- well ventilated
- basic things - wheel, food bowl, water bottle
- bigger cage for bigger sized hammies
- small ( but not to small) for small size cage
- big is good
- Make sure all small gaps are covered
- fish tanks are no good- not much ventilation- our air does not really sink
- you can add additional things like a used toilet roll, tubes
Remember to place fresh food and water to keep your hamster healthy :)

ReplyDeleteI do not agree with your comment that fish tanks are no good. I have housed both mice and hamsters in mine, and they love it. You don't have to worry about them chewing their way out of it, fixing bars, or having a houdini hamster, like I had when I was younger. Fish tank cages are the best.( plus, they are super easy to clean!!
