Get an IR temp gun so you can know a more accurate surface temp of all the areas in the cage.
I do have an IR. Hot Spot top of the pyramid gets the hottest at 95 F. Everything else is in the 80- 90 range.

Yes I definitely know I have to take away to ability for him to get in there, but I wanted to address the cause first.
