Kaytee could literally make so much money if they just made suitably sized cages in multilple color options and that's it.

I’m glad that they listened and now they’re changing things. CHANGE THE “STANDARD” for all companies that manufacture products for retail purposes

It's a shame that cages that are labelled as large are only just above the minimum. I'm glad some companies make cages that are big enough, but I don't think they should be called giant or large if they are only just above the minimum.

Should be called "Normal recommended size habitat" lol.

This could be a great nursery cage for new rat moms because the babies wouldn't be able to get stuck in the bars because of the tray, but there's still better ventilation than trying to use a bin cage (unless you're meshing out all the sides).

Kaytee; You've done well this time. But you still have a lot to learn. Continue to revise. Take that gerbil picture off.

always here for an upload 🥺 ilysm!! you’re my fav youtuber and i’m so grateful that your taking the time to spread awareness!!

I actually used this as a retirement cage for my oldest rat. He absolutely adored it! He started losing control of his hindlegs so he couldn't climb up the bars or ramps of his bigger cage anymore. He needed a cage that was longer rather than taller and this was absolutely perfect for him. He was also a pretty big rat, and he still fit comfortably in the cage. My rats were never big chewers, so I can't comment on the plastic or how hardy it is, but overall I highly recommend it.

This video is just a rollercoaster 😂 "I like it" "and that I don't like" "this I like" "don't like it" 😂😂 this cage doesn't seem very secure, but ayy!!! At least kaytee tried to make make a suitible cage 😄

I don't even have a hamster, just a dog, and still I'm watching the whole video.

I have a young female syrian hamster who is chewing me out of house and home, so thank you for mentioning that because I thought I just got stuck with a spicy one lmao

I’m so glad this vid doesn’t have a dislike! it deserves 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000+ likes and no dislikes Love ur channel munchy !! U are literally THE BEST❤️😭🥺🥺🥺❤️ (happy tears). I love ur personality so much! Edit: Thank u so much for 25 likes I’ve never had this many❤️😍

I'd still personally just get a bin cage

I’m happy they’re starting to listen yay hopefully more to come. I still like my 3 enclosures better 1 is a custom build that has a bit over 1600sq in plus a 2nd level , 2nd is a 75 gallon and a 40 breeder tank connected by a custom built top and then a ikea detolf with a raised lid.

Thanks Munchie for putting in so much hard work to bring awareness and run your organization while life’s rough. You’re awesome!!

That awkward moment when Kaytee made an ok cage.

Great review, Munchie! Thanks for spreading awareness and information about hamster care!

I love that you educate people on proper hamster care, keep up the good work!!💕

Yes I loved your thoroughness! 💕

I don’t get the complaints about bin cages being too cloudy. Critter trails are so dense and I feel like you can’t see anything, and I hate the tacky colors they use. It’s like a child threw up on it. Bin cages, although they are cheap, have more visibility in my opinion, and doing simple things like customizing the lid and theming the inside makes it way cooler than any ugly brightly colored cage. I mean when I look at my hamster, I’d rather see him slightly cloudy rather then blue or pink because of the plastic..

$80/$90 for this plastic Kaytee super habitat when literally you can go to walmart & get a plastic tub bin for $15 or so aha. Name brand & cheaply made is all it is. I'll stick to my homemade bin!

Yay!!!! You posted!!!!! I love your videos!!!

I have a hamster and called him munchie as you have always been the person to watch whenever i am stuck on hamster care. I dont know what i woul do without you!

They should make a clear one for a more minimal looking

thank you so much for this! so many people own the horrible cages and its wonderful that you are educating them! 💓

EEEEEEE I've been waiting for your opinion on this cage!! Thank you so much!!! I LOVED the comparisons to a bin cage and the 528! Exactly what I wanted to see about this cage! Your videos are so informative and have really opened my eyes to proper small animal care! Thank you!! 💜💜💜💜💜

I researched the laws, and unfortunately the minimum enclosure *by law* for hamsters is abysmal. According to the USDA Animal Welfare Act (Part 3, Subpart B, section 3.28, as of May 2019) the minimum *height* of an enclosure is six inches, but the minimum floor space for the biggest hamster is 15 square inches with a maximum of 13 hamsters per enclosure. Yikes. Both the ASPCA and the US Humane Society recommend a minimum of a 10 gallon tank. The California Hamster Association recommends a minimum of 450 square inches, which is the only official source I can find for that number. The US is sadly not very good at hamsters.

