This is the 4th cage I have purchased over the last 3 years and by far the best one. It is better than even the competitions 249.00 cage. It is easier to clean, the bottom pulls out for fast cleaning. I have 4 ferrets so easy cleaning is a necessity. My ferrets are happier than I have seen them. They love to be able to interact with my cats and dog now. when I received my box 2 shelves were broken, and the wonderful people at Marshall sent me out new ones the next day no questions asked and 2 days later I received them.I couldn't be happier!
Only one caution, make sure there is something heavy to block the bottom tray from being able to be opened by the ferrets.

Easy to clean. There are only 2 feret cages out there with a pull out bottom, which makes for easy cleaning. THe two doors are great for feedign and taking the ferrets in and out. I do agree with the person who said the parts should be shipped seperately. The base was broken, along with both the black shelves. I called ferret.com and they sent replacements out within a week. We were even able to repair the base with super glue, so really we have that as an extra in case the other breaks. Great deal, best ferret cage I have seen out there. The shelves are easily put in to make different levels and platforms. Would recommend this for anyone with 1 ferret to 8 or maybe even more. I have 3 and it is plenty big enough

Great Cage

I recently purchased this cage for my daughter's pet rats.
We both love the cage. It has ample room for all 5 of her rats.
The bottom tray was not cracked or damaged upon delivery.
We measured, so we had an idea of how big the cage was.
The only problem with this cage for rats, is they can squeeze through the bottom of the bars.
This is smaller size fancy rats.
But, we managed to fix that problem by putting ties on one end, and 5 bars high.
Even though the had the one problem, I still wouldn't return the cage.
I am that pleased with it.
The rats seem to love it.
The hardest thing I found was not putting the cage together, but putting the shelves in.
The ramps which allow the rats to go to the next level (the black ones) I had to make the the spacing of the levels was just so.
I didn't find the levels that connect together really move enough to hurt the rats feet either.
All in all the price is great on this cage, and it is a very sturdy cage.
I just wish I had found this before I spent 100$ on a rat cage that didn't hold up at all.

I think that the price is great.The cage is very sturdy.Love that I can pull it out to vac around it.Versatility and size is outstanding.My little girl found out how to shove the bottom tray out as well (but if you can use a drill...2 holes and 2 zip ties can take care of that).She is also not sure footed on the ramps.She would rather climb.Her partner in crime seams to have no problem with the cage at all.But he does have about a pound over her.Great investment realy but be sure to look into a ramp for the exit and return.My big guy has learned to "hop" back into the cage due to the pee-pee drag.My little girl some times has to have a boost.I have a small business "ferret fun house" and use this cage to size out some of my bedding pcs.My ferrets and I do love this cage so much so that we are looking into the marshall chalet for a travel cage.

I have absolutely no complaints about this cage. My little guy's love this cage, it's big enough for way more than just my 2. I kept 4 in it for 2+ months, and there was room left over! The bottom wasnt cracked when I got it, and my ferrets don't slip and slide, even my geriatric fuzzie. The only thing is I have an itty bitty little girl, and she figured out how to slide the bottom tray out and escape (once!), but keeping a box in front of the cage for them to use as a step has fixed this problem! The best thing about this cage is re-arranging the levels every few months and then watching my little guys run around exploring their new home.

Cheaper then any other cage that I had looked at. It's HUGE! Very roomy and several different ways you can arrange the levels. Very sturdy, well made. Semi-easy to put together..was made a lot easier once I got some help. The only negative thing is that the doors are held shut with a long pin that makes it really easy for my little son to get into. I'm investing in some key locks to keep my son out of it. Delivery was extremely quick, chose the economy one to save money and it was here in 4 days! Couldn't ask for more! I love ferret.com!!

After researching different cages, I managed to get this one on sale. I'm very happy with it. It's sturdy and my escape artists can't escape it. My only complaint is that some parts of the wiring is difficult to keep clean, and the platforms are easily broken if you don't know how to properly latch them onto the cage. Once they are latched however, they are sturdy and safe. My ferrets' quality of life has gone up by multiples since buying this cage. I would definitely recommend it!

scratchy ferret nails, good cage!

i love this cage for my ferrets
the only thing was when their nails scratch against the flooring its very annoying, especially when they are in your room, walking around at 2 in the morning
i went to Lowes and bought some carpeting, like outdoor type with rubber backing, cut it to the shape of the levels and put velcro on the back and the level floors
it worked amazing, if you dont mind taking a few hours and about $30 to do it!
it makes the cage look even better in my opinion!
now my ferrets have happy feet, they dont slide or make noise!
and mine wasnt cracked at all when i got it! the top bars were slightly bent, but can fix with your hands

This cage is ideal for any medium/large sized animal. The cage has ample room for your pet to grow over the years. The layout of the cage creates versatility when handeling your pet. With multiple doors and an easy to pull out bottom tray, this cage will stand out most compared to other cages on the market.
For your consideration : I do believe the platform trays that come with this unit are unsafe. They are made of plastic, great for washing and easily removable but they are not suited for ferrets.The platform trays/ramps should be lined with another material. I reccomend rubber. He was sliding back and forth on the platform trays because he could not grip what he was walking on.He had trouble adjusting to using the stairs as well.When he did start to move around he fell from the third floor. I had to stay with him for 48 hours non stop to ensure he was able to move from eating area/bathroom/sleeping area ok. He is getting more adjusted to new cage and i'm sure once i line the platform trays/ramps he will enjoy his new, safer cage even more.

I picked this cage after doing much research and reading multiple reviews on other cages. I kept coming back to this cage b/c of the features and it seemed EVERYONE was so happy with it!!!
My favorite feature was the huge deep pan which I can put tons of litter down. Many of the Ferret Nation cages did not have that which is why I went w/ this cage from Marshall's Mansion. I'm so glad I did!!! First, it was very easy to put together. My fiance and I put it together in about an hour. It required no tools with the exception of an allen wrench which they inclue. To figure out which way we wanted the shelves took a while after we got the cage together. One of the bars was built with a defect which we were able to figure out a way around it so the cage was still functional. So, it wasn't too big of a deal more so annoying then anything else. The cage is very sturdy and huge!!! Take into consideration just how big it is!! If our little girl didn't get all the excercise and attention every day that she does I'd feel guilty putting her in such a huge cage by herself. So, its truly meant for multiple ferrets. It seems the shelves are heavy duty as well which is nice because you will clip and un clip them about a million times before getting it just right. :) There are so many ways to re-arrange the shelves in this cage to make it perfect for you. It is SO easy to clean since the pan slides right out and can easily be hosed down. The shelves will be more complicated to clean, but I figured I will only need to give them a good washing once a month. To get the shelves in and out of the cage is easy too with the large two doors. Disinfecting wipes do the trick in between cleanings. I also find it nice at the top we keep extra litter, food, brush, toys, etc, It is such a sturdy cage it is fine to put some weight down on it from up top. Ferret.com was awesome!! They even called me personally to review my order and address. Once our order went thru we got it within TWO days!!! It was super fast and nothing came in damaged. The box was in good condition. So, all and all I believe you will not be disappointed in this cage.
