Lazy Bones Double Storey Wire Rodent Cage Review
This cage from Lazy Bones comes in at a really low price point for the size of the cage. Usually you expect to spend a couple of hundred pounds for a three storey cage of this size, but this one is under £60.
When it comes to choosing the right cage you need to make some smart decisions. You have to firstly make sure you are providing your pets enough space to roam freely and get the required exercise. This will ensure they stay happy and healthy.
Lazy Bones make a wide range of cages and other accessories for rodents and small animals, so they have a good reputation for making quality products. I’ve seen some of their cages in person, and they always look good and feel solid.

Specifications and Features
I have to reassure you again that this is not a fragile cage, it’s extremely robust once set up and there are no concerns of this cage breaking in any way. The base is plastic, and the sides are metal bars and fix to the base with large clips.
The wire side panels come flat packed and all you need to do is pop them into place and use the large clips. Assembling this cage only takes a few moments, anyone can put this together and you don’t need any tools.
The entry door is a large section of the panel that opens up and swings down. It’s large enough for a large hand to delve in and place or remove pets easily and safely. The base is deep enough to pad out with plenty of bedding, your mice will sleep nice and snug in a layer of substrate.
As far as having fun and exercise goes, there are three platforms in total all joined by ladders. Your little rodents can run around freely and jump from the platforms. You may need to add a running wheel or some tubes, but there is room for these and that will complete the cage.
This cage is a great example of what you should be using for a couple of rodents. Always check the measurements against where you’re intended to keep the cage before buying it. And find a nice quiet spot with no drafts or foot traffic always passing by.
