    Rodent Cages – How to Choose the Perfect Home for Your Pet

    Cage dimensions by rodent type

    Hamsters need a minimum floor space of 80x50 cm with vertical room for toys and a wheel. Guinea pigs require at least 100x60 cm as they're more active and live in pairs or groups. Rabbits need even larger spaces – minimum 120x60 cm for one animal, but ideally with access to a protected run area.

    Foldable models for easier maintenance

    Models like the Sklopivi kavez za glodare srednji -ravan krov HC605 allow for easy cleaning and storage when not in use. A flat roof provides better access to your pet and simplifies adding equipment. Foldable construction is ideal if you plan to transport the cage or move it occasionally.

    Materials and safety considerations

    Bars must be made of stainless metal with spacing up to 1 cm for hamsters or up to 2.5 cm for guinea pigs. The plastic base should be at least 10-15 cm deep to contain bedding and prevent spillage. Avoid cages with painted coating that could be toxic if your pet chews on it.

    Essential cage equipment

    Beyond basic space, rodents need a ball-tip water bottle to prevent spills, a ceramic or metal food bowl heavy enough not to tip over, and hideouts where they can retreat. Hamsters require a wheel with minimum 20 cm diameter, while guinea pigs should not use wheels as they can develop back problems.

    Ventilation and cage placement

    Position the cage away from drafts but with adequate air circulation – rodents are sensitive to high temperatures and enclosed spaces. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators and noisy appliances. The ideal temperature range is between 18 and 24°C with moderate humidity levels.

    Cleaning and maintenance

    The plastic base requires complete cleaning once weekly, while damp bedding and droppings should be removed daily. Use mild unscented detergent and rinse all surfaces thoroughly before returning your pet. Wipe down bars with a damp cloth, and wash water bottles and bowls with warm water daily to prevent bacterial growth.
