will probably need 2 if you have more then one pig.
Ive never had a problem with urine stains or anything, but that's because I lined the bottom with puppy pads.
It's a nice cage if you are too lazy to build a c & c cage or cant find the materials.
