Chinchilla Cages

This is a guide for buying Chinchilla Cages online.

Always choose the largest cage possible for your Chinchilla. They are not the size of small hamsters and gerbils so they need more space to move around in. Chinchillas like to climb and jump, so it is better to have a cage that is higher than it is wide. For this reason, parrot and ferret cages make terrific cages for Chinchillas. Here are some cages we recommend:

Petsmart’s Multi-Level Chinchilla Cage

This cage will give your Chinchilla maximum room to move about and hop around. With this cage, you can add many different types of accessories inside without over-crowding. Keep in mind that Chinchilla exercising wheels are extremely big, and with this cage, you will be able to set up the wheel and still have plenty of space for the Chinchilla. The cage has wheels on the bottom for easy transport plus a removable floor so you can easily change the liter.
