Is there any way to keep the guinea pigs from chewing the canvas?

Not really. If they are going to do it your not going to be able to stop it. I did have to buy a second one and my bunny hasn't chewed this one but I put it on against the directions.I pu it on the outside with the bars inside that seems to have curbed the chewing.

We never had that problem. Just make sure that they have plenty of other things to chew on in their cage.

It's certainly possible. The canvas (tan) is pretty thick and good quality. The vulnerability is in the black ventilation netting. I think my dog punctured a hole in the meeting and it was a free for all from there. If you cat is just a normal scratcher, it's probably fine. I don't even think the tan canvas would snag, but if the cat is trying to escape, it will probably get out.

I would be concerned that he/she might be able to slither out the bottom, which is just corrugated cardboard not attached to the cage. I guess you could reinforce it somehow, maybe with masking tape, so that it does not separate.

Depends on the size. If it were two larger Guinea Pigs it would be a little tight. Also the green plastic sheet that goes underneath is soft and would get torn up fairly by your critters!

We had no problems with our two little guinea pigs... they like it a LOT, so it only lasts about 2 months, but no problems stored in that time. It is quite dry stuff (in a good way), I think it could go quite a while.

We use flaked wood shavings for our guinea pig. Because of the depth of the bottom, we can fill it halfway and not have him kick it everywhere. But he is much smaller than a rabbit.

I completely agree. The grass is a little softer and might stay green a little longer. Both our Guinea pigs love this product, and it saves you money in the long run.

I have the same issue when my pups jump up on the panels.....I've found weaving bungee cords in and out thru adjoining panels helps significantly. Hope this helps! I still LOVE the pen, so much better than crating! :)

This is more like a fabric. The opening between the mesh is very small. If they can't get there beaks through it they won't be able to peck it away.

I haven't had this problem but wiht the wire mesh, you could run a wire around the mesh and to the hanger on each side. I think that would keep a crafty squirrel out!

I do not think so. The cover is very strong and a heavy weave fabric is not chewing. One of our dogs tends to chew but that kind of the fabric she is not chewing anyway.

No, I do not think so. This is a very light mess netting. In our experience, they could chew right through it. We use fine mess metal fencing to thwart these critters.

It was a natural grass ball. I know the bunnies played with it (although it didn't have a bell inside like I thought). I think your guinea pigs would enjoy it, if they are also playful. :)

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.

Honestly... I place my dog on the canvas side and just shake it out!!! Sorry not more help

No. Three sides are secured with zippers. And if they really want in, they can just cut through the canvas.

Not that I could see right off, depends on how they attach to a cage. I'm sure you could come to some arrangement of it. I would be afraid of them chewing through the cage.
