TRIXIE 6250 small animal habitat

The Trixie stainless steel rodent cage 60/63 is a durable enclosure designed for small rodents such as hamsters and mice. Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel with wire mesh sides and a solid base, the cage provides a hygienic environment that is straightforward to clean and maintain. Its compact dimensions make it suitable for home use as well as professional settings like veterinary clinics and breeding facilities.

Advantages

The stainless steel construction resists rust and corrosion, extending the cage's service life and supporting repeated cleaning and disinfection. Wire mesh sides ensure good ventilation and visibility while the solid base contains bedding and waste to simplify maintenance. The neutral, robust design is compatible with standard rodent accessories and allows flexible placement in different environments.
