I have two sugar gliders bacon(male) and waffle (female) two days ago bacon and waffle escaped and went to the back of the house(into my brother's room) (my room is upfront) and when I went to check their cage for holes there was none so I just added a blanket on the bottom of my door to prevent them to go to another room in the house in case they escape again but they ended up escaping last night into my parents room and the cage door was open (can they open doors?) So I don't know how to prevent this please help me!!!!!!

Also we have small dogs so I'm scared they will bite them (in there first escape bacon was all wet since the dogs were chasing him and nipping at him)

What type of doors does your cage have? (if there is any kind of guillotine doors, they can easily open those, they are also quite prone to open some kind of lock systems if they can manage to access it through the bars).
Also what is the bar space, and are there by any chance even one spot where the bar space is a bit larger than the rest (bent bar or top/bottom of the grid) or any space in a corner where they could just pass (more than half an inch and they can pass)?

Thanks for the tips since then I've had no incidents but I put my hand through the bars and it doesn't go past my fingers so yea I added some wire with rubber around it so they don't escape and its been working well Thank you!!!
