Sugar Glider Cages – Savic Suite Royale (XL & 100, expandable)
Sugar Glider cages – high, safe and practical to design
A good Sugar Glider cage revolves around one thing: height and routes . Sugar Gliders are active climbers who enjoy moving from point to point, resting together, and exploring their surroundings. In this category, you'll find cages that perfectly complement this: the Savic Suite Royale XL and the Suite Royale 100 (with the option to expand). Below, you'll read what to consider when choosing, how to cleverly furnish the cage, and which accessories make all the difference.

Cage checklist: what to look out for
- ✓ Height & routes : multiple levels and many “crossing points” (ropes, branches, platforms).
- ✓ Safe mesh : pay attention to the spacing between bars/mesh and always check that your animals cannot get through.
- ✓ Resting places : several hammocks/nesting bags and quiet corners for sleeping together.
- ✓ Practically clean : removable base plate/drawers and an interior that you can clean in parts.
- ✓ Food & water cleverly placed : spread out feeding areas and place water firmly and stably.
✓ High altitude
Sugar gliders move vertically. Height and routes determine the ease of use and the tranquility within the group.
✓ Expandable
With the Suite Royale 100 you can expand later if you want more space, more animals or more zones.
✓ Practical to arrange
Lots of doors, good accessibility and space for hammocks, platforms and enrichment.
Which cage is right for you?
Choose primarily based on space (height) and your preferred layout. Want a "one-stop shop" with a large, tall cage? Then the Suite Royale XL is a strong option. Want a modular setup (start now and expand later)? Then the Suite Royale 100 with an extension is very practical.
Savic Suite Royale XL – large, high and uncluttered
The Suite Royale XL is a spacious cage with plenty of height and a layout that lends itself well to routes, resting areas, and multiple feeding stations. According to the product specifications, the dimensions are approximately 115 x 67 x 153 cm and the bar spacing is approximately 1.3 cm .
Practical tip for furnishing:
- Build “routes” with platforms and ladders and sturdy ropes/bridges.
- ✓ Place several hammocks (peace = less unrest in the group).
- ✓ Don't place feeding stations all together: use multiple feeding bowls .
Suite Royale 100 – start with the basics and expand later
The Suite Royale 100 is ideal for modular setups. You can start with the base unit and expand later with an extension module. The product page states that this allows you to extend the height (up to approximately 2.2 meters , depending on the configuration). The specifications indicate approximately 99.8 x 63.2 x 99 cm for the base unit (and the same dimensions for the extension) with a spacing of approximately 1.3 cm .

Furnishing in brief: comfort, routes and activities
A Sugar Glider cage only truly works if you create three zones: resting areas (hammocks/nesting bags), routes (climbing and crossing points), and activity (foraging, playing, feeding). The biggest benefits come from cleverly dividing the cage and regularly checking for wear and tear.

Safety check (practical)
- ✓ Bar spacing/mesh : always check that your animals cannot get through (be extra vigilant with young/small animals).
- ✓ Wear and tear : regularly check hammocks, ropes, edges and fastenings and replace any fraying or tears.
- ✓ Stability : Level the cage and ensure that platforms/bridges are securely attached.
- ✓ High, sheltered resting place : this provides peace and prevents restless “hanging around” in the cage.
Maintenance & cleaning
- ✓ Daily: Check feeding/drinking areas, remove leftovers, and quickly check for wet or dirty spots.
- ✓ Weekly: clean drawers/bottoms, wash hammocks/textiles according to material advice.
- ✓ Periodically: clean the furnishings in sections (not all at once), so that the group retains recognizable odors.
FAQ – Sugar Glider Cages
Why is a high cage so important?
Sugar gliders enjoy vertical movement: climbing, crossing, and roosting at the top. Height and routes provide more usable living space than just "floor space."
Which accessories are the most “must-have”?
Start with hammocks (multiple resting places), platforms & ladders (routes) and foraging/enrichment (activity).
Suite Royale XL or the 100 with extension?
Looking for a single, large cage right away? The XL is often the best choice. If you want to build it gradually or expand later, the 100 with an extension is a logical option.
Tip: Always combine the cage with a clear feeding and reward routine. See Sugar Glider Food & Snacks for more information.
