Small-Animal Housing & Enclosures

Everything at House of Chinchilla starts with one question: how do you house this animal well? Enclosures for chinchillas, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits — sized and set up the way the animal actually needs.

House first

The enclosure is the biggest decision you'll make.

Toys, wheels, and treats matter, but they're details. Get the housing right — the size, the height, the materials, the temperature — and you've done the hard 80% of keeping a small pet healthy. Start here, by species.

Custom enclosures

When an off-the-shelf cage won't fit

Odd alcove, awkward corner, or an animal with special needs? Custom small-animal housing and enclosures can be built to spec by Zip Builder's pet-enclosure workshop — a good route when the space, or the tenant, won't take a standard cage.
