what do you need for a hamster example:we need a cage for a hamster like a hamster requirement

Answers:

Well your off to a good start. If you haven't already bought a cage i recommend critter trail cages, they have all different sizes. The cage should be mostly plastic, wire trays, ladders, and wheels can seriously injure your hamster. Exercise balls are great, they need their exercise in a safe place, also they love to hide, so any thing they can hide and sleep in is great. They also love to play so little balls and things keep them busy. Hamsters have to keep their teeth filed so wood chews are a requirement. Obviously a seed mix for food, treats such as hamsteroids, they are great for keeping their teeth down along with wood chews. Yogurt drops are great also it gives them good nutrition. Vitamins in the water are excellent! Bedding, the soft fluffy kind, they love to hide and sleep in it. Wood shavings for the bottom of the cage, make sure its nothing else besides Aspen shavings, they can die from any other type. Water bottles work much better then a water bowl, bowls can spill and if your hamster gets cold and wet it can die. Exercise wheels are a requirement also.One other thing is a litter box, you can litter train them. I hope i helped out some! Good Luck!
