I love hedgehogs, they are THE cutest things ever! Back to the question. Sometimes, if you put straw, grass, cotton, wheat, or weeds in a hedgehog cage or it's habitat, it will make a little nest of it's own. All hedgehogs have instincts, and one is making a home for itself. However, if the hedgehog doesn't make a home or nest, here is how to make one:

Here is what you will need:

* a bucket, small cardboard box, or anything else enclosed on the SIDES (they don't prefer bright colors, go for a natural brown or green)

* straw, grass, wheat, cotton, or weeds (they mostly prefer cotton and straw)

First, you will want to take the bucket and set it in front of you. Next, place the straw, grass, cotton, wheat, or weeds into your bucket. Then, use your hands and make sort of a little scoop in the material. To do this, cup your hand, and start pressing down the material. If you keep this up, it will create a sort of scoop or dip within the "nest." If you follow these excact steps, you will make THE perfect home for your little baby! Trust me, I would know! Thank You!

Hedgehogs need about 2.5 square feet of clear floor space. That means 2.5 square feet of space not taken up by the wheel, litter pan, food dish, water bottle, and sleeping bag.

576 sq inches, which is a grand total of 4 ft by 4 ft (or 6 ft by 2 ,as mine lives in) Point being, decidedly /not/ the size of a hamster cage.

Is 3ft by 3ft by 2ft with 1 by 3 and 1 by 2 lofts big enough for a dwarf rabbits cage?

The HRS recommends a cage at least 4 times the size of your rabbit stretched out. However, the size you listed seems to be adequate for a dwarf breed (~2-3lbs) as housing. Remember that rabbits still need to exercise outside of their cage every day to keep them healthy.

How big is a guinea pig house?

For a cage you need a minium of 7.5 feet for 1 guinea pig. In reality, a guinea pig can live happily in a smaller cage which measures around 3 feet x 2 feet. guinea pigs are grazing animals and they do not need a lot of space. If you have an outdoor cage with a wire base and move it around on fresh grass regularly, it will be very happy in a smaller space.
