Cagetopia XL (2x5 grid) uncovered C&C cage with Wide (2x2 grid) Loft. The assembled cage footprint is 30" x 76”. We use durable, powder-coated grids (not vinyl), and our Coroplast bases are secured with reusable, plastic rivets (not tape). Suitable for 2-5 guinea pigs.

Loft access is via our reinforced Coroplast ramp with 3.25" side walls -- proven safe for all guinea pigs providing them security while you can see the fun action. The top edges are reinforced to prevent chewing. The top flap is well-secured to the loft with our Cagetopia Wire Ramp Hooks for easy maneuvering.

WIDE LOFT POSITION

While we show the wide loft straight up and down over the cage, we actually recommend OFFSETTING it by one grid (shown here) as you can't really reach all the way to the back corner for good cleaning. Please select the Offset Loft Support Kit option on this item below.

OR, our French Doors offer some additional access, but it takes more effort and is still a challenge retrieving your pigs as they'll run to where you can't reach them. It's better to offset the wide loft by one grid length if you have the space.

XL Cage Dimensions

  • Lower level = 27" x 69.5" = about 13 Square Feet of space.
  • Upper level = about 4.5 Square Feet of additional space
  • Total = about 17.5 Square Feet of cage space
  • Exterior: 30" x 76" when assembled = you will need a table space of about 2.5 feet by 6.5 feet to accommodate this cage.

Images & Portal Opening

Please note that some images show our older style loft with a standard grid at the top of the ramp. This grid has been replaced with a Portal Grid which allows a larger opening for the ramp to swing up for easier cleaning and access.

Upper Levels are Good For

  • Reducing boredom by enriching the spaces available.
  • Provides a covered area over the kitchen to provide a sense of security which encourages its use.
  • A get-away area for some guinea pigs who may not get along.
  • Exercises different muscles than flat running, which can help keep them more toned and healthy.

Coro Height Options

  • 6" walls on all four sides. This is the perfect height for keeping bedding contained, visibility to pigs, good airflow, and safety.
  • 10" walls on all four sides for Hedgehogs only.
  • 12" wall on one long side as shown. Three sides are 6". May help keep hay and bedding kick-out more contained with active guinea pigs, especially when not using fleece, but generally 6" walls are just fine.

  • For a 12" wall on a short END (behind a Kitchen), we recommend our Backsplash, which is removable for cleaning.
  • 12" back walls are NOT compatible with Patios, Lookout Lounges, Cage Dividers, Piggy Perches, or Midwest Mezzanines (without cutting into the Coroplast back wall -- doable).
  • High walls all the way around a cage are not recommended for guinea pigs as it blocks too much airflow as well as your visibility.

Deluxe Cage Kit Includes

  • (24) 14" Grids in black or white (powder-coated & SAFE inner holes 1 3/8")
  • (2) Portal Grids
  • (38) Connectors in black or white
  • (1) 27" Ramp in Coroplast color of your choice and edging to match grid color with grey Carpet.
  • (1) Pair of Ramp Hooks for ramp attachment
  • 4mm Coroplast bottom in your choice of 16 colors!
    The base is pre-cut and pre-scored with pre-punched holes to secure flaps using snap-in plastic rivets (not tape). Coroplast base is creased and folded for shipping, which creates an indented "crush" line. This does not affect the functionality of the cage. It's barely noticeable when fully assembled.
  • Rivets for fastening all coroplast flaps
  • Cable ties that match the grid color. (Using cable ties to reinforce the grid connections helps make the cage extra tight and super secure.)
  • Easy-to-follow, color assembly instructions with photos
  • Two-page Guinea Pig Care Sheet

Please NOTE about the Cage Bottom

The cage does not have grids on the bottom. They are unnecessary. The cage is designed to sit nicely on a flat surface -- a table top, a desk, the floor (if it's draft-free), etc.

However, if you desire, you can make a cage stand out of grids. Please see our matching XL Cage Stand if you are interested in a cage stand.

How many Guinea Pigs will fit in a 2x5?

  • Up to 3 adult guinea pigs comfortably. It varies a bit depending upon your group. This is actually the recommended size for 2 males. Males typically need a bit more room than females. They need space to get away from each other when they want to.
  • It would be possible to house a larger, well-bonded group of 4, perhaps as many as 5, but that would really be pushing it.
  • ONE

    guinea pig needs at least a 2x3 grid-sized cage. This cage could temporarily be divided to accommodate splitting a bickering pair or separating a male and female.

    You just need our "Cagetopia Cage Divider - Wall of Silence - for Guinea Pig Cages" down the middle of a 2x5 to instantly create two 2x2.5 grid cages. But, as we really recommend a 2x3 for even one guinea pig, using this cage to separate them should be a temporary situation.

Ramp Side


The side is as you are facing the loft. Our normal cut side is left. 


I KNOW this cage will fit in my space!


I've read the cage dimensions and have measured my space. GRIDS are 14", NOT a 12" FOOT! For example: 2x4 Grids needs 2.5 x 5 FEET of space.

Amazing cage! It really is huge I thought I measured correctly and it was still bigger than expected. I absolutely love it though!! While building it I found that the instructions were a bit hard to find and understand. It took us about 2 hours to put the whole cage together but it is so worth it!!

Reply: Ah, yes, I was really in a rush in getting the instructions online. I'll be working on the next round of revisions soon and appreciate the great feedback! Videos will be coming as well. Thanks, Teresa
