Rotastak Adventure Zone Animal Housing, S


Spacious but flimsy
Building instructions not that clear so quite time consuming to put together. Plenty of space when built though. Curved tube that came with cage kept falling apart when trying to get it to fit into the holes on the cage and had to be held together with tape. Bought a box of tubes from pet shop so hamster could get from one side of cage to the other as i didn't trust it not to break when he walked on it. Also awkward to clean as you have to take it all apart then try getting it back together again. Hammy seems to like it though and loves running through the tubes and sleeping in his attic bedroom!
gerbil loves it
great for gerbil.... tunnel a little bit flimsy especially with kids around.... keeps the bedding in the cage which is always an issue with gerbils ...they do love to dig!!!!
Not a happy bunny
This item was delivered to me today and I have spent 2 hours putting it together. My main gripe is with the quality of the item, which is poor to say the least. The cheap plastic is almost impossible to put together and one of the three connectors appears to be melted and deformed so I have had to put it together in an alternative way and omit the large tunnel that connects the two main sections together. I am sure when we used to have hamsters in these cages when I was a child, they were of much better quality. I have so little trust in the way it's made that I've had to sellotape the lot together to reinforce it... as I say, not a happy bunny/hamster!

Savic Suite Royale Navy Blue Small Animal Cage 95 x 63 x 159 cm


Love at first sight
I thought i owned the best cage i could, right up until i first saw a picture of this. It was everything a rat cage should be, beautiful, sturdy, all metal and easy access. I had to own it, but held back as i wasn't sure the price tag was justifiable when i had a perfectly good cage as it was. In the end my birthday came and i got a wonderful surprise, and roughly 2 years ago i finally got the cage of my dreams.

Since then it has lived up to my imaginings, it is a really sounds well made cage. Assembling it is probably a 2 man job, though i have heard of people managing it on there own. It's actually not bad to put togehter, i found the instructions nice and easy to follow and it went up in about an hour (with some faffing as i got excited). At this point i discovered my number 1 top tip - do not assemble downstairs if you intend it to live upstairs... After splitting the cage in half again we got it upstairs and reassembled, then came top tip number 2 - assemble in...
Perfect cage.
I bought this cage for my four rats and it's perfect for them. Not great at writing reviews so I'll list...

positives:
- Really a very big cage. If you have adult rats or ferrets they NEED something this big. You could fit up to 5 or 6 adult rats in it or 2 or 3 ferrets.
- Very easy to clean. The trays just slide out and back in.
- Practical. The wheels make it easy to move and the shelf at the bottom is really useful for ratty things.
- Well designed to hang things off - the middle platform rests on top of bars.

Negatives:
- Takes a long time to put together. Took me and four other people about 3 hours.
- Ours came broken, one of the hinges on the door came completely snapped in half, so the door hangs off whenever it's opened. Of course we didn't realise this until we'd finished assembling it, and considering what a challenge that was, it didn't seem worth it to send it back.
- The trays are a little shallow if you're planning...
Fantastic cage!
I love this cage, it was pricey, but definately worth it.

My only slight dissapointment was that the images and reviews seem to suggest the kick panels are on the doors, meaning the plastic trays can slide out easily for cleaning (this would be brilliant and make cleaning so easy!) The cage I received is not like this, the kick panels are fixed to the cage and the doors are just mesh all the way down, this means if I was to remove the trays for cleaning I would need to manouvere them over this kick panel....So I just scoop out all the dirty litter with a dustpan and brush. That said, it's no more difficult than the old cage I had, I was just looking forward to easy cleaning!

My four boys really love this cage, they have so much space, and I wouldn't hesitate to add a couple more rats, there's definately room! I think this cage really lends itself to customisation, as it's so easy for hanging things on, and the full doors mean you can reach right into the...

Savic Park 6 Hexagonal Small Animal Play Pen


Guinea Pigs
I bought this play pen for my 2 guinea pigs. It is big enough for them to have a run around in to have a break from the cage. The bars are suitbale as my pigs are 3-4 months old and they cannot fit through. I use this inside the house in the winter months, but it did not come with a base so can get very messy on the carpet. I put towels down. It came with a net to fix onto the top for when they can go outside in the warmer months (however I have not used this yet so cannot comment on the quality of it). The one thing I would say lets this product down is that it doesnt fold up, I find that I have to take the pins out every time I want to put it away and then put them back in when I was to re-assemble it. Apart from that, it does the job it was made to do.
Great for my rabbits!
I bought this as a temporary solution for one of my rabbits who didn't have a run. Quick delivery and looks just as it does in the photo.

It's very easy to assemble although I used my own tarpaulin to cover the top rather then the mesh cover as any rabbit that can reach on his/her hind legs can chew through it. It can be assembled in a hexagon or square shape and you can use as many or as little of the panels as you wish.

