The key to having a fit hamster is to keep it exercised and healthy.
(1) Make a point to find accessories and toys for the cage that are good for health along with entertaining, that make exercise enjoyable are very beneficial.
Therefore you might perhaps grab a hamster exercise wheel, a hamster see-saw and also a hamster maze which are often used outside the cage as well.
(2) Keep in mind to leave space for the basics like toilet area and house. Do not forget to consider the size of your little friend's cage.
(3) Think about little Harry and his fragile body and legs and then look again at the cage accessory you were about to buy.
Exercise wheels are a good case in point-buy a solid not spoked one. You really do not want to get a limb trapped in a spoked wheel. It isn't nice.Don't take a chance with his safety.
(4) Variety is the spice of life and keeps everyone busy. Mix up those for running, investigating or entertaining.
Purpose built tunnels and tubes, like those by Crittertrail are fantastic. This variety is going to give you both fun and him fit.
It is always satisfying and sometimes amusing watching a hamster play.
(5) If you get a plastic hamster house, it will be functional and could get chew a little bit, but there will be always the fear of pointed plastic edges.
Wooden hamster houses are a much safer alternative whilst still being good teeth stuff.
