GuineaLoft™ Guinea Pig Cheese House (Double) V2 - The Ultimate Guinea Pig Hideout by Seasoned Owners Who Tried Everything Out There - Exclusive by Guinea Loft
V2 Update: The Cheese House V2 lid is now openable, making it easier to clean out the inside and interact with shy piggies who may not like coming out of their hidey. V2 also now features a bent-beam handle: it's a sleek design that allows you to pick up and handle your house easily.
Traditional igloos are too bulky, and they take up excessive space inside a cage and leave little room for guinea pigs to roam. Large igloos like this can often be taken over by one dominant piggy, excluding the others. Additionally, igloos are aesthetically unappealing pieces of plastic that can make your habitat look tacky.
Traditional igloos are also unsanitary as guinea pigs tend to pee and poo frequently while resting. The floors beneath an igloo can quickly get filled with soiled bedding, and since igloos lack ventilation, the floors become wet and dirty, forcing your guinea pigs to sleep in their waste
Over the years, we've also had many fabric-based houses and hideouts. Although they start out cute, they all become soiled and unrecognizable, soaking up urine and clinging onto shedded hairs, requiring special and frequent cleaning—a common issue with all fabric-based accessories.
The Cheese House serves as a modern alternative, occupying only half the space of traditional igloos. With bubbly air holes, it resembles a block of Swiss cheese.
Bullying is eliminated with the Cheese House. Featuring two doors and separate rooms, a dominant pig can only control one half of the hidey, allowing others to access the remaining space.
Each room has a bottom with holes for waste passage, enabling guinea pigs to rest on elevated dry beds instead of damp and soiled bedding
The Cheese House is also a game-changer for cleaning. Unlike the usual stressful routine of chasing and snatching your guinea pigs, the Cheese House allows for a gentle process: 1, guide your guinea pigs into the house; 2, close the door; 3, easily take them out with the hidey to clean the cage. It's stress-free for both you and your pets. Once you experience this ease, you'll never go back to grabbing your piggies the old way.
Igloos don't feel like a den due to their big size and large front opening. In contrast, the Cheese House features a smaller opening located at the end, creating a more secure and closed space for small animals.
Igloos are opaque and limit visibility. The Cheese House features a front panel made of clear acrylic, allowing you to observe your guinea pigs and enjoy the adorable sight of their little faces side by side even when they are sleeping.
