Would this work for guinea pigs? My two love to be OUT, but it's a hassle carrying them around in their basket all the time.

My Chorkie is little over 2pounds. This is literally a pouch for her. She barely stick her head out and she has some sense about jumping out. Not sure about guinea pigs. However I think you should try it! Because if it works you can take your pets with many places! Love this sling!

Hmmmm.. might be too big for guinea pigs and they might bury themselves/hide inside and not know how to stick their heads back out to breathe. Or they might escape unless you can find a way to secure them.

I think it would as long as they are not too heavy. My yorkie weight 5 lbs and fits in there with room to spare. I would recommend this to anyone it is very convienient to have and I am also able to take him just about anywhere with me because he his contained in the carrier.

It's a pretty big bag for a guinea pig, even my 5 pound chihuahua only her head sticks out. I think they'd be basically in a cave in the bottom of it. You could add a folded up towel to the bottom though maybe that would help? My daughter ended up just making a fleece bag for her rats that she wears around her heck and it hangs chest height.

I don't think so. Our hamster just fits inside the tubes and guinea pigs are bigger so I doubt this would be a large enough home for guinea pigs.

They probably can. My ratties just jumped and climbed out of it. If it was higher, they probably wouldn't have gotten out. I even duct-taped the two holes shut and they still got out. XD Little trouble makers. Since guinea pigs are bigger, they might like it. I've never had a guinea pig, though.

This would be big enough for 2 guinea pigs but keep in mind that guinea pigs don't like to climb. You're better off getting something without different levels since they would be happier and the cage would probably be cheaper.

I think the size of grating for the bottom might be too large for guinea pig feet. It would work if you wanted to put a smaller mesh on the bottom.

It definitely can contain a Guinea Pig's ferocity. ;-) You can't pick the cage up from the top half. The latches keep the wired top in place but aren't strong enough to secure the bottom part if you lift it. I pick it up from the bottom or slide it around. It's very easy to clean. Lift off the top half to dump, clean and add new bedding.

No. I use it for rats and I wouldn't even want to put 3 of them in there at a time. Probably just 1 guinea.

Our guinea pigs are 2 1/2 and 4 lbs. They both fit in separate containers. I would not use it for a long time. We have one for short trips, but we have a small dog carrier for overnight trips.

i'm trying to use the small one for my guinea pig now, shes just starting to use it some of the time. it might be taking longer because she is already two years old and is used to using her whole cage as a litter box.

Its not big enough, this is for a hamster. Even if it was big enough, guinea pigs should not use exercise balls, it is very bad for their sensitive spines. No joke, google it.

Too small for a weekend home. I transport two guinea pigs in mine and only use it to carry them. They can not turn around in it well. It is fairly fragile and one of the hinge clips broke when it was accidentally knocked onto the floor (24" drop). The "latch" to close it is a "push in" oval that pops out into a cutout. Not easy for students to use. Worked well to cover with a towel to keep them warm while being transported though. Good luck.

I'd say probably....unless you had an extra large guinea pig. I don't think it would be the best toy for them though.

i got this for my guinea pigs and it works just fine. if you only buy one its pretty small, i read all the measurements before hand as not to make a mistake and i purchased 2 of them. they link together very easily. and they have enough space to run around and play with their toys. i always make sure to squeeze the hooks closed when i put them in so they wont get out. its basically all about the owner responsibility. i read some bad reviews but it was all about size my friend had purchased some before i did so i know they were sturdy. as long as u get more then one i suggest so your pet will have more room it will be fine. they are also easy to store as they fold up nicely. i got this for my guinea pigs and it works just fine. if you only buy one its pretty small, i read all the measurements before hand as not to make a mistake and i purchased 2 of them. they link together very easily. and they have enough space to run around and play with their toys. i always make sure to squeeze the hooks closed when i put them in so they wont get out. its basically all about the owner responsibility. i read some bad reviews but it was all about size my friend had purchased some before i did so i know they were sturdy. as long as u get more then one i suggest so your pet... » Read More i got this for my guinea pigs and it works just fine. if you only buy one its pretty small, i read all the measurements before hand as not to make a mistake and i purchased 2 of them. they link together very easily. and they have enough space to run around and play with their toys. i always make sure to squeeze the hooks closed when i put them in so they wont get out. its basically all about the owner responsibility. i read some bad reviews but it was all about size my friend had purchased some before i did so i know they were sturdy. as long as u get more then one i suggest so your pet will have more room it will be fine. they are also easy to store as they fold up nicely. « Show Less

I have two ten pound poodles, and put them in a wire carrier (got it here) that fits right inside the basket, and I've gone at least 200 miles with them in back over the years, and the basket is still rock solid. I worry about them jumping out, but if yours is trained to stay in under any conditons, I'm sure it would hold him... just be sure you have a "floor" of cardboard or carpeting on the wire.

We had two bunnies and it seemed to be very small for the both them. They did end up chewing through the metal fence that is around it and escaped. However we now have our guinea pig in it and she loves it.
