There is no really official minimum cage size* The ZZ1 meets the old minimum the RSPCA used to quote** (which they have since removed from their website and all of their literature), and I think it is a good size for a single Robo.

I disagree about not needing to mesh it though, I had a previous Robo manage to jump out of his unmeshed one even with no tall toys! If you want to not mesh something, the duna multy is about the same size but with narrow bars on the top, like the mini duna.

*unless you use the National Hamster Council's minimum, but that is purposefully small to accommodate things like hospital cages and holiday cages and such, so isn't really a guide for full time hamster living!

**they used to quote 75x40 cm as a suggested size, and the ZZ1's 72x46cm is approximately the same floorspace
