12 Best Cages for Sugar Gliders [2023 Update]

The feature that we liked best about this cage is that it comes with adjustable pans and two adjustable shelves. This particular feature makes it easy to adjust things around to create sufficient space for your pet sugar gliders. It also makes it easy to clean the shelves and remove the food tray. 

Moreover, the cage comes equipped with wheels. We found this feature to be particularly handy as sugar gliders are nocturnal animals, so you will need to move their cage regularly to ensure their home is away from direct sunlight. 

The MidWest Deluxe Critter Nation measures 36 inches in length, 25 inches in width, and 63 inches in height, which is ideal even if you have more than two sugar gliders. The wire spacing, i.e. half an inch, is perfect too. The product comes with a one-year manufacturer warranty, which is an added advantage since many of the cages I checked out offered no guarantee at all.

This is one of the tallest cages on the list which makes it an excellent choice for sugar gliders since they need a lot of vertical space to roam about and play. It is 31 inches in length, 20 inches in width, and 54 inches in height, so if you have more than two sugar gliders, they won’t be too cramped in a cage that size.

In terms of safety, the two front doors come equipped with an escape-proof latch for added safety and the 7/8-inch wire spacing ensures that even small sugar gliders do not escape when unsupervised. The cage coating is entirely non-toxic which is important since gliders tend to chew on the wire bars when anxious.

This cage is also practical to maneuver with wheels at the bottom that help to move the cage around your house. There is a bottom tray to collect your sugar glider dropping if needed. Also, there is a shelf at the bottom to store toys, food, and accessories.

Two things that could have been improved, though: only one of the two front doors open, which makes it more difficult to clean. Also, each platform is made of wire mesh as opposed to a solid tray, so a sugar glider might hurt its paw when walking. However, you can fix this by putting cardboard at the bottom of the cage and removing the other platforms since your sugar glider will need vertical space anyway.

This cage comes in four different sizes: large; large – 2 pack; large – 4 pack; and extra-large. Depending on the number of sugar gliders you have, you can choose the size that suits you best.

The standard large size measures 31 inches in length, approximately 21 inches in width, and about 53 inches in height and is ideal if you have one or two sugar gliders as pets. This cage features drawer slides, which makes it quite easy to clean the cage. Moreover, the cage has two large front doors that are easy to open and close securely. Irrespective of however intelligent your sugar gliders are, they won’t be able to open the front door.

More importantly, it is made from durable wrought iron, so it is sturdy while also being easy to assemble. Since the cage is pretty roomy, you will have ample space to add toys and other things to create a lively atmosphere for your sugar gliders.

With 31.9 inches in length, 18.3 inches in width, and 69 inches in height, this Yaheetech cage was one of the biggest cages I checked and is the right choice if you have more than only a few sugar gliders.

The cage comes equipped with 360 swivel smooth-rolling casters, which make handling much more manageable. However, if you want to keep the cage in one place, it can be easily detached from the main stand and placed in a fixed position.

Yet another unique feature of this cage is that it comes coated with non-toxic hammer tone paint. The construction includes two panels and two ladders, all of which are removable. The lower section of the cage features a sliding shelf drawer that you can use to store your pet’s accessories. The two front doors make it easy to clean the cage, and you can also altogether remove the tray for cleaning.

This Yaheetech cage impresses with its size and construction and you might find it to be unnecessarily big if you have only one or two sugar. However, many pet owners believe the bigger, the better, so the final word will be yours.

Several different factors made this cage one of the top choices for me. First, the Exotic Nutrition Mansion Cage is chew-proof, which was one of the essential criteria I had in mind while buying the cage. Made from metal, this cage is also one of the sturdiest cages I checked. The manufacturing company has been in the market for over 25 years and has very good customer service.

The cage measures 32 inches in length, 20.5 inches in width, and 58 inches in height. Also, its wide shelves help create even more space for your sugar gliders to play around. Even if you are planning to add toys to the cage, there will still be enough space for your pet friends to jump around. The cage features removable trays, which makes it easy for pet owners to change trays every day. 

The highlight of this cage is that it comes coated with an animal-safe powder, which makes this cage a wholly safe home for your sugar gliders. Lastly, if you want to add more space to this cage, you can opt for the mansion add-on which will convert your pet’s home into a four-level cage.