YEEESSSSSSS!!!!!! Im so excited u got one and ive been waiting literally all day for you to upload!!!!!!

It was 10:00 pm my time when u uploaded this and yt didn’t give me the stoopid notification... but you BETCHA I’m stayin up to watch this!!! Thank you for making such amazing helpful content!!! I bet you’ve saved hundreds of hamster and small rodent lives by posting this!!

I feel like munchie should be sponsored by prevue for all the promotions she is doing for the 528

I’m so so happy they stepped their game up

just a simple ✨i love you✨ needed to be said. favorite youtuber ever!! i’m getting a hamster on my birthday (august 25th) and have been researching proper care since quarantine started!! (im planning on getting a 200 quart bin which is roughly 854 sq in) your channel has been a main source of info for me and i appreciate you and the other hamster channels!

I love your videos very educational.

Throwing in my comment for the algorithm!! I love your videos :) keep up the great work and vids, they are such a heart blessing to me 😭💕

Omg i love this and i love it finally a good cage review from crittertrail

I was waiting for you to review this!!

I live in Australia where you can't get hamsters, yet I watch all of these videos for your personality and also cute hamsters 😂

cool video! I’m glad to see some well-researched youtubers🤗

Me: I have a new cage for you! My Syrian: Is it a metal box with five locks and no air holes? Me: Uh... No... Actually, it's got a piece at the top that doesn't latch properly... Syrian grinning: Perfect. I won't be in it long. Lol! Seriously tho, let's hope the stores actually stock this! Edit: I am *living* for Munchie scolding the cage. 😂

so happy they made a bigger and better cage!!!

I love your videos i have been wanting a hamster so i was and still am happy that i found your channel

Munchie’s back!!!

Btw congratulations for advocating for positive cages and thank you Kaytee for listening!

Love your videos ❤❤

I’ve never seen that Syrian wheel before, that’s an absolute UNIT of a wheel!! I bet it’s great for some of the chunkier hamsters you have! ☺️

My grandparents own a local pet store/feed store chain that sells hamsters, I'll definitely let them know that this is something they should look at stocking 💜

I’ve seen this cage at Petco, in Illinois. Although the lady who sold us a hamster told us he could squeeze out of the bars, and it was not suitable for any type of hamster, after asking if the cage would work for my Syrian hamster William.

You can buy a detolf for $60. If this product was cheaper I would probably buy it. Props to Kaytee for finally making a decent cage though!

i got the prevue cage bc of your other video about the cage! my dwarf loves it, ive been debating taking out the big ledge and getting smaller ledges to add it. love your videos 💗

I got the second option cause of this video , thank you!

It's like the brand version of a bin cage. I never owned hamsters by the way , but I keep watching these videos

Thank u, I got this cage for Christmas (I’ve done 2 months of research everyday) and I’ve asked so many people if it was good! So happy I’ll get a hamster and it can live healthy and the part the tunnel thing goes I’m putting mesh and I didn’t use the platform since I’m putting deep bedding

I just got this cage used for 30 usd, my mice love this cage! I love it to 😍 it's so pretty and fits on my table better than my bin cage was, I have so much I can hang with the bars to! I personally recommend this cage!

We purchased the preview cage for our new friend. On your recommendation and so happy with it. You really opened my eyes to how a pet should live. I tell my daughter that we do what is good for the pet not us humans☺

What a great step in the right direction. Let's hope they continue this way. Unfortunately, I do think they'll continue producing the tiny, inappropriate money makers that appeal to children, but maybe they'll start making those larger?

