Is this cage suitable for a hamster?

No. The maker states it is not suitable for hamsters. It is aimed at chinchillas, ferrets, small cats and similar-sized pets.

How many levels does it have?

It has three platforms connected by three ramps, plus a hammock for resting. The layout gives climbing pets vertical space in a small footprint.

Can I move it around the house?

Yes. It sits on four wheels that lock in place, so you can roll it between rooms and secure it when parked.

How do I clean the cage?

The bottom tray is removable, so you can slide it out to change litter and wipe it down. The platforms and ramps can be wiped in place.

What is included in the box?

The cage, three platforms, three ramps, a hammock, the removable tray and a manual. Assembly is required.

Is it big enough for a small cat?

It can hold a small or young cat, but the roughly 20.5-inch square floor is tight for a full-grown cat. It suits short stays better than full-time housing.

Our take on the Steel Small Animal Cage

The PawHut D51-153 is a tall steel cage on wheels, about 20.5 inches square and 44.7 inches high, with three platforms, three ramps, a hammock and a removable litter tray. The height and multi-level layout give climbing pets more room to move than a single-floor cage, and the wheels let you roll it between rooms and lock it in place. It suits chinchillas, ferrets, young or small cats and similar-sized pets; it is not built for hamsters, and the roughly 9-inch doors are small for reaching into the upper levels. Against simpler wire cages it offers more levels and easier cleaning, but the thin steel and shallow tray are the usual weak points owners report.

What reviewers say

Owners of chinchillas and similar pets generally find the cage roomy for its footprint and like the wheels and pull-out tray. Common complaints are flimsy bars, a tray that is too shallow to hold bedding, and fiddly assembly.

What people mention

Build qualityCriticisedOwners say the steel bars are thin and can bend with handling or a determined pet.
CleaningMixedThe removable tray makes cleaning easier, but it is shallow and bedding spills out.
SpacePraisedThe three levels and ramps give climbing pets more room than a single-floor cage of the same footprint.
MobilityPraisedThe locking wheels make it simple to roll the cage between rooms.
AssemblyCriticisedPutting it together takes time and the instructions are hard to follow.
DoorsCriticisedThe doors are small, so reaching the upper platforms and cleaning them is awkward.
