"I ordered two of these cages as well as mouse food and recently cat food. Excellent products and I am thrilled with the speed of the delivery! One day and it comes! I will definitely continue to order from chewy!"

— Trisha

"Cage was wonky right out of the box, warped bars, lid doesn't sit nicely on unless you fiddle a bunch with it, because one corner pops on, and then another will come off. Managed to get it all fitting and locked. Placed my daughter's mouse in it who's been living in a larger wire cage just fine, but..."
