What Size Cage is Best for My Pigs?

In reality, there is no best size for a guinea pig cage. The simple rule is: the bigger the better. However there are minimum cage-size guidelines that many guinea pig rescue organizations and guinea pig advocacy groups recommend. A quick search on the internet will reveal the following approximate de facto standards for minimum cage sizes:

• One guinea pig: 6-7 sq. ft.
• Two guinea pigs: 7.5 sq. ft.
• Three guinea pigs: 10.5 sq. ft.
• Four guinea pigs: 13 sq. ft.

Because guinea pigs are social creatures, it is recommended to keep a minimum of two guinea pigs together. For this reason, if you want your pigs to enjoy an optimal environment, you need never consider a cage under 7.5 sq. ft.

In general, commercial cages (I like to refer to them as "pet store cages") tend to be under 3 square-feet. Commercial cages much larger than this are difficult to find and are apt to be quite costly. For this reason, conscientious guinea pig owners tend to gravitate toward a popular class of do-it-yourself or kit cages commonly called C&C or Cubes and Coroplast cages.

Do I Have to Worry About the Floor?

Definitely! Wire floors or floor with grates are hard on your guinea pigs' feet. Harsh metal grids can trap toes and legs or otherwise damage your guinea pigs' delicate feet. Imagine if you had to spend your entire life walking on metal bars suspended a foot off the floor -- in your bare feet. Even worse -- imagine trying to run on that surface.

Incidentally, the same goes when choosing a multi-level cage with a ramp. The ramp surface should not be covered with metal grids. Bottom line: avoid cages that make your pet walk on metal bars or grids at all. For best pig health and safety, your cage should have a smooth plastic or metal bottom.

Does My Guinea Pig Cage Have to Be Fully Enclosed? Does it Need a Lid?

It depends on your situation. If your guinea pigs are sharing your home with "domestic predators" (most notably cats and toddlers) you will definitely need a lid. If your home is free of these types of threats, then a lid is not needed. Most guinea pig cages and pens tend to have at least 14" walls. Although guinea pigs do like to jump for fun (commonly called "popcorning"), they are not known for being great leapers and cannot leap anywhere near 14-inches high. Trust me -- you will never see a guinea pig in the NBA. (Not only can they not jump, they also play terrible defense.) In this case, not only is a lid not necessary, it is not recommended. We find that when guinea pigs are housed in a cage with no lid, it encourages more interaction with the guinea pigs. (It's not necessary to open the lid to pet them or pick them up.) A lidless cage will also take much of the hassle out of chores like feeding the guinea pigs and cleaning the cage.

How Large Should The Door Be?

Many cages are designed with access doors that are too small. Small doors, make it difficult to catch and pick up your pets. If you've ever owned a guinea pig, you will certainly agree that they are "scurriers". When picking them up, they don't just calmly sit there while you pick them up - they scurry! And if you've ever tried to corner a scurrying guinea pig with one arm through a tiny hole...

Some innovative cages offer large fold-down "tailgates". These models are engineered so that the entire side of the cage is hinged and swings open like the tailgate on a pickup truck. This allows you to reach in with both hands to scoop up your guinea pig. It also makes cleaning your cage a much easier and more efficient operation. If you've ever tried to shovel 25 lbs. of wet bedding through a small door and then turn around and shovel 25 lbs. of clean bedding back in through that tiny hole...

It's much easier to scrape the bedding out into a waste container and then just pour the new bedding in directly from the bag. Yes, door-opening size really is a big deal.

Summary

There are other factors, of course. But this article has given you four very important factors to consider when selecting a cage for your guinea pigs:

1. Make sure the cage is large enough for your guinea pigs to live a healthy and comfortable life.
2. Avoid wire floors. They are extremely hard on your guinea pigs' feet and legs and pose a very real injury threat.
3. If possible, consider an open pen or cage. It makes it more convenient to interact with your guinea pigs and also to clean and maintain your cage.
4. Large doors and openings are important for making your life much easier. Not only will they lower your frustration level, they will save you a ton of time.

Pickup Lines and the Three Second Rule

There are many ways to pick up women, but no matter the method, body language is perhaps the most important.

The main obstacle is how to approach the woman. It’s much the same as the lottery. If you don’t play, you can’t win. You can kiss good-bye your dreams of seeing a multitude of women treating your bed as a revolving door if you don’t make the first move. Times may be different nowadays, but generally speaking, men should make the first move. With that said, why are so many men afraid of taking the plunge?

Most likely, this reluctance stems from doubts such as:

• What am I going to say?

• Will I be rejected?

• Can I pull it off?

• She is way out of my league!

These thoughts are normal, but they can seriously injure one’s game if they are not gotten rid of. The best way to do this is the three second rule. This rule dictates that one should approach her within three seconds of seeing her. Following are the benefits of acting with such speed:

• You don’t have time to doubt yourself.

• You will act more naturally.

• She will interpret your promptness as confidence

The three second rule is important. Each time it is employed, it will become easier, and your confidence will grow exponentially. For this you must develop your stories and things you say when in a seduction situation. Such knowledge can arm you with the necessary confidence to go and talk to wome. In order to learn stealthy techniques to seduce women of extreme caliber have a look here.

Door not opening properly on the inside of pickup truck?

Good morning all. I have a 1996 Chevy Silverado. It has been getting gradually harder to open the door from the inside. Has anyone experienced this? Do I need to take the panel apart and lube all catches?
No, it's not the hinges, although, they were draggin a bit - WD40 did the trick. My issue is when pulling the handle from the inside, it's not "catching" properly. I almost have to roll the window down and open from the outside.

That's a common problem. The interior handle is the cause. It is riveted in, so you'll need a drill and rivet gun to replace it.
