I know this has been asked a couple times but did not see an answer. What did you use to secure the plexiglass?

The television sound will scare them. I think it is a bad idea to house them right below it.

What else did you use in making this? I can see the 5 tables but what did you use for the flooring and what did you use to mount the plexiglass?

Awesome! I’ll probably build something like this next week, inspired by your build.

What do you use for attaching the glass? Is it something I can buy ready, or do I have tomake it myself?

The pigs will try to eat the lacked wood! This looks nice but is not really how it should be for them to be healthy!

  I had an enclosure like this before for 2 years and they never tried to eat the lacked wood 🙂 I think “plastic pigloos” etc. are much more dangerous. The complete furniture is off wood, and sometimes they are nibbling on the houses, but never on the table-legs 🙂

      I think it depends on how loud you watch TV 🙂 We watch in household noise level and it really don`t scares them 🙂

My dogs would think we had made a snack bar for them if we had an unenclosed cage like that.

    How? My niece and nephew have 2 guinea pigs and this would be wonderful. What do you use on the flooring to protect it from urine?
