This is great for pet rabbits.

I have a big red white rabbit. We keep a cage (always open with a water bottle and newspaper) and a litter box in the playpen. I have a very large kitchen with a ceramic floor that looks like stone and has a rough surface. We bought a second handle that we split into 2 parts (5 panels and 6 panels) to cover the exits at the two ends of the kitchen. Acts like a baby gate, but much better. The two sections are self-supporting as the panels are angled to support each other. We leave the playpen…

My ferrets love freedom!

Update: I've had these playpens for 6 years now. They still work and I haven't found anything better on the market. The weld broke off in one spot, so we're going to check each joint now to make sure the ferrets haven't come loose. I can't say I've treated them well, but they're still holding up. I bought two of these to take my ferrets or chinchillas outside and let them roam the grass without worrying about them getting out of their harness and running away. They are perfect for that. I…

Pros
  • Decent performance

  • A small change

Great Small Animal Run

This is my review of the Small Animal Run. We bought two of these to build a large playground for our rabbit. What I didn't expect when we bought them is how heavy and strong they would be. I am by no means saying that they are heavy in a negative sense. What I'm saying is just the opposite, they are very good quality. They're great for holding our rabbit (although the only latched piece is the bottom hook, he can easily unhook it and come out. When all three latch, it's stuck. When our rabbit…

Suitable for chinchillas: doors, gates and ramps

This is great for what it is, that's why it got 5 stars. That being said, in our experience, this is good for a chinchilla, but not great. Pros: Can't get through the bars (and boy did he try), it comes pre assembled, it's very easy to set up and take down, and for us it's spacious enough for our chinchilla and two adults to sit comfortably. with him. Cons: After about a month, our chinchilla learned to jump out. If something is on the ground, he uses it as a launch platform for his jump. He…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Appearance

Keep both ferrets indoors!

We always use this gate cage in place of a store bought cage for ferrets to allow them freedom of movement. It is possible to buy another one to connect to (they connect easily) but they are much larger than any cage and they have plenty of space. They often run and play. Bars are such that they can't get out, but they try. The cage water bottle works great with it. I added one of the high backed pots I had tied to the side not for defecating but for eating, they poop where they want. Now they…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Very expensive

My ferrets love it! (Updated 5/16/2016.)

I just installed this so if my mind changes I'll update it. From the looks of it I LOVE this playpen for my ferrets. I can tilt it any way I want and it gives them a lot of wiggle room. At the moment they like to frolic in it. I considered ordering a cheaper playpen as it seemed a bit overpriced but I'm glad I went for it. Very satisfied. Five stars! UPDATE March 10, 2015: Well the splendor of this pen has been reduced tonight. When my ferrets finished playing I started folding it up to put…

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Available in black only

good product but there are some flaws.

I love that this playpen can be easily folded for storage and expanded with the 3 piece extension or you can even buy another 8 piece playpen or even an 11 piece playpen to add him this . In fact, you can make the playpen as big as you like! I have two 11 bay playpens that connect together for the main ferret playpen and then a smaller 8 bay playpen for them to play outside. The advantage of this playpen is that it can be folded, expanded with additional panels and is also very durable. It's…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
