Compared to most indoor ocelot enclosures this isn't that bad, size wise. And the outside is probably about the same size as this? Too small for a puma, maybe a bit small for ocelot but it's not terrible.

I would suggest that any enclosure that a highly active and reasonably intelligent mammal can cross in less than ten strides is "terrible". Especially one as stark and basic as this. The outdoor enclosure would want to be a damn-sight larger and more enriching than this.
Animals often have to see out their entire lives in the one enclosure. This pair have obviously come from somewhere else, but... what a dreary existence.
Most time's I've seen them they've been sleeping lol. Didn't realise they were normally active. Looking back to Berlin, This probably is quite a bit too small. I think the cage the puma was in had quite a low roof too which wouldn't benefit the ocelots.
