Yaheetech 37-inch Metal Ferret Chinchilla Cage Indoor Outdoor Small Animals Hutch w/ 2 Front Doors/Feeder/Wheels for Squirrel,Black

Happy with this purchase for my chinchilla. I was looking for an affordable replacement for the original habitat purchased with my chin. But they live longer than your average small animal, can be up to 15-20 years. This was a reasonable price and it looked solid. I was also looking for something with tiers so my chin has more free movement and space. The other products I was looking at near identical or similar were around the 300 range. So this was a steal, and an upgrade from her original space. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this stood up to the test of time and wear and tear. I had no expectations for this, simply looking for something new and this was far better than I had anticipated. Very happy with my purchase. I also loved the coloring of it, neutral/modern and matched my interior perfectly. It would match most interiors. The legs mounted on wheels was also such a convenience for cleaning and moving out of the way. My girl lived out a long, happy life, yet the cage is still in pretty good shape. I thought it would probably rust a lot more than it did, but it only rusted in the corners on the bottom grate… but those were her potty corners so it held up surprisingly well against the urine – especially since not cleaned daily. This was a really good buy especially since a chinchilla can be a long-term commitment.

The media could not be loaded. I was worried the bars would be too far apart, but it hasn't had any issues keeping my boys inside.It does rattle slightly when they run around or climb so I'd recommend something quieter or modifying it slightly to decrease noise if you plan on using it in a bedroom.It was easy to setup and took me about 15 minutes on my own. Looks great in my space.

For the price, this product is excellent! The metal is very thick and sturdy. It goes together very easily, though you may need two people to put it together as it takes some alignment. The shelves snap on easily, but I learned don't try to put pressure on them in the middle to snap them into place. This just results in broken clips, which was entirely my fault, and nothing to do with the quality or design of the product. It's very roomy and easy to roll. The one thing I have an issue with is that the bar gaps are almost are too wide. For rats, this could be an issue depending on their size. Medium to larger sized rats are good. Younger juveniles or babies will not be able to be contained in this enclosure. For other larger animals like ferrets or guinea pigs, it wouldn't be an issue. Overall, great product for the pricing.

I really like the price of this product I got the 52 inch one for my 2 ferrets.They seem to really like it!I would have given this cage five stars, but it was a bit hard to put together and the bottom tray was a bit flimsy not sturdy as I expected it would be.But definitely use the video to put the cage together with, as that was a huge help!the directions for me were confusing although I’m sure they are good, the video help me more!Cons :1It didn’t go together super easy but it all fit together and only one of the pieces was partially broken, it was one of the ladders hook was broken off, but I believe that was due to the shipping, even though it said fragile on the box.. the box was pretty beat up.2The doors were not as big as I was hoping, even though I read the size measurements lol I thought that my litter box would fit through the doorway..it did not, but I slid out both trays and put it in through the bottom and that worked just fine!3The shelves seem pretty sturdy once in place, but do you feel like if you’re rough with them could easily break.4The bottom pull out tray is very wobbly and not very sturdy at all I would say it’s much more floppy than any of the other plastic parts,But as there’s a metal gray above it I can see that they probably didn’t think it was necessary to be sturdy although I would change that if I were the company selling this cage.5Had to pay $19.99 for shipping even though I have Amazon prime, which isn’t a big deal but was a con for me.Pros :1It’s a good price for the size of the cage especially compared to other cages on the market.I just wish it was covered under Amazon prime shipping lol2Ones put together I think it looks very nice, I got the black cage I don’t know how the other one looks or feels in person, but this one feels smooth to the touch and feels like it has a nice coding of something that will keep it from getting poo stuck to the bars lol3I like that it comes with wheels they work very well, I don’t see any way to lock them in place, but it doesn’t seem to be an issue so far.4Comes with the food and water bottle, although I would hope that they would change the food dish to a hook on food dish as most animals that would use a cage would typically either tip over their food bowl or scooted around but otherwise it’s a nice added feature.5I like that the ramps have a curve to them and little grip wavy things on them.Overall I really like this cage, I did put two of the levels together to make a larger level, because it is such a far drop from the top otherwise, that way if they were to fall they wouldn’t fall straight to the bottom of the cage from the top, as that is a risk.. especially with ferrets they tend to play and get excited and jump around lol I did put a piece of cardboard over the bottom as it’s not good for them to walk on the wire bottom and a blanket folded up, As well as a small fleece blanket on every level for Comfort and so they can sleep and be cozy.I think this cage most suits chinchillas and ferrets and like squirrels but I don’t think it wouldn’t work so well for rats or hamsters unless they were very large.. as they might be able to fit through the bars.. if you want to DIY your own levels it might work for a rabbit I’ve seen someone in the comments used two of these cages side-by-side hooked together with wooden levels and ladders I think that would work!I would definitely not recommend for guinea pigs they need a one level place.I put two hammocks at the top and the two levels put together so I ended up with seven levels if I count the hammocks or 6 levels if I use just the cage stuff that it came with because I put two together.Overall I would definitely recommend this cage for two ferrets, but If you have more than two ferrets, I would suggest getting a larger cage or connecting two of these together, unless they were only in the cage for sleeping, mine are free room in part of my home, except for when I’m sleeping or if I have to be out of the house for a while.

I got this last minute for some rescue rats, and I am legitimately shocked by the quality. It's sturdy, well made, and came with very high quality casters. It's not wide, but it's definitely tall and more than adequate for three rats. Five out of five stars, for sure. My only problem is the plastic tray, which the rats could chew their way through. It comes with a metal wire floor, but that's not really good for rats - they could slip a leg through and break it, or wind up with bumble foot. A piece of cardboard over most of that solved the problem, and created a kind of latrine where the cardboard doesn't cover. Works great for my boys.

Rats continue to escape have every inch of it wrapped in chicken wire fence. And every tiny hole with chicken wire still getting out weekly always adding more and more chicken wire.Would be perfect for larger animals. I really like this cage and the price was good.

This is worth the price for sure. It’s very durable and sturdy. Very easy to build. Perfect for our Bunny.

You will want to pay a bit more to get something without metal wire bottoms . If you do what i did you will have to become an engineer, come up with some ideas, run around trying to find things that you can use do some arts and crafts and try and secure flooring that won't hurt your animals feet. Good cage for a few small birds but not rodent appropriate. Would not recommend for your rats as the bars are 1 inch apart and they will get out.This cage was so infuriating to assemble. Not capable to assemble with 1 person when cage sides are warped and roon isn't bent properly to fit. I though i was about to bend to roof in half to get it on the cage. Did a number on it getting it to fit.

Putting it together was a struggle as the top didn’t fit correctly. I had to use a lot of force to get a couple screws in and couldn’t fit the other two so there’s a big gap.I have two male rats (3 months old) and they were able to squeeze through the bars with some effort. I put garden wire fencing around the cage to solve this.But overall, with a few of my own adjustments, the cage works fine and the rats seem happy (: I like how easy it is to change the layout of the levels/platforms to keep it interesting for them.
