Answer 1

You're very right! The cages are much too small at the pet stores, you home made cages are the absolute best. Boxes would get soggy, but there is a very popular homemade cage for guinea pigs called the C&C Cage. This is made using cube grids you can purchase at Walmart, Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, etc. And the bottom is usually coroplast, a material used for making signs. For the bottom of my cage I used shower curtain lining from Target, though. Here's a link to more information: http://www.cavycages.com

Good luck!