YES I’ve been waiting on a review for this one. I was thinking about getting it for my mice, but I decided to reuse my Prevue 528 since I upgraded my Syrian to a homemade cage.

I saw this at my local WV petco, when i was thinking about owning a hamster i considered this but was suspicious of kaytee. Thank you for your review on it i love watching all your videos

I love this I have a hamster and I have a 40 gallon aquarium thank you for doing this

She is so excited about the plastic. I love it! 😂

I had no idea about hamsters or mice until I found your page. I learned so much and my husband and I had been discussing getting a new hamster. I told him never again are we doing a small cage. we will do like I did for my rats big 50 gallon tank. or a bin cage looked nice to. And simple.

I have seen them at my petco in greensburg pa. I was there and I had adopted a baby guinea pig who was returned and it is going so good with my older girl! And I also gave someone proper advice for their hamster bc the petco lady had NO CLUE what she was saying. She said that they need 35 INCHES OF SPACE, and she also said that hours could cohabit Syrians. So I told the young couple about PROPER care.

I love your channel

I work at a Pet Supplies Plus in NY! I believe we sell this! We got them in a week or 2 ago and I was amazed that Kaytee came out with them!

Omgoodness, what is Carlos. He is so cute. I have never seen a syrian hamster with such rounded features. Is he a pup? I think Munchie mentioned that. absolutely adorable.

I got a extra large critterhome its 700 sq inches and its only about 90$ so I would say to bye that instead of the super crittertrail more space is always better. It came in today my hamster is a little stressed from the new environment but he'll get used to it. Also lots of people say the bar spacing is too big for hamster but looking at it only small robos might be able to fit threw definitely not syrians

Kaytee reminds me of petty from dog man, he was so evil than he is trying to be good, tiny tales is just every other villain, they listed the Dino cage as xl but the main base was less sq inches than they’re castle

Early btw I looooovvveeee youuui

I’m so glad to see companies actually trying to make there products better! I recently bought the ferplast criceti 100, the cage is great! However the accessories are hideous. Everything including the platforms went right to the trash. Our 11 inch wheel does fit perfectly. And she has 7 inches of bedding to dig in. Our russian dwarf hamster does seen to enjoy it a lot. The cage is as big as the cage where my parents use to have there bunny in! I feel so bad, I’m glad I can do better. I don’t blame my parents because pet shops are awful. But video’s like this are giving me some hope that enclosures will go bigger eventually

Hi!!!!im a big fan!!

I love my 528 but I also love my 50 gal. bin cage. I have mice in both cages and each one allows me to give them vertical as well as horizontal enrichment. I have suspension bridges in both cages. I just drill two little holes, on opposite sides of the bin cage, and hang the suspension bridge from planter chain. One end of the chain goes in the bridge hook and the other goes out through the little hole. You can hot glue a washer on the inside of the hole if you have a plastic chewer in your group. The end link, of the chain is secured with a small ring or anything else that keeps the chain from falling back into the cage when the bridge is jostled. I use the: 4Pack - 24 Inch 4 Leads Hanging Chain with Hooks Flower Pot Chain Replacement Plant Hangers for Bird Feeders, Planters and Lanterns (Black) as I hang a lot of things using the chains. It is easy to bend the links to open and close them so that you can use whatever length you need. You could also use sisal twine but some rodents will chew the twine which is why I use chain to hang things.

i LOVE how this video has no dislikes!

This is why I like the Zoozone 2. Enough space and is easy to use. Plus its deep for bedding etc.

