Hello all,
  I am far from happy with the cage that I bought at petco and will be returning as soon as I receive a new one. Given the reviews/praise, I have decided to go with the Ferret Nation. I only have the one little girl and have no immediate plans to add any more. I am aware that the 182 would be potential overkill, but I am away from the house for 9-11 hours a day. Before and after work, I spend the majority of my time with her or supervising her shenanigans and make sure she gets 4-5 hours out of the cage every day. That being said, I want her to have as pleasant a time as possible while I am away, and this means a solid bachelorette pad. I'd be willing to spend the extra money on the 182 if it meant that she would be happier, but I wonder if that is just too much. The option of the 183 makes me want to lean toward the 181. Any thoughts or experiences would be much appreciated. Thank you and have a good evening!

My kids usually just sleep, poop and eat in their cage.  They don't play in their cage, as they have plenty of time outside their cage.

I hope this helps
