FAQs

How often should I clean the cage?

Spot-clean the cage daily and perform a thorough cleaning at least once a week. This includes replacing bedding and cleaning all surfaces.

What kind of bedding should I use?

Use pet-safe bedding like paper-based bedding or wood shavings. Avoid cedar or pine shavings as they can be harmful to hamsters.

What food and water options are best?

Provide a balanced hamster food mix and fresh water daily, preferably from a sipper bottle attached to the cage.

How do I introduce new accessories?

Introduce new accessories gradually so your hamster can get used to them. Observe your hamster's behavior and make adjustments as needed.

Is the running wheel safe for my hamster?

Ensure the running wheel is the appropriate size and has a solid surface to prevent injuries to your hamster's feet.

Can I add more than one hamster to the cage?

It is not recommended to house multiple hamsters in a single cage unless they are siblings or have been raised together from a young age. Even then, watch for signs of aggression and provide separate cages if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Hamster is escaping the cage.

Ensure the grid is securely attached to the tray. Check for any gaps or damage and repair or replace the cage if necessary.

Hamster is chewing the cage bars.

Provide plenty of chew toys to redirect this behavior. Consider upgrading to a cage with a more durable construction.

Cage smells bad despite cleaning.

Clean the cage more frequently. Consider using a cage cleaner specifically designed to neutralize odors.

Hamster seems inactive.

Ensure the cage is in an engaging environment and consider adding more toys or accessories to stimulate activity.
