His old cage is almost the same size as the "kitchen" area! I thought it would be big, but i had no idea how big! My pig loves it so far, he runs really fast over the ramp.. He's been hanging out in the kitchen area laying down, then gets bored and goes over the ramp and starts pop-corning everywhere. I can tell he is very happy with the extra space. It it kind of flimsy, so I hope my FAT cat doesn't try to get on top. You really cant get a better cage for your money! It took me about 4 minutes to assemble, and may I say one more time... it is BIG. <3
