Highlighted Reviews

— Lauren

"Loved this so much, until a critter stole it! Will probably get another soon!"

— Elizabeth

"It's pretty but useless as a feeder. The two sides of the latch don't meet so there is no way to close the cage. Anything put in falls out immediately."

Bottom Line

We would be cautious about this product due to functional issues but recommend it for appearance.
