  • Well Engineered, Badly manufactured, Housed 12 young rabbits successfully
Color: Platinum Gray Size: 36.0"L x 25.0"W x 63.3"H
We have a rabbitry. I purchased this last fall (a three story cage) to put in the garage for sick buns or raising orphans or such, where I want to be able to keep a close eye on them all day long. I didn't put it together until recently though when Covid19 struck, the high school closed, and we had to very quickly move all the FFA meat rabbits meant for our county fair to our house. We hurriedly put it together and ended up using it to raise a mixed litter of 12 NZs and Calis. This product was not meant for this, and there have been some challenges, but I still couldn't be more happy with my purchase. The bunnies are active and (relatively) rough, and it has held up very well. (I wouldn't recommend putting this many rabbits in this cage long term though. It really isn't large enough, but desperate times...) My daughter and I put it together in an hour or so. It wasn't hard at all. I'd read the reviews and was prepared for it to be much worse. Each level had at least one panel whose peg was not set straight. A couple of taps with a hammer straightened them and solved the problem. The final product is very sturdy and well made. The knobs on the front don't line up, but they do shut securely. It definitely needs pee guards for rabbits. The first rabbit I put in it was an older buck who potty-trained right away but even he tended to miss occasionally and poop all over the place. The younger rabbits only sort of potty-trained (they much prefer to sleep in their toilet and poop right next to it). I wrapped the cage in plastic to try to help, but I'm going to have to find a way to add pee guards for future use. I cover the pans in fleece or old towels (towels work better, more absorbent). Changing them out is pretty easy. To keep it clean now that the buns are bigger (currently 4.5 lbs), I have to change out the towels daily. It takes about 10 minutes if I move the buns first. The pans all come in and out easily. I started off having the three levels closed to each other (so 4 buns per level) but they pretty quickly figured out how to unhook the ladders so that they could go visiting. There are ways around this (turn the upper pans) but I decided to let them all live together. The holes between levels are small and I doubt they will be able to get through them for more than a few more weeks, but a mini-rex sized rabbit would do just fine. The metal ladders are great and the buns use them. The plastic ladders are crappy. The plastic ladders tie with fabric onto the cage; the buns chewed them loose. Since buns don't actually need the ladders I tossed the plastic ones. One of the reasons I wanted to try this cage was the double opening doors. I really like that. It's much easier to get a buns out than the traditional wire cage hole. The buns can go from the bottom level to the very top in no time at all. In evaluating the buns, my daughter says they've got great back muscling from all the climbing. That's definitely another benefit of this cage. Overall, I'm very pleased with this cage! ... show more

  • Has cons, but a fantastic cage!
Color: Platinum Gray Size: 36.0"L x 25.0"W x 63.3"H
Got this cage for my kit, he loves it. Pros: - HUGE in my opinion. I think 3 ferrets could stay in here and still have plenty of room. - Bars are perfect to keep ferrets inside (My kit is small, and he can't even try to squeeze through. His nose can fit, but there's no way he could get stuck). No way they could chew through the bars. - Good Quality - Comes with ramp covers to protect their feet - The ramp connecting the top and bottom portion can be hooked to the bottom of the top portion, making it so the two levels are separated. Could be good if you have two different pets or small pets that don't get along! - Could probably fit squirrels, guinea pigs, chinchillas. Maybe not rats, but I'm no expert. - Things easily attach to the cage, like water bottles, food bowls, etc. - Comes with pretty good quality trays - Things can hang from the top and bottom levels (perfect for hammocks!) - The shelves are pretty big, and not so high up that if they fell or jumped off, they would get hurt (My ferret sometimes forgoes the ramp in favor of throwing himself off the shelves) - Good doors. - Wheels on the bottom, easy to move. - Has a shelf on the bottom. Cons: - My ferret likes to poo in corners, and if your ferret is not very great with litter (like mine) then the poo can go through the bars, and get on the floor. Not fun. - Adding to that, poo is difficult to clean off of the bars. I need to train my ferret better! If your ferret has no problems with litter boxes, you have nothing to worry about! - The doors can be loud. Sometimes I close them and the metal sound scares my ferret. Might just be a problem for my particular ferret. Not loud if you're careful, though! - They can climb the bars. Not a problem for me, my ferret just climbs level to level, but if you have a ferret who chews on things close to their cage, it might be a problem. ASSEMBLY AND SHIPPING: - It says no tools required. I think you need a rubber mallet, and pliers. It comes with a little metal screwdriver. We used a regular sized one, but if you didn't have one I'm sure it would work fine. - YOU NEED AT LEAST 2 PEOPLE TO PUT IT TOGETHER. Unless you're superhuman, you'll need someone to hold a lot of things in place. (if you have been able to build this on your own, you're amazing!) - You have to put some of the sides into place by hammering them in, which is why I think a rubber mallet would be helpful. We couldn't be bothered to find one so we used a tennis shoe. That worked fine. - It is HEAVY! We carried it upstairs, and it's a two person job! They delivery guys had to bring it to our doorstep on a dolly! - Make sure you read all the way through before assembling. There were times we had to backtrack and take sides off to put other sides on. - Doesn't take long to put together. - It is loud to put together, which should be expected. Imagine metal hitting metal. Maybe don't put it together at night. - The box was damaged, but nothing inside was. I expected that because shipping a big object is difficult. - The box had stables in the sides of it to keep it closed. We used pliers to take them out. I don't think there's any other way to take them out! Great cage, seems like it will last a while. I would highly recommend this cage! ... show more
