QUOTE(kimyee73 @ Sep 15 2014, 02:50 PM) You can try to toilet-trained them but does not guarantee they will not pee anywhere else. You'll also find shit everywhere including food bowl. I used to wash the wheel every 2 days but now weekly only if it is smelly. Sometime no pee-on-wheel for the week. The nest is different. Weekly scrubbing as it is very dirty and stink. Ever see a rat's nest before? It look just like one, and hamster is a rodent. hahanest i change once a week la demm |

QUOTE(kimyee73 @ Sep 26 2014, 11:59 AM) I'm using shredded paper, the most cost effective. If not already have a paper shredder, buy one, it is one time investment and can use to shred your important documents as well before throwing them out. A pack of A4 papers cost about rm8 and can last for several months if you replace every week, or years if replace monthly. Don't use printed paper though as the ink could be toxic to hamster if ingested. You can see the photo I attached several post ago on water bottle for glass tank. i'm thinking of doing the samedoing the bedding with shredded papers but mine is much much more shorter i think around 0.6cm long and 0.2cm wide but got black ink from photocopy printer la |

QUOTE(raisedbywolves @ Sep 29 2014, 06:34 PM) 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. picture plssDaiso has answers to (almost) everything! |

QUOTE(raisedbywolves @ Sep 30 2014, 11:13 AM) 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![attachmentid=4153029] what bedding you using? the 2nd floor there is bedding? |

QUOTE(raisedbywolves @ Sep 30 2014, 11:26 AM) 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. my hamster always dig no matter how thick or thin the bedding is The pink plastic thing below is his sandbox which he uses to do his digging, and sometimes peeing. even can kick till outside the cage |

QUOTE(raisedbywolves @ Sep 30 2014, 11:46 AM) Oh, haha. Well I guess each hamster have their own preferences. That's why I prefer using a glass tank, nothing gets out. very nice! its hard to get those good bedding here. how much does the care fresh cost you? can use how long?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 |

QUOTE(raisedbywolves @ Sep 30 2014, 12:08 PM) 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? |
