The main important factor that you need to consider is the dimension. If you are keeping a pair, you need to have a minimum of 24 inches for diameter and width. The minimum height is 36 inches since these animals are climbers and you need to be concerned about their climbing instincts. The mesh should not be more than half an inch wide. You can also set some ropes and branched inside the cage and the pet will always be healthy and strong with the climbing exercises.
