Piggy Summer Fun!
Give your piggies awesome cage enrichment INSIDE your current cage! This Cagetopia Creative setup is a new spin on our Lookout Lounge. The Lookout Lounge needs at least another 7 inches of length outside your current cage. If you are tight on space and can't go longer, the new MINI MEZZANINE is a great way to expand your cage without giving up easy cleaning access or visibility of your guinea pigs.
Your pigs will LOVE hanging out in the Mini Mezzanine. Two guinea pigs will fit nose-to-nose or any other positions they prefer.
Do you have a BULLY PIGGIE?
If you have a guinea pig at the low end of the totem pole in their social heirarchy, the MINI MEZZANINE can provide excellent respite from being picked on by other piggies. A piggie is well protected from others given the design of the space.
Dropdown Grid Wall
Would you like to sit on the floor and be able to comfortably reach in and access your cage and piggies? Now you can. This functionality makes grids a better solution than acrylic windows.
All you need are 2 Short Half Grids for the bottom, 2 Tall Half Grids for the top, and a Wide Mini Grid.

For the MINI MEZZANINE
Please note, if you have a Lookout Lounge (platform, ramps, and grids) you can reuse these to create the Mini Mezzanine! You'll just need to order the Mini Moon Grid for safety and extra the Short Half Grids if you wish to create the canopy.

Mini Mezzanine
Putting the Mini Mezzanine together is really quite easy! Using the Ledge Grids, you'll want the shorter end to slide in-between the coroplast of the base and the grid of the base. Secure the the Ledge Grid to the base grid by going one grid square in from each end of the ledge grid and zip-tying the two together. PLEASE NOTE, when zip-tying the ledge grid to the base, zip-tie at a diagonal angle, this creates an even stronger hold and ensures the best stability. To attach the Mini Moon Grid, line up the base of the Mini Moon Grid UNDER the Ledge Grids, you'll want to get as close to the center as possible, and attach using the zip-ties and the same diagonal attachment style.
To attach the ramps, first attach 2 of the Short Half Grids to the edge of the Ledge Grids on either side of the Mini Moon Grid. Next take the ramps and zip-tie them to the Half Short Grids through the circular holes punched in each corner, top and bottom.
Before you can rest the base of the Lookout Lounge on top of the Ledge grids, we highly recommend taping the back corners together, just to ensure no debris gets through the small slats in the corners.
Finally, to create the canopy take a Short Half Grid and insert it into the horizontal space of the connector in the corner and to the middle connector. Zip-tie at each end and to the corner to keep in place. Repeat on the other side and to finish off, drape some Fleece over top to create a cozy space!
