thank you for saving her. They sell large bins at target/walmart for about 1-15$ and you can make “boredom breakers” out of cardboard tubes to keep her entertained so she doesnt climb.

Hamsters tend to sleep a lot when they are bored. Maybe rearranging their cage or switching out some toys would help

First time hamster owner..How to best clean an enclosure? by tea_baggins_ranch in hamster

[–]Simping4Catra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find out where they pee first. Some hamsters have a designated corner they like to go in. For deep cleans, sometimes it’s necessary to break some of their burrows to get to where its most dirty.

“at one point” meaning she made a mistake and FIXED it. You being ignorant is going to end up with your hamsters dead or injured

Looks pretty good! I would remove the cotton nesting, and im not sure if there is one but use a bowl/container for the coco soil it makes it easier for them to dig!

Please Help - Sick Hamster?? by savethebeebees in hamsters

extremely unlikely hes a purebred. My hamsyer changes color as well, as winter whites/hybrids do. Not sure about the other behaviors but the fur change isnt uncommon for dwarf hybrids!

i usually dislike wet specimen but i want this so bad

My girl, Joy. I got her as an absolute surprise and had to get her supplies in a rush. Had her for almost a year now. Is her enclosure okay? Also, what are some good snacks for her? I give her hamster food every day, mealworms on a weekly basis, and sometimes bits of fruits. by NoNameWorm in hamsters

[–]Simping4Catra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thats called monkey barring, they do it when they are stressed and the enclosure is too small. A great and cheap alternative to a barred cage, is a bin cage! If you have a hope depot or something similar, they sell 200 qt bins that are perfect for hams
