Preparing for Your Hamster
Stress can affect your hamster a great deal.
Wire Cages
Wire cages are fine for hamsters. Just be aware that wire cages allow bedding material, food, and waste droppings to fall through the spaces between the wires.
Buy your hamster cage supplies.
Glass Aquariums
Glass aquariums are usually more difficult to clean than wire cages.
Hamsters can and do climb out and escape.
Resourceful hamsters can actually push the cover off to escape.
Wire and Plastic Combination
Cages made of both wire and plastic are acceptable.
Some things to know…
Hamsters are not very good climbers.
Keep your hamster’s cage clean.
Keep your hamster’s cage dry.
Do not use a wooden cage. Your hamster is an efficient chewer and will gnaw right through the wooden cage.
Buy a cage that is made especially for hamsters.
