Prevue Pet Products Travel Bird Cage 1305 White, 20-Inch by 12-1/2-Inch by 15-1/2-Inch

This bird cage will do for now for short road trips between the house the bird lives at and the pet sitter. However, the instructions to put this cage together were poor and I had to get them off the website because the instructions and parts were trapped in the folded cage and could not be reached until the cage was put together. The cage might have been easy to put together except that 2 sides were stuck together in a way that they were not meant to go. It took pliers to get them apart. The door locking mechanism does not really lock. A bounce could easily move the mechanism out of the lock. I will have to tie them together. 9/4/16 Further problems. The included wooden perch is too large and smooth for the parakeet. Also, the perch will not stay attached to the sides of the cage because the perch is just slightly too short. The included steel dishes are nice dishes, but far too large for the cage. 9/10/16 This is a very sturdy cage. The bars are strong. When the cage is opened up it does not come apart. The cage would be very hard to tip over. These are very good things for a road trip. The prior issues do still stand, but can be handled. None of the otherr cages you could travel with were this sturdy or this hard to tip. So I am upping the review to 4 stars.

We have been getting severe weather around here more often than I like. I dawned on me. How do I drag my gigantic flight cages down to the basement to save my birds? I dont.... This travel cage put my mind at ease. My birds also love playing around on this thing. Id say best fit for cockatiel sized birds to medium sized birds. Anything smaller their head will get stuck in the wide bars. Anything larger and they will not have enough room to stretch at all. Only negative I can think of is the bowls that come with it are way to deep. Cut that depth down by half, and they would be perfect!

I am extremely satisfied with this cage. It is for a small to medium size bird. I have a pionus and she is not a real active girl so this is perfect for the amount of time she is in it. It is nice as a traveling, sleeping cage or for some outside patio time as she is not harnessed trained. In a crunch, she could live in here for a few days providing I give her enough out of cage time to stretch her wings and play. It is super easy to put together and takes about 1 minute to set up. I have 2 others like this but a different brand. This one is about $10 more than my others but its worth the extra money. It seems the wire is heavier which makes it more sturdy. The bowls are of nicer quality with small safety hooks that help hold them in place. The bottom tray is deeper and heavier plastic with a latch that prevents it from sliding out. It includes a perch but I use only natural or rope perches. It is at a great price point for the quality. Dont look any further. I am pretty particular and would highly recommend this travel cage.

Perfect travel cages for us to use when our birds go with us on vacation. Stores easily when conpressed down , enough room for them to stretch their wings . Finish is better that some of our custom cages at home.

So the idea was to purchase a mobile cage so that I could haul my Conure around and position him in my daily life - where otherwise I would have left him behind. This cage is the perfect take your bird on the road solution.... I was looking for: HUSKY - for ongoing transport I needed something that can hold its form. There are some good built tough cages out there but they are all $80 to $120. - This cage was under $40. (Also the supper beefy cages make your bird look like your carrying a lab animal (especially the clear one). I dont want a cage that looks like I am transporting a quarantined animal. This cage is strong enough for rugged traveling - but sleek enough that you dont look like Vet tech. BEING IN PUBLIC - another factor in transport - means carrying a bird through public places. The only thing worse than being on an elevator with a potentially contagious bird is riding with a creepy bird person. Sorry a fish bowl - plastic aquarium - bird backpack is a little bird person creepy. I am just a man with his bird trying to get from the parking garage to my office... I want everyone on the elevator to be at ease with my bird and my personality. This cage is beyond perfect. Its really strong for a wire cage - you could transport a puppy in it - its the perfect transport size - and it looks like normal cage (and its under $40). Very good build and product - probably the bet quality cage I own. Careful details and thought in the design. They even provided 1 extra bolt and wingnut (very classy). When I put it together - and saw it in real life - I was pleasantly surprised - Its a travel cage but - but its not bad for a mobile cage - its like an RV Camper for a bird - with a small home feel. I will be adding a mod thought - the handle is made out of the same gauge wire as the cage - the cage is so beefy (heavy) that I will add a bigger handle on top.

