Critter Nation/Ferret Nation Double Level Pet Cage for Sale
Description
Critter Nation / Ferret Nation for Small/Medium sized pets.
This cage is great for Small-Medium sized animals. It's perfect for housing Ferrets, Birds, Rabbits, Chinchillas, ect. This would not be an ideal home for Hamsters, Gerbils, Mice, or any small creatures that could fit through the bars or would eat or chew plastic.
For those who are not already familiar with Nation cages, these are large cages that are made of incredibly sturdy metal. They are made to last and are very durable! This cage has mainly horizontal bars with some vertical bars and is pretty customizable. It can be tailored to your pet(s) in many different ways. There are two main levels with two smaller half levels that can be placed on either side of the cage and at 3 different heights. It comes with 3 metals ramps for each level. Depending on the pet, ramp covers are highly recommended to protect your pets feet and can be purchased online or even made pretty easily with a bit of sewing skills. There are 4 plastic trays that are thick and incredibly durable for every level, they are also very easy to clean! There are 2 doors per level that open the front of the cage up completely. This makes cleaning this cage incredibly easy as it gives you complete access to the entire cage! It also allows you to easily remove the trays with barely any hassle. It usually takes a max of 15 minutes to clean this cage.
The cage doors have internal locks that unlock by squeezing the handles together and will lock when they are released. My ferrets are little escape artists and have never escaped when the cage has been closed properly!
This cage is compatible with other creature and ferret nation cages, a lot of people will attach 3-4 cages together to create a super cage for their pets. This cage can also be used to replace broken or old parts for a different Nation cage. We will only be selling the full cage as is and will not be selling individual pieces or parts of this cage.
This cage was originally received used but it is in good condition and is great for a new pet owner or someone looking to rescue or foster. The previous owner housed ferrets and birds in this cage and we are its second owner who housed ferrets in here for 3 years. This cage is fully cleaned, sanitized, and ready for new tenants! We do recommend still giving this cage a quick rinse at a car wash or another cleaning before introducing new pets as we do still have ferrets living in our house.
There is some wear and tear to this cage that is listed here:
- Slight tarnishing of the metal on the handles
- Door hinges have a bit of rust on them and do squeak a bit when opening. My brand new cage also squeaks so this could just be a design issue.
- One bar on the top left of the cage is broken due to rust damage. This never really was an issue for my pets, but might be different for others. The bars are still really stiff and it is pretty much unnoticeable unless if you pull it back like seen in the images. This can probably be easily fixed with a bit of Sauder or even crazy glue.
- There are 2 holes on the edges of the trays from the previous birds that lived there as well as some scratch and chew marks. There is some staining on the trays too. This does not impact the functionality of the trays in any way and are not too noticeable.
- Some of the joints have been warped over time which does make putting this cage back together a bit difficult. At least 2 people and a rubber mallet is recommended if you ever need to put the cage back together again. This cage is better suited for someone who doesn't have plans on taking it apart too often or using it for travel.
Due to this cage being older, we would prefer for anyone interested to take a look at the cage first before purchase or delivery to be aware of any flaws or damages with it. There will be no refunds and this cage is to be taken as is. By purchasing this cage, you are aware of any flaws or damages. If you choose not to take a look at the cage before purchasing or delivery, we will not be responsible for anything that you notice later after it has left our property.
Regarding transportation, we recommend picking this up with a truck as this cage is really big. The cage is currently fully assembled. It is easier to transport this cage in 2 halves to avoid needing to disassemble and reassemble the whole thing. We do have access to a truck to deliver the cage anywhere in Canmore for an added $15, or we can also arrange to deliver the cage to Exshaw or Banff for an added $25. Delivery to Calgary or the Calgary area can be arranged, but the cage will likely need to be nearly fully disassembled and the cost will need to be discussed further. This item cannot be shipped, we are only looking for buyers within Southern Alberta in the Canmore/Banff or Calgary area if delivery is needed.
We will be requiring payment before delivery or during pick-up. We can accept cash, but E-transfer, Paypal, or Square is preferred.
