When studying how guinea pigs play, eat, sleep and interact among themselves, researchers at Midwest discovered a variety of things about guinea pigs and their need for a guinea pig cage that will provide them with the appropriate amount of living space. That's why the researchers at Midwest developed the Midwest Guinea Habitat Guinea Pig Cage, as it provides guinea pigs with enough space to exercise, explore and to socialize. In addition, Midwest researchers discovered that the more space there is within a pet cage, the easier it is to keep clean. Housing your guinea pig in a spacious cage along with proper care can result in fit, healthy, well adjusted and more entertaining guinea pigs , along with a happier relationship between pet parents and their guinea pig friends!