I would advise this is only suitable for small breeds of rabbit and not big enough for giant breeds.
I like it
Arrived in double quick time, as using Amazon Prime... well packaged and on unwrapping it contained the seperate panels and pins. dead easy to assemble and you could obviously buy another set and make a bigger run... no escaping baby bunnies, water bottle fits on just fine. I'm very happy with every aspect of this purchase/

Ferplast Combi 2 Hamster Cage with Accessories


Excellent cage for dwarf hamster
We bought my 6 year old daughter this cage for her Christmas present and then we have adopted a dwarf hamster last week. "Rosie" the dwarf hamster loves it and has settled in very well! I've cleaned it once and it was very easy to do. The wheel is silent enought. It did take time to put together but was simple enough!
hamster cage
I like this prouduct as it is modern. however my pet has escaped from it a few times; and now we have lost him as he escaped into a different room. this is because the sheet of instructions is not very clear. i didn't put the top on correctly. if i had put it on correctly he would'nt have escaped.
another issue is the drinking bottle. whenever my hamster drank from it, it dripped out on to the sawdust surrounding it, so i had to replace the saw dust round that area every day.
apart from these issues my hamster did love this cage as the compartment with the wheel in was fun to explore. he also loved climbing across the top of the cage.
my hamster did love this cage.
Too small
Your hamster deserves better. These cages are all about looking attractive to kids rather than giving the occupant a nice life.

Kerbl Outdoor Pen, 144 x 112 x 60 cm


Good Size
Got this to attach to a hutch for 2 guinea pigs and to move around the garden as a stand-alone run. Its great and they love it but BEWARE if you have baby guinea pigs - my little one ran straight through the bars. Luckily we caught her and we have put additional wire around the bottom until she is bigger. Roof comes off so its good for the kids to sit in while holding the guinea pigs, just in case they run off.
FIRST CLASS
RABBIT LOVES IT........EASY TO MOVE AROUND GARDEN, HARDEST PART WAS PUTING IT TOGETHER, TOOK ME 15MINS WITH THE HELP OF AN 8 YEAR OLD.
rabbit run
arrived really quickly. very easy to put together. rabbits love it. I bought a couple of hooks and a chain and attached it to rabbit hutch. As just a run its easy to move around the garden.

Ferplast Duna Fun Hamster Cage with Accessories


Brilliant and Best cage so far!
I have had three hamsters with three different cages and this one is by far the best. I don't know why people are saying it's too small for a Syrian Hamster because there was plenty of room for her. I had to replace the wheel because the little ridges gave her cut feet and it was very noisy. I put in a Silent Spinner and had no more problems. It was so easy to clean, and to put back together, even when I was nine (I am now 12) I worked it out myself and it is very easy. Sadly, my hamster Cassi passed away two years ago, but I still have the cage. I am now planning to get some more Syrian hamsters because they are so friendly and make the loveliest pets.
Cleaning: 5/5
Fun: 3/5 (5/5 if you buy more toys etc.)
Space: 5/5 (for one Syrian hamster)
Durability: 5/5 (only damage is on of the catches on the ladder snapped off because I dropped it whilst I was drying it after cleaning)
I am going to buy many more of these cages when I start my breeding programme this...
cage
Our hamster' Ebony' had almost chewed a hole through her old cage so we ordered this larger one for her. She loves it! Her favourite activity is to swing along the lid bars and then drop to the bottom of the cage, or jump from the top shelf to the lower one. As you can tell she is a bit of a thrill seeker.
Super Cage for All Hamsters!
We bought two of these cages over two years ago for our Syrian Hamster. We also linked the samller version of this cage which eventually became our Syrian Hamster's sleeping area and this bigger cage the play area. You can add lots of variations of tubes and extensions to this cage which makes it so modular.

Sadly our Syrian Hamster passed away a few days ago, but now we have bought two Dwarf Hamsters and the cage is suitable for them also. The only thing we needed to do was remove the metal wire part of the cage to stop the little ones from squeezing through it! This part of the cage easily clips off so that the base and plastic part fit together to make the cage secure. The only thing is that you can't add tubes when you reduce the cage.

But I would definately recommend this cage for all Hamsters!

Home N Play Deluxe Hamster Cage


Ours is good...
Have one of these (bought from an alternative source to Amazon). While it is a little tricky to put together due to the way its made, its more than robust enough for purpose, and easy enough to take apart for cleaning and reassembly (unlike our other fancy Habitrail cage, which while impressive and more expensive is a pain to clean out).
I can't help but feel however that some of the reviewers are some how 'doing it wrong' or got unlucky on the quality checking as we've got a pair of Roborovski Hamsters aka 'The Smallest of all Hamsters' and theres no way they can fit through the bars or the edges.
It's not to bad
After seeing some reviews about this i wasn't sure what to expect but. when i got it and put my Daughters hampster in itwas alright.. there is gaps at each corner but my hampster cannot get out of it.. the ''front door'' is very stiff we use the top hatch to get hampster out.. but apart from that my hampster loves this... i would say a very good buy
DWARF HAMSTER
Ideal for a dwarf hamster def or a baby hamster to start off. The wire is a bit tricky to push into base - but does go with a push. Good little complete set.