The cage is nicely built and easy to set up. My Senegal Parrot loves to be outside with me and this cage is a perfect size to tote her around.

This will be a perfect travel cage for my green cheek conure. In my opinion, it shouldnt be a home cage because I think that bigger is always better for a main cage. Every single part of me is impressed with this cage. The only gripe would be that there is a single handle in the middle which makes weight distribution a little funky and its made of the same wire as the bars so it would start to hurt if you have to carry the cage for a bit. The cup holder bolts could also be better and you would need a screwdriver to really get them to be hulked on to the bars, but you can have them stay just fine just using your hands. If your bird is an escape artist, the door mechanism may not be sufficient, but its just fine for me. Otherwise, everything else is ingenious. It took about 30 seconds to figure out how to expand it when I took it out of the box. The bowls are made in a SUPER smart way. You can kind of see it in the pictures, but the holders arent a perfect circle. they have little nubs coming out. The bowls have similar nubs on their outside so that you drop them into the loops and then rotate them so that they are locked in place and cant come out until you line up the bowl nubs with the loop extrusions. I dont think that it is super necessary, but its still very cool to me that someone thought out such an interesting concept. The bowls may be a little bit deep for some birds or for very small ones, but Im sure that most people would be totally fine with using some of their own. The perch has deep anchoring grooves so that its easy to place it and it is very stable. There is also a mechanism to hold the cage in place when it is flattened out. The catch tray is secured into place with another wire door-type mechanism but is still super easy to get to and remove for whatever reason. If you do a little bit of jamming, you can even get the bowls to fit under the wire floor for storage in the catch tray. I personally know that I wont just be using the items that come with the cage and will add some of my own, but you would be totally fine for with what it comes with. Its an amazing buy at the price point (I got mine for $37 USD). For a small to medium bird, I would absolutely recommend this cage. Just dont even bother looking at others. If you need a travel cage, this is perfect. The selling point for me was being able to collapse it. I am extremely satisfied and impressed.

Perfect size

This is a perfect cage for my greencheek when we go out on the patio for some fresh air and relaxation. Itll also be great for vet trips because its a long drive from where I live. The best part is that he likes it so I dont get eaten alive like I do when I put him in his smaller travel carrier. He happily goes right in! I think it would work well as a sleeping cage, but my little guy sleeps in his regular cage. Im docking one star because the door doesnt stay latched, and even when it does (which is never) theres a large gap. I dont leave him alone when hes in it because itd be too easy for him to get out when were outside or in the car. I made an additional latch from wire, but the gap is still there. And please note that this cage probably isnt safe for any bird smaller than a Greencheek. I think budgies and similar sized birds could get out through the bars, or worse yet, get their head through the bars, and then get stuck. The cage is easy to put together after a small struggle unpacking it, and will be easy to collapse and store away when summers over. Overall, I recommend the cage for travel or getting fresh air, but only for birds who are at least as big as a Greencheek, and only when someone is with him.

This turned out to be a nice cage for evacuating our African Grey parrot for Hurricane Dorian. There was one minor flaw, one of the white holders for the cups was welded crooked, which made using one of the enclosed bolts an impossible task. I had to rummage through our bolt supply to find one slightly smaller so it could fit past the crooked weld, and eventually it all worked out. My Grey was not happy about the smaller cage initially. I placed the included perch at the lowest possible setting in the cage, and also the included bowls/holders. I used one of his regular perches from his cage set low as well. He ended up sitting on that for the most part, ignoring the included perch which was set towards the front of the cage. He was in the cage for about 5 days. It took him a day to get used to it before he was back to his usual routine of making fun of us and talking up a storm. What I like about this cage is the size. You really shouldnt go smaller for a Grey, and this is only meant to be for traveling and evacuating. I would not want it for long term. He has an older travel cage that was bigger and weighed twice as much as this one. We needed the room in our vehicle and we needed something lighter that wouldnt hurt our backs. This fit the bill.