The Vivohome cage is made from quality materials and will surely last long years. It features two large sliding doors that lock securely in the front. These sliding doors are easy to operate, so cleaning the cage won’t be a hassle. There is also a pull-out tray included in the design. The bar spacing is 0.6 inches, which is ideal for sugar gliders and the entire cage comes coated with an animal-safe powder coating. 

The design features three wood climbing posts, all of which are removable. If you feel a lack of space, you can remove some of these components to create space. Even without removing these components, the cage is large enough to accommodate two to three sugar gliders. Also for its quality, I found the cage to be pretty reasonably priced.

The Mcage is made from wrought iron, which makes it extremely sturdy while also being easy to move. It measures 32 inches in length, 19 inches in width, and 37 inches in height. So it is roomy enough to accommodate two sugar gliders. However, if you have more than two sugar gliders, I will not recommend this cage to you.

There is a metal safety lock, which closes securely. So, even if you are out for hours, there is no need to worry about your sugar glider escaping out of the cage. It also features a slider tray, which makes it easy to refill the food, and a bottom shelf, which you can use to store toys and other things.

Two unique features attracted me to the Everila Parrot Cage. First, the cage features wires made from carbon steel, which is one of the sturdiest materials available for creating wires of any cage. Second, the cage comes coated with a non-toxic epoxy coating, which not only makes the cage beautiful to look at but also extremely safe for your sugar gliders. However, this is a small cage and cannot accommodate more than two sugar gliders. 

The Everila parrot cage features wheels and is easy to move around. More importantly, its design is such that you can remove the cage from its stands and keep it anywhere you want. The cage is not very heavy so moving it won’t be a problem, even when you are not making use of the wheels. There are seven feeder doors and a front door big enough to facilitate easy cleaning.

If you are looking for a reasonably priced, medium-sized, durable cage for two or fewer sugar gliders, you can consider buying this Boseley birdcage. Its construction extensively uses steel, which gives it stability over rough surfaces. 

The design includes a steel bowl, wooden stick, and iron ladder to keep your pet active. The industrial casters, two of which feature brakes, make it easy to move the cage around. With the removable sliding grate and the two front doors, cleaning the cage becomes quite easy. You will have to assemble the cage on your own. However, the packaging includes a manual that explains how to set it up. 

This is one of the few cages that is actually designed for sugar gliders. Thirty-six inches tall, thirty-three inches wide, and twenty-two inches deep, this stand is the right size for small pets, including sugar gliders. With 15 cubic feet of interior space, this cage is roomy enough for two to three pets. 

Its design features a tube-frame construction, which gives it balance. The stand includes an accessory shelf where you can store all the accessories, toys, and food. Since the cage is custom-designed for sugar gliders and other small pets, it has a bar spacing of 0.5 inches and the two front doors feature a robust metal lock. 

The entire cage comes coated with an animal-safe powder coat, and the packaging includes two plastic dishes and two climbing wood posts. However, returned cages are subject to a 15% restocking fee.

You must be wondering why I have included a cat house in this list of sugar glider houses. As mentioned before, there is a definite shortage of cages custom-made for sugar gliders, so people who have sugar gliders must learn to check all options with an open mind. 

Cat houses are roomy, which essentially means your little friend will have ample space to play around. Also, since the area isn’t a problem, you can add toys and other exciting elements to keep your pet friends interested. 

Moreover, this house meets most of the requirements of a sugar glider cage. The space between the bars is just right. The cage also features two doors which make cleaning it easy and wheels that make it easy to move it around. Most importantly, this cage is about 32 inches in length and 71 inches in height. It, therefore, is big enough to accommodate up to three to four sugar gliders.

This cage features high-quality materials and will easily last you long years. More importantly, the powder coating used is a hundred percent safe for animals. This cage is 31 inches in length, 23 inches in width, and 61 inches in height, which makes it roomy enough for more than two or three sugar gliders. 

It features a single large door and a slide-out grill and tray, both of which make keeping the cage clean, comfortable. The cage is also available in many different colors, so the availability of options is an added advantage. However, the bar spacing is one inch, which may be too wide for young sugar gliders.
