The Grosvenor Large Rat and Hamster Cage with Shelf - Black

Write A Review

1. A simple, good size cage suitable for a syrian hamster

   The cage is a good size, large enough for lots of toys etc to keep the hamster busy. More straightforward than some other allegedly suitable cages with lots of unnecessary platforms & tunnels.
   
   As already stated the wheel & house are too small for a Syrian hamster but for the price it's good value for money.
   
   Assembly instructions would have been useful!

2. Excellent product, excellent customer service

   Our new hamster was behaving a bit strangely in her first cage - nibbling bars and climbing the walls & ceiling in an alarmingly cavalier manner.
   
   When she came out to be handled, she was highly strung, keen to make a dash for freedom, and a bit nippy.
   
   Online searches suggested that this was "normal" hamster behavior, but she just seemed like a hamster on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
   
   After a few hours of trawling through online reviews, we settled in this cage. It didn't have the levels - so no risk of falling off a high edge. It didn't have a plethora of multicolored plastic tubes - so less garish, and easier to clear. It had a deep plastic base, so less chance of wood shavings falling out all the time. It would be high enough to take a 28cm wheel, and generously proportioned, but still able to sit on top of our sideboard, out of the draughts.
   
   Within 3 hours of moving into her Grosvenor cage, she was like a different animal: calm, relaxed, happier to be handled. It was clear then that she'd been going slightly bananas in her previous residence.
   
   The cage itself was easy to assemble - I'm useless at that sort of thing, but encouraged & assisted by the hamster's 9 yr old owner, we managed to get it together within 20mns. The cage is sturdy and intelligently designed for cleaning & general access.
   
   The wheel was a massive hit with our hamster straight away, although the first wheel that was sent out was slightly warped and had a disconcerting habit of moving around the cage as she ran in it. However, I emailed the little pet warehouse - & they replied within a couple of hours, and a new wheel was received the next day.
   
   So all I can say is: excellent product, excellent customer service. Our hamster seems very happy, my kids are happy, and I'm impressed with this online shop. New hamster mum on 20th Jan 2018

3. Happy Hammy!

   First time ordering off this website, the cage arrived quickly, few days after ordering and even the box was in perfect condition. Very spacious for my dwarf hamster Jasper who adores the see through house that came with It, more so than his hamster cottage. House was perfect size for my little man too! I had to replace the wheel due to it being squeaky but didnt find this much of an issue. My hamster is very happy with his abode. Great service and a happy customer! Selina on 14th Jan 2018

4. Plenty of room

   Our Syrian hamster has lived happily in this cage for a year. He builds his nest under the shelf - very cosy. We too haven't used the accessories that came with it as they are too small. A bigger wheel fits in easily. Very easy to clean the base. And easy to quick clean any daily mess. I was worried at first that a determined escape artist could possibly wriggle out of the roof if the shelf was high enough. But he hasn't so we have the shelf higher than in the photo.

7. Fantastic Cage

   This cage is perfect for a Syrian hamster. There is lots of room to run around and for toys and she loves the wooden platform and the security of the area under the platform. It is very easy to assemble and very quick to clean. Highly recommended! Unknown on 5th Apr 2017
