The Foster cage is one of the four (5,5)-cage graphs. Like the other (5,5)-cages, the Foster cage has 30 nodes. It has 75 edges, diameter 3, girth 5, chromatic number 4, and is a quintic graph. Its LCF signature is 15^23^(70)1^(6434690), with the two order-15 LCF embeddings illustrated above.

The order of its automorphism group is 30.
