I'm talking about the cage I'm currently using for my Richardson's ground squirrel, and the points to consider when choosing a cage. It's the right size, it can't be chewed, and there's little risk of escape... Then the options are quite limited, right? I chose this cage based on the experience of many escapes, so I recommend it with confidence! ●Additional note about the acrylic room● There is a small gap between the front door and the bottom drawer, so they may try to use their teeth to lift it from below and open the door. I put a 900ml plastic bottle (filled with water) on the top and door to apply weight so that the door cannot be lifted from below, making it difficult to lift. I decided that a 900ml plastic bottle was the limit where the acrylic plate on the top would not bend under the weight. When a human opens the door, it takes a little effort to move the plastic bottle, but???? With bottled coffee such as Nescafe, it is angular, so it can be fixed without rolling◎ After a few days, my child gave up, saying "The door is too heavy to open," but this may vary from person to person. I introduced acrylic rooms because I believe they are gentler on Richardson's ground squirrels' teeth and feet than wire mesh cages, but I hope that you will use this as reference when choosing a cage, keeping in mind cases like the one above. m(_ _)m **********Thank you for watching ♪ My name is Putty and I am a pet sitter in Nagoya. ◎Richardson's Ground Squirrel Mugi Toro (male) born in spring 2017 Tenmusu (female) born in 2018 (estimated) ◎Degu Sobameshi (male) born in spring 2018 (estimated) Color: Agouti ◎Leopard Gecko Kaoru (male?) born in spring 2016 (estimated) Morph: Normal ◎Ambon Blue Tongue Lizard Shion (female) born in spring 2018 (estimated) Morph: Azantic ◎Dog (Pomeranian) Poyomaro (male) born in 2005 (estimated) Color: Wolf Sable Okoge (female) born on May 31, 2016 Color: Black & Cream Please subscribe to the channel, rate it highly, and comment on it as it will encourage us! #PetSitter #Richardson's Ground Squirrel #Cage #PetSitter & CarePutty
