Pet hamsters are suitable to be raised in places that are shady, without direct sunlight, have good air circulation and are quiet. Specifically, you can place the hamster cage on a table that is more than 30 centimeters above the ground, away from windows and air-conditioning vents to avoid direct sunlight and being directly blown by cold air. Besides, choosing a well-ventilated and quiet room can ensure that hamsters have a comfortable living environment.
The Living Habits of Hamsters
Hamsters are nocturnal animals and like to be active at night. So during the day, they usually hide and take a rest. To meet this habit of theirs, you can set up a hiding house in the cage so that they have a quiet resting space during the day.
The Selection and Maintenance of Hamster Cages
Size: The hamster cage should be large enough for the hamster to move and play freely. Generally, the recommended size is 35 centimeters in length × 25 centimeters in width × 30 centimeters in height.
Equipment: The cage should be equipped with necessary equipment such as a running wheel, a water bottle, a food bowl, and a sand bath box to meet the daily activity and cleaning needs of hamsters.
Cleaning: Clean and disinfect the cage regularly, keep the bedding clean and replace it regularly to ensure the health of hamsters.
Through the above measures, an ideal living environment can be provided for pet hamsters to ensure their health and well-being.