Rotastak Small Animal Housing Natro 200, Green


THIS IS AWESOME
it took two days to deliver and it said that it would come from 3-5 days so that was REALLY good.When I opened the box it was all neatly laid out and everything was packaged up properly and nothing was broken.It was really easy to set up and it came with a little hide out and a wooden bridge.The only thing that is annoying about this item is that when I tried to put the tubes together it was really hard and stiff.but after all that and once I put the bedding down Lilly (my hamster) loved it.She loves running on the wheel (that also came with the cage) I would give this a 10 out of 10.
okay item
Hi this is a good item for dwalfs the house play area the holes to get inside are to small for a syrian he can stand on it thats all, this clips to hold it on are rubbish as one came broken and we left it off so far no escaping so thats a ok i guess, its a good size and looks good my old hamster syrian loves the freedom not sure of the tubes yet. The assembling is okay found the tubes stiff to put together.

Its a nice cage can do with things being better but would recemmend if you are after a simple cage with room for them to move about and explore .
what you see is what you get.
what you see is what you get, ideal for dewalf hampsters and normal size ones as well.
well made and the hampsters seem happy.

Kerbl Outdoor Pen Galvanized


Happy bunnies
This run is great. Lightweight, portable, sturdy and safe for small animals thanks to the cover. I've had rabbits and guinea pigs in them and they love it. Easy to move around on the grass so keeps fresh grass available all the time. Would recommend these to other people - very simple to use.
happy bunnies! (how to build it)
I was worried about this cage being too small for my rabbits but its a great size for them, my nephew can even sit in it with them.. as could I and I'm 20! I think it could easily take about 4 or 5 rabbits at the most.
As for other users saying they don't think its very secure, I have had no problems with it at all. The top netting is very tightly secured at each corner with added velcro in between corners for added security, the lock is also very good as it has no give and will not open slightly when leaned against. Because it is made of individual panels it can be made higher or lower at certain areas to suit slightly bumpy or slanted terrain but still watch out for rabbits digging under of course.
The only issue I have had with this is one of the nets attachment holes broke the first time I put it on and I will need to fix it and also the shaded side could do with being a bit thicker as I was using it on an extremely sunny day and have albino rabbits, I had to put a towel...
Guinea Playpen
Fantastic easy to use large playpen for our guinea pigs. Great to use indoors and out. We have used it on the lawn when the weather has permitted and also indoors with the cover over to stop the cat getting in whilst we clean out their hutch outdoors.
Very versatile can easily be shortened to a six or even four panel depending on where it's being used. Would also recommend Net Bunny as their service was fantastic, very quick delivery, item exactly as described.

Trixie Natura Outdoor, Galvanized, 216 × 65 × 116 cm


Good value and size
One of very few runs that I consider large enough for rabbits. It really gives them space to run and play.
A secure roof keeps them safe from many predators, but if being used as a permanent run on grass would need a mesh base to stop them digging out or foxes digging in.
The only reason I havn't rated this a 5 star is it can be difficult to reach in to catch my two rather naughty bunnies, who after an afternoon playing on the grass, are not so keen to return to their permanent enclosure which is paved.
Just remember to provide your rabbits with a box or tunnel for shelter and if it's sunny to ensure they have shade.
Great Bunny Run
Recently purchased this great run for our two bunnies and not only do we love it but so do they.!!!!! It enables them to stretch to their full height, run and be as active as possible. Wasnt sure at first if this would be the right size but on delivery was absolutely well impressed and definetly made the right decision.
Rabbit Guinea Pig Playpen Run
Absolutely ideal for my rabbit and guinea pig. Lots of room for toys, tunnels and for them to run and jump about. Easy to move about the garden as well when required.

Rotastak Pink Palace Small Animal Housing


Lovely but ....
Our new Syrian loves his cage - he took a little while to get the hang of the tubes etc but within 3 hours he had accessed everything and done a test drive on the wheel. The only problem is that he LOVES the tube, it is where he stores his food, moves all the bedding down,uses it as a toilet and sleeps in it - it is a pain to clean, but he is very visible. His sleeping in the tube is very funny, as he gradually slips down, a milimetre at a time, and then rushes back up.

We are persuading him to sleep in the bed room, and appears to be getting the hang of it!
Best cage ever
Ignore all the people that can't be bothered to put a cage together. Yes it's "a bit fiddly" to put the tubes together, but once they're together, you never have to take them apart ever again, so get over it! Coming from someone who has owned and bred hamsters for 15 years and still has 2 of them and recently purchased this cage (the pink version of the other Rotastak cage) I can tell you bar none that this is the best cage ever. It iIS big enough for a syrian, and the best part is you can save up for a few months and then buy more parts for it, assemble it how you like, get outer wheel attachments etc. You can build it differently, it's like the hamster gets a new cage every time you clear it out if you want. If the little buggers wee in the tubes, it doesn't take 5 mins to spray hamster-friendly disinfectant on them and rinse with the shower hose, leave to dry while they're rampaging in their ball.
Could not recommend it more, much more fun than a boring bar cage. If they're...
what a palace
I purchased this item for my grandaugter who describe it as brillent her hamster is female so nice and pink and very girly.Arrived very quick especeally seeing it was a bank holiday.
