A \((\delta,g)\)-cage is a \(\delta\)-regular graph with girth \(g\) and with the minimum possible number of vertices. \textit{H. L. Fu}, \textit{K. C. Huang} and \textit{C. A. Rodger} [J. Graph Theory 24, 187--191 (1997; Zbl 0866.05035)] conjectured that all \((\delta,g)\)-cages are \(\delta\)-connected. Here the authors prove that all \((\delta,0)\)-cages are \(r\)-connected with \(r\geq\sqrt{\delta+1}\) for \(g\geq 7\) odd.
