The 8 Best squirrel enclosures (2023 reviews)

We are personally inclined towards prevue squirrel enclosure, it is not so pricy, but it overachieves its purpose and outstanding in important aspects. Your small animal will love the sweet fragrance of 100% natural grass materials. The steel metal cage includes ramps, shelves, and a hammock to keep your fuzzy friend entertained and happy. The center grate is removable for one large cage area. It offers plenty of space plus can be two separate cages. The whole cage is made of metal, because it is easy to clean and does not absorb smells. Cleaning is pretty easy since the tray comes all the way out and there is a door on the top and bottom level that opens up.

The cage is a very nice size and its very easy to clean. This product is of excellent quality, assembles simply, and gives you the option to house different sexes.

It features 4 heavy-duty casters at the bottom to ensure high load capacity. The gaps between the cage and the doors are more than large enough for a mid-sized rat to get through, as well as the gap in the bottom where you slide in the plastic tray if you remove the wire cage bottom. It’s secure and sturdy, and would be spacious for two rats.

The powder coated wire is perfect for easy cleaning and no rusting. The levels don’t meet in the middle, so if your pet falls from the top, they will fall straight down. It is easy to put together.

Best And roomy Cage: AIVITUVIN squirrel enclosure

Buy on Amazon

Aivituvin is known for creating pragmatic and minimalist enclosure for people on the go, and its line of aivituvin squirrel enclosure definitely falls in line with that reputation. It's good for small animals. It comes with a small house that is great, a food bowl and a rabbit chew toy. It's easy to clean and has a lot of access points to get different areas of the cage. It is wood and not plastic or metal the pee does absorb into the wood. It's a softer wood and the paint is chipping on it.

It’s easy to put together but the chemical smell off the treated wood is intensely strong. The wood is very soft so assembly requires a gentle touch or the screws will go straight through both ends. The ramp bottoms end at the cage wall so theres no flat space at the end of them and have to be crawled on to get different areas of the cage. It's a nice and roomy cage for them to go all over.

Why We Like This:

Smells a little weird but overall sturdy and absolutely worth it
Pretty easy to assemble, but just take the time with a screwdriver
Excellent product, great if you need something for rats
Nice big door in the front and the top opens as well
