We started our business selling BluestoneCommerce Cages on eBay just a few years ago because we wanted to provide guinea pigs a larger and healthier environment to live in. Recently we’ve branched out and have begun listing our cages on Bonanzle, iOffer and now – this web site.

Our house has always been a zoo filled with different pets from fish to snails, tadpoles to frogs, a mouse to guinea pigs, a bunny to our dog. We currently have five guinea pigs (4 babies and their father), two frogs and our terrier dog Cosmo, sharing our house with us. Our rabbit “Bun” was almost 12 years old when he passed away on New Years Day 2009. Bun, Scooter and Cosmo (the 15 lb. “wonder pig”) have had many photo shoots for our pictures that appear in our BluestoneCommerce Cages listings.

    Hello. I am wondering if you offer a version of your deluxe colonial homestead cage with integral storage base in a slightly bigger size. (2×5 grids, instead of 2×4)

    Im asking because I have already purchased some piggy bedspreads (fleece bedding system) in the 2×5 size and it would be a good chunk of money down the drain if I could no longer use them.

    Also, would it be possible to have the opening for the ramp (second story) in one of the corners of the cages, versus the middle? I’d need to cut a hole in my piggy bedspread for the second story and I think it would be easier to do this in a corner of the product.

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Hi, Bob,
    Was looking on twitter for another friend with a name similar to yours and chanced on your article about writing sympathy notes. Nicely written. I’m wondering how you branched off from your guinea pig and guitar interests to writing about writing; interesting! Since you do like to write notes, I want to invite you check out an online system from which you pick a card, type a note (which can be in your own handwriting and signature font), and after you click “send” we print it that night, put it in an envelope with a stamp, and mail it for you for only about $1.44 per card, including postage. You can also download pictures of your guinea pigs onto the cards:) When you go to my website, http://www.sendoutcards.com/lauranewman, you can send two free cards on me and see how fun and memorable it is! Enjoy! Yours in laughter, Laura

    I bought one of your 3 story guinea pig cages last year, I need the black replacement trays with the run down part as well. Where do I get these from?

  5. michael says:

    I was wondering if you sold the grids separatly. I saw on the cage that has the 2nd level (with the triangle tunnel that there were pieces 4 squares wide. Do you cut them yourself or do you buy them like that? I need pieces like that to make my cage fit better in a cabinet without having overlapping pieces. I really dont want to have to cut them myself either and have sharp edges my piggies could get hurt on. If you dont sell them, any suggestions on where to find them?

  6. bob says:

    Hello,
    BlueStoneCommerce Cages uses the plastic-coated metal grids that are 14 inches by 14 inches. We do cut the grids ourselves to fit the triangle tunnel you were referring to. We do not sell the grids separately but only with the Cage Kit. You will probably have to cut them yourselves because we do not know where you can find grids that are cut a smaller size than 14 inches. Thank you for your interest in BlueStoneCommerce Cages!

    I have two guinea pigs but they need to be separated. Do you guys make one of your wonderful cages that are divided i.e. bottom level, top level and a ramp inbetween the levels that they cannot get access to each other but still be able to see each other through a grid of some sort? Thanks!

    Awhile back, I ordered your next-to-largest two story cage for my two pigs, and everyone is happy. What I am wondering is, do you sell replacement ramps and replacement coroplast trays? Please let me know.

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    I know your cages are ideally made for guinea pigs. However, I was wondering if you think they would be good for rats too. I am getting 3 baby rats soon and I was really impressed with how the system of these cages works. However, I don’t know the spacing of the wiring on your cages and I wonder if they would be big enough in height to hang things for the rats to climb on… I know that as a rule of thumb, baby rats need about 1/2″ bar spacing to keep them from escaping… What is your opinion? Thanks!

    Hi,
    I’m just wondering do you guys make the cages yoursevles?

  22. Brent Elrod says:

    I have your 3 story cage for our guinea pigs. I need to replace the two side walls that go around the ramp openings on the third and second stories.
    How much are those two parts and I would prefer the chew resistant tops if you have them?
