Ferret Nation 141 (Can be expandable with Ferret Nation 143 add-on unit)
Little Brother to Ferret Nation 142 above.

Again, nice and roomy, at 36 x 25 x 38.5 inches with the same great features as the 141 model, just not as large.

There are two things Chinchilla Cages Toys recommend you consider when looking at chinchilla cages before buying one:
- Get as large a cage as you can. Chinchillas like to roam around, and they also like to jump. Therefore, to ensure your pet is happy and can get the exercise it needs, buy a large chinchilla cage. It should be as large a cage as possible, as well as having decent floor space, it should also be high, like a parrot cage, to allow for your pet’s need to jump and climb around. Ferret cages tend to fit the required dimsensions perfectly, so ferret cages are also great chinchilla cages. Some people may choose to purchase a parrot cage instead, although as the nature of these type of cages are designed for a large bird rather than a smaller rodent, parrot cages may not make suitable chinchilla cages.
- Where possible avoid plastics. Any chewable plastic in the cage – toys, accessories, even plastic cage frame coating is a potential health hazard to chinchillas should they chew off and swallow any of the plastic. A cage with a plastic tray is okay unless it has some odd design that would enable your chinchilla to chew at it. However bear in mind that you do need to be thorough when cleaning plastics to avoid bacteria growth in unclean areas. Metal chinchilla cages are best, avoid plastic frame or plastic coated cages.
