You can try using glass. Just buy some cut-to-order glass from glass shop and glue them together using silicon glue. Or using wood and nail. I think tropical hardwood should be okay for hamster, but not pine or cedar which are harmful.

Found the best solution from Daiso. They sell these poles (with rubberised ends on each side) that you can twist to elongate – usually placed in a cupboard to hang clothes, etc. I got two for RM5, placed it across the tank (it holds up to 2.5kg) and put a RM5 wooden board, also from Daiso on top of it. INSTANT 2ND FLOOR PLATFORM! Then I used his flexi-stick to work as the staircase.

Daiso has answers to (almost) everything!

picture plss

yes picture!

Okay! Here's the photo of the new DIY. You can see the pink sticks, those are the extendable poles from Daiso, and so is the wooden board (originally meant to be a chopping board). I love how the flexi-sticks make a nice staircase, but it was a little too steep so I used some Jenga wood blocks to give some height to the base and lessen the steepness.

nice!
what bedding you using?
the 2nd floor there is bedding?

I'm using this CareFresh brand (I think that's the name, has the word fresh in it) from Pets Lovers Centre, and they also have a VERY NICE confetti-multi-colored bedding, which I bought also but haven't use yet. The 2nd floor bedding is there, just place a thin layer on the wood, so he will not dig it, cos too little.

The pink plastic thing below is his sandbox which he uses to do his digging, and sometimes peeing.

my hamster always dig no matter how thick or thin the bedding is
even can kick till outside the cage

Oh, haha. Well I guess each hamster have their own preferences. That's why I prefer using a glass tank, nothing gets out.
And I just remembered, I used the rainbow-confetti for the guinea pig, if you want to see how it looks like: http://snapwidget.com/v/820598118978880199

very nice! its hard to get those good bedding here. how much does the care fresh cost you? can use how long?

It's about RM36 if I'm not mistaken, and it lasts quite long for hamsters, about a month over. But of course depends on your cage size. It's good cos the absorption rate is amazing! My bottle was leaking but only a small section got soggy.

nice. u mean changing it once a month?

No, no. I change my hamster's bedding once a week (like a full clean – everything is washed and sprayed clean), but I spot clean every two days, picking out smelly litter and replacing with clean ones.

Which PLC outlet did u get the CareFresh bedding? Because I've seen people said that Malaysia don't have that brand

Actually, I don't think my brand was CareFresh, but it has the word 'fresh' in it. I'll go home and check for you.

Oh, okay thanks

have similar bedding on PLC.
