Who Is This For?
✓ Best For
- • Foster cat or small animal caregivers — Suitable for isolating and providing play space for fostered animals.
- • Pet owners willing to DIY reinforce the pen — It is a very well put together cage if you are willing to take the time of putting it together, and that you can still put manipulators blocks in the opening to stop the smaller escaping if they can manipulate it or if you get a kitten or when they are older.
✗ Skip If
- • Busy pet owners — The cage needs time and expertise to carry out all the zinc fixed, and fixing the broken parts.
