Setting up your hamster cage
You have you hamster and you’ve just forked out on the world’s best cage fully loaded with all the tubes chambers and spinning gadgets any small rodent should need. Now to prepare the cage. Here are the important thing you should take into account.
Firstly a good layer of food shavings should be placed across the floor areas of the cage. The water bottle should be filled with clean water and being careful to make sure it’s at a reachable height the bottle should be fixed to the cage. Run your finger over the spout of the water bottle to check that it is correctly dispensing the water, give it a little squeeze and dry the end of the spout before trying again. There are also liquid vitamins that you can purchase from a pet shop, these can be particularly beneficial for your hamster should it take ill. Should you have a food dish fill it with the hamster food you have bought and place in the cage otherwise sprinkle across the cage floor. Make sure to place any cage accessories in appropriate places throughout the cage. Bedding should be placed inside the hamsters chamber or ‘house’. An exercise wheel should be fixed to the side of the cage or place in a suitable position if it is a free standing one.
