The purchase of a hamster presumes the provision of a suitable house where he will feel good and will be able to climb and run, satisfying his needs. A usual small box with a cave that is partitioned off is not very expedient. Very soon, with his sound teeth, the hamster will gnaw a slit towards the fatal freedom and will run away. Therefore you should not save on the way that you will shelter the animal. In the long run, you will be able to enjoy the hamster only in case and he is pleased with his home. Even if you are breeding only one representative, the bigger cage offers more advantages for the impulse of the animal to move. Today, in the trade network of animals are already offered different models of hamster cages that meet the requirements of his breeding. The sizes of the hamster's house should not be under 50x25x25 centimeters in order not to cause any disturbances in his behavior.
Hamster cage
The perfect hamster cage is equipped with a cross-beam because the hamsters love climbing. The bottom consists of hygienic plastic and is easily separated from the cross-beam and could be wholly cleaned. The cage ...
... itself is supposed to be opened only from the upside in order the hamster to be brought out easily.
If the cage is in occupation of two hamsters it should have a bigger base or to be higher. Particularly suitable in this case are cages with a height over 30 centimeters. It gives the possibility of cleverly instalment of second floor through climbing facilities. Hamsters accept such transformation very well. Today you can already find hamster cages of several floors on the market. Most of them offer a huge variety of equipment devices of the cage that could be used for the breeding of only one hamster. Hamster's sleeping house can be arranged on the first floor and down to be his place for eating and storage of the toys. The opposite variant is also possible. Boundless is the fantasy in equipping similar cages which is in accord with the driving spirit of the hamster. If a generation is expected, the nest better to be on a lower level.
Cages for guinea-pigs and domestic rabbits appear which otherwise are very spacious appear to be not very suitable because of the grating that is extremely set wide apart. For mini hamsters such are practically unusable. Mini hamsters which will have posterity, it is an obligation to observe little distance between the sticks of the cage in order that
animals not get stuck.

Hamster's house
The sleeping house is the most essential element of the furnishing and it is unabolished part of every hamster's lodging. The consequences from the long impossibility for sleep and rest in some sheltered and dark hiding-place could reveal serious disturbances of the behavior and increased irritability. In the zoo shops you can find hamsters' houses, made of wood and plastic. Anyway, what is important is not the material but the performance. Very suitable for this purpose is the so called crittertrail . The lifting roof has some advantages, for example, we are able to look secretly in the house when there are babies. You can buy also shelters with floor that have
the advantage that in case of moving nothing can be lost or forgotten. If the form of the houses is more or less a matter of taste or preference, the size is of huge importance since hamsters need a spacious hollow. Unfortunately many of the houses for golden hamsters which are offered in the specialized shops, for unknown reasons, are usually too small and even do not meet the minimum size requirements - 14x12x10 centimeters. This capacity is quite enough for mini hamsters but in fact they are constructed for golden hamsters which soon will feel uncomfortable in such a narrow shelter. With his firm conviction that reorganizes his house
in order to take more material for the nest and to clear additional place for reserves, the golden hamster gnaws his house with the sharp teeth which is not very pleasant for neither for you nor for him. Plastic houses that cannot be devastated in such manner are avoided in this case. Similar little homes are not suitable at all for the breeding of couple of hamsters or their cubs since the nest itself requires larger\cage and the cubs that grow with every passing day need more and more space. For proper and sparing breeding of the animals you should buy at any cost only such a sleeping house that is big enough for the needs of your hamster. If you do not find a ready made on the market you shouldn't worry because it is very easy to build a wooden house for golden hamster.