My fav KZfaqr 🥺❤️

Finally! They realized what they did 👍🏻😍

So glad you're back! But anyways, I SWEAR i've seen this cage before but it was advertised for rabbits and guinea pigs. Watching you command the cage into place makes me cry laughing, "I MEAN IT" lmfao

I love this cage for my hamster

Great videos! There's so much I didn't know about owning a hamster.. when I was a kid and my brother and sister had hamsters we only ever had a standard small square cage that was 1 level and like 14x10. I just picked up some stuff to build my son a Bin cage, only issue right now is finding the 1/2" hardware cloth. The only stuff I can buy around my home comes in 50ft-100ft rolls for $70+(and are also out of stock due to covid and lots of people gardening) The bin top seems very flimsy so I'm going to build a wooden framed top and air-staple the wire to the top. Then down the road I have the option to build a bottom wooden frame and can use the same top.

FINALLY THEY ARE CHANGING THEIR WAYS

I finaly got a channel to comment and now I'm gonna subscribe because ur channel is awsome and informational is that a word???? Yes I'm writing this at 5 30 am

I’m glad that kaytee critter trail at least has one suitable cage

I have 2 solitary male mice, one in a 20 gallon and one in a 10 with a tank topper that doubles the size, they both have tons of bedding and climbing space and they’re are very happy

You're awesome munchie💜🌈🌟

Yes, I love the Prevue #528. It is heavier than the Kaytee Crittertrail Super Habitat. Of course, the tray is not see through with the Prevue cage, so you can't watch all the small animal action. Thanks for the review, Munchie's Place!

So good that they made a suitible cage 😃

I got mine for my Syrian hamster at that pet place (the fish place) in Landcaster Pennsylvania. I absolutely love it, I like that is a platform so I can keep his bedding out of his food

I have one Katee even bigger, it’s supposed to be for rabbits but I bought it for my Syrian and she is so happy.

i like the rubbery plastic! it seems like it has a bit of give to make it less brittle and less likely to snap

We have these cages I my Petvalus in Alberta, I'll check the price next time I'm there. They even come in different colors. They're the only ones sold in my local one. I'm so glad they listened! It would be great if PetSmart did that...

I watched Pickle's pets review in 2018 and ended up getting this cage. Now, I've had several. The only thing I didn't like about them is the door is hard to open and ultimately, one of the plastic tabs would break off. Others have said that reaching in from the top of a cage (rather than have a side door) means your small animal may think you're a predator. That said, I love the transparent deep tub and the 1/4" wire spacing. p.s. None of my gerbils ever chewed the plastic on these cages.

They have this cage in my local pet shop, petsmart, and petco:) I live on whidbey island, Washington state:)

Jajajaj u r rlly funny nwn/ also good cage review 🐹👊💕

I'm saving money for a new hammy cage cause my dad bought a small one ): I'm so excited to see my hammy happy when I buy him a new one! Also my hammy barely fits through his tube so I'm so excited!

Thank you I was thinking about getting this for my new mice but I probably will just get a detolf because it is cheaper and much bigger.

I recently got a 50 gal tank and was looking at coffee tables to use as a base, it's nice to see one of my fave hamster youtubers using the IKEA Lack that I was looking at haha

My local Petco in the US has these in stock. I made the mistake of not doing enough research and ended up getting this for my new hammy. It's not bad, but really overpriced. Long story short I'm giving her plenty of enrichment until I can upgrade to a bin cage or similar. I'm glad to see pet stores sell something that's somewhat adequate! With the proper amount of bedding (which can actually fit in this cage) and taking out the plastic ramp, it's miles better than any other of the Crittertrails.

I mean, I'm glad they're trying. That's great. But I got a Prevue 528 for our dwarf hamster and it's so easy to take apart and put together.

i saw that in my local 7 seas in PA and a couple Petsmart's.

After the cage first came out I actually did find it at PetSmart, it was on an end display facing the inner wall of the store so you kind of had to look kind of hard to find it, but I haven't seen them there in a long time.

Target sells a 40 gallon bin with wheels. (Clear bin, purple wheels). Which is just over 450 square inches of floorspace but a lot taller than the 110 qt. Sterelite. You should definitely look into it

I saw it in Jolly’s in the UK there was 4 and a worker was putting them on the shelf but 2 workers noticed and took them and shoved them in the bin and me and my Mum just stared.
