I'm partial to the Prevue-Hendryx line that are sold in pet stores. You
have to be careful of which cage you buy because their quality is
admittedly random. Check for sharp spots, especially around the base and
tray areas. They make a 20"wx20"dx30"h model (I think the model# is 123)
that has 3/4" bar spacing.

>Any adn all imput is welcome.
You might also consider putting some solid clear plastic panels around
the sides of the cage where the cat can reach. Hold'em on with elastic
bungee cords or drill holes in the panels and use bolts and wing nuts.
