FerplastCage for Hamsters and Mice KARAT 100 Small Rodents, Two Floors with Accessories, in Glass and Metal

Pros:BigBase is made of glass so escape proof and makes it easy to cleanWire topper with shelves - allows for great air flow, you can keep the wheel, food bowl, water bottle and sand bath all up in the top section so they can't get buried, this also allows for the lower section to be completely filled with substrate for digging.Two front/side doors, nice size. Plus one top door, bigger than the front ones. These doors allow me access to all parts of the cage without removing the top.Two wooden shelves, they are thick, sturdy and one side is waterproof. (I waxed the other side with a pet safe, homemade wax for ease of cleaning) They are easy to clean and I was able to fit a 11 inch (30CM) wheel above the lower shelf (positioned as low as it would go).Also comes with two wooden ladders, like the shelves, great quality, they hook onto the shelves and are able to move up and down without risk of falling.ConsThe topper isn't easy to put on, but maybe with practise it'll get easier. (Easier with two people)I feel that it would be easier if the topper had handles.**********Conclusion:All in all a great cage, I would highly recommend it for gerbils.It looks good, it's well made.I love having the front doors, it makes interacting with my gerbils so much easier and it's better for them as you're coming at them from the side which is less scary.I also like having the bigger top door as well, I can do smaller cleans and take things in and out through the top door, and having all three doors allows for easy access to all parts of the cage.The base being glass means you get a good view if any tunnels are made up against the glass, I really enjoy watching the gerbils digging.

I bought this for my 6 female mice. I've had it for 2 days so far and they seem to love it. It is a lot bigger than their old cage. They are all still young mice and have tons of space to explore. My old cage was wooden and started to smell of urine after 2 months, so upgrading to a glass / wire cage seemed like a wise move. The only downside so far is I came home today to find flicked mouse poo all over the floor as it flicks out through the bars, I guess this would be the same for any wire cage though. It was a bit fiddly to fit the metal cage top to the glass bottom, however once it slotted together it was worth it. I didn't bother with the locking clips, it seems ok without.

I have 2 of these cages for my animals, I am trying to get a 3rd... first picture was my first attempt, and the 2nd picture is what I have received today, looks like the delivery drivers have enjoyed a nice game of football with it, delivered by UPS this is now 2 MONTHS I have been trying to get this new cage, and so far they can't deliver anything but refunds.I will say if you do manage to get one of these cages intact and undamaged in anyway, AND your lucky enough to receive your item before next Christmas, it does offer plenty of room for your furbabys, stable platforms and generally a great apartment for your wee ones... but out of the total of 4 I have received 2 usable ones, so your odds are around 50/50.... so goodluck, great item if it survives things these use to drive the vans 🤦‍♂️

I bought this cage for my gerbils. It has lots of space for them to burrow in the bottom, and shelves above where you can put a wheel, and a bed, and enrichment for them.It certainly isn’t a cheap cage, but provides small animals lots of space.Personally I would only recommend it for hamsters, gerbils, or mice.It came very well packed and no parts were missing or broken!

Extremely happy with this. Was very easy to put together as the parts basically came preassembled so all you had to do with put some clips on the glass tank which allows the metal cage part to sit on top of it. It can be a little bit fiddly at times getting it to sit on the clips properly but can be done without any help. It comes with black clips that lock the metal cage to the base too, but I have left those out as I don't see them as necessary and it's easier to clean the cage also.Setting up the platforms was also easy but I found a pair of pliers helps screw the hooks on a bit tighter, just have to be careful and slow as to not split the wood as I imagine it might get split, but I have not had this issue.The cage also comes with a hamster house, which separates into two pieces. I don't use it as a house but instead I found the bottom piece quite useful as a hamster toilet. The food bowl is fine, but I don't use it as I have my own which I prefer.I had to use the wheel which came with the cage for a few days (before my proper one arrived). I think it's about 7" in diameter which is fine for most smaller animals but I have a Syrian hamster so got a 9" wheel instead. I think he liked the wheel that came with the cage though! But it is very, very noisy and it rattles on the side of the cage and also seems like the weight of my hamster angles it which makes it even more noisy!The glass tank is great and makes it easy to clean. However, I think my cheeky hamster has been burrowing away at one corner and has started to chew away at the seal. I don't see this being an issue though as I suppose it is inevitable and I highly doubt he would be able to break out by chipping away small parts of the seal in one corner, as the tank is very sturdy.

It is huge for mice but very good indeed. I progressed up from the karat 80 to this the 100 and I am impressed but for one thing that I have learnt. I would advise anyone buying any of these cages is give the shelves a few coats of varnish or sealant before use. The coat given on them is very, very thin indeed and the urine soaks into the wood and discolours it also, makes them hard to clean and not hygienic at all. Other then that, excellent five star cages….Oh and one other thing….it took two and three deliveries for both the 80 and 100 models respectively as they are very, very badly packed and on arrival the glass tanks were broken so check (shake the box and listen for broken glass) before accepting delivery.
