What are C&C cages?
C&C cages are basically a set of wire plastic coated grids around 35cm square, that you clip together to make a cage for your guinea pigs.
They connect together with the plastic connectors, or you can attach them together with cable ties if preferred.
In the base of the cage, use a corflute tray, so nothing falls out onto your floor like hay and poops.
This means the floor has a waterproof barrier between the guinea pigs and your floors.
The cages can be configured in many different ways, single or multiple levels.

Are C&C, Ozzy & Kavee the same size – basically yes.
The sizing on both of these are very close, so the regular C&C liners I make will fit Kavee as well.
*** TO BE SURE – check the sizing/specs of the cages you have purchased, usually on the suppliers website/docket. – You can always email me to check your sizing before you order.
All Deano fleece liners are made a couple of cm bigger for a relaxed fit in your cage.
FLEECE CAGE LINERS:
Here at Deano, we’ve been making fleece cage liners since 2013.
WHAT ARE THEY? – Deano fleece cage liners have three layers, all stitched securely together. There’s nothing to pull out or recover – it’s just a simple ‘mat’ that you can wash, over and over.
The top and bottom layers are polar fleece – this fabric works as a wick to pull liquids into the middle absorbent layer and keep it there – like a disposable nappy. This means the outer surfaces are dry and comfortable for your pets.
WHATS INSIDE: The liners contain a non-toxic, highly absorbent cotton based core inside which absorbs the liquids. There is no waterproof layer in my liners. Liquids will not leak out through the bottom, thus no need for any plastic barrier.. A plastic layer delays air drying after washing.
Deano liners need nothing else on top or underneath to make them work for you – no carefresh, no puppy pads, no shavings, no towels ….nothing!
Save yourself time, money and water by washing one single item – instead of many bedding layers MORE INFO, CLEANING TIPS AND ONGOING CARE: About Fleece

Standard grids for C&C are generally 35cm x 35cm, and can have several bar spacing configurations. All are safe for guinea pigs.
Let common sense prevail, there’s lots of scaremongers out there making all kinds of claims, its a personal choice.
ADDING ANOTHER LEVEL TO YOUR C&C CAGES: – LOFT LINERS – wide or narrow
NEED A RAMP GAP IN YOUR LOFT LINER? Will it be on the left or right side?
RAMPS FOR C&C CAGES: How the ramp attaches will affect how the liner works and fits your cage.
Check the pics below to see how your ramp will attach to the upper level. Then you can choose the option you need for the loft liner. You can also choose for the ramp gap on left or right.
OTHER LOFT AREA LINERS:
Our new C and L shaped loft liners – they will cost the same as the full sized liner – we’ll make you a FREE POTTY PAD with the bit we cut out – use it under the cubbies, in the hay kitchen, wherever you like. No extra charge.
If you need a different configuration, please pop a note on the checkout form when you pay. Alternatively, drop me an email with a sketch of what you’d like me to make for you.
HOW TO ORDER – On the product information, select IS THIS A LOFT LINER – yes – then choose an option.
TWIN RAMP GAPS – Yes, from October 2021 we can offer all loft liners with ramp gaps on the left and right – twice the fun for piggy zoomies! How to order – Choose TWIN RAMP GAPS when you select your loft liner sizes.

WHERE TO BUY GRIDS AND COMPONENTS TO MAKE YOUR C&C CAGE:
STOCKISTS OF THESE CAGE TYPES – I do not sell the cages or components. The grids are also sold online as ‘wire cube storage’ etc, check the number of squares per grid, to ensure small piggies can’t wriggle through. Do shop around, avoid the hype, and buy what suits your needs.
