question about cc cage add-on

[bretticade]

Now that I have correct grammer on my title lets try this again heh.

I have a 2 X 4 CC cage that my 2 new guinea pigs live in. What I want to do is raise the cage off of the ground with another box of cubes. Basically I would build a base consisting of 8 cubes all cable tied together to hold the coroplast floor. Then I would left that piece ontop of a 3 sided base made up of more cubes, leaving the front open to store supplies.

Would this be ok for the little piggies. Anyone else thats done this(I know I've seen a few)have any tips?

I'm sorry, but I really can't help you because I have never done that with my cage. But that sounds like a good plan I think it would work.

Yes, check out this photo gallery for ideas. https://www.guineapigcages.com/photos/showgallery.php?cat=522

It wasn't the grammar that stopped people replying to your other post, it was probably that no one had seen it yet. Sometimes it can take up to 24 hours to get a reply. Please just have patience and wait it out instead of posting another thread with the same question.

Yup, that would work. Later you may have a little sagging on the front(unless you use plenty of zip ties) which can easily be fixed by adding a grid or other kind of support right up front and under. It shouldn't be ziptied or connected so you can still remove it for a sec if your pulling out a box of hay or piggy supplies.
