A modular knock-down animal cage unit and cage assembly, erected from standard modules or modulae which are interchangeable, and which may be readily assembled and disassembled conveniently and economically for washing and storage, with minimum space requirements, and rapidly and conveniently reassembled, is disclosed. The animal cage units or cage assemblies are releasably suspended from and do not come into contact with the frame upon which they are mounted, thereby enabling the supporting frame to be produced from relatively inexpensive material, such as galvanized pipe, even though the cage unit proper is constructed of relatively expensive material such as stainless steel. The cage units and assemblies allow for rapid and convenient clean-out of animal waste material and, since the cage units and cage assemblies are not wall-mounted, room is available for maintaining hygienic conditions both within the cage units themselves and in the surroundings including the flooring on all sides of the cage assembly.
