Ways to Keep Hamsters Warm
Changing Bedding: Spread a thick layer of wood shavings or absorbent cotton on top of the fine sand. If possible, prepare some special cotton for hamsters to enhance the warming effect.
Increasing Nutrition: Feed hamsters some foods with high protein and fat content, such as mealworms and sunflower seeds, to help them store fat.
Changing Hamster Houses: Choose a wooden house or a small house with a cotton lining. You can put some absorbent cotton balls inside the house.
Adjusting the Location of the Hamster Cage: Place the hamster cage in a sheltered place. If the indoor temperature is below 20°C, you can consider turning on the air conditioner or the heating system. But be careful not to let the hamsters get too close to the air conditioner outlet.
Using Warming Supplies: Put more wood shavings, use a warm house, an electric heater or an air conditioner to keep warm, etc.
Providing a Suitable Living Environment: Choose a quiet, dry and well-ventilated cage, and spread a thick layer of bedding on the bottom of the cage. You can use paper wool or wood shavings.
Using Insulating Materials: Add insulating materials such as foam or quilts around the cage to reduce the impact of cold wind.
Providing Sufficient Heat Sources: Place a constant-temperature heating pad or a small light bulb to ensure that the hamsters feel warm. But be careful not to overheat.
Keeping the Water Source Clean and Warm: Place the water dispenser in a warm place to ensure that the water is warm, and replace the water source regularly.
