Questions
would this ball be large enough for a Syrian Hamster, and would their feet get stuck in the cracks, I don't want my baby to get hurt.
- Too small. Get the next size up! I bought this for ours originally and never used it because it was too small. Better suited for a dwarf hamster or mouse.

Would this be good for a panda hamster because I just got one and it needs ball.
- Hi there! We'd recommend the 7" version of our Run-About Ball for your hamster.

is it good for mice
- We have a miniature hamster and he loves it!! Just don’t forget to close all doors that lead to stairs!!

can you use this for a dwarf hamster
- I purchased two of these for each of my dwarf hamsters but I don't recommend it. Please check some youtube vids as to why it's not recommended.

Is this okay to use for a medium sized rat?
- I personally would probably go another size up for a medium sized. My sons dwarf hamster uses the small one and it’s small.
Helpful?
Do some gerbils like running in these? If so, is this the correct size?
- Actually this is not ok for any pet

If my hamster runs around in a 7 inch ball is a 6.5 inch wheel to small for her? She fits just right in her ball since she is a bigger hamster (teddy bear) so I worry that if I order a smaller wheel she won't fit
So I recently posted a pic of my hamsters new set up. People said that CritterTrail is too small for her. She has two cages and then tubes connecting them. She runs in her ball for 4 hrs a day with a break each hour for water and food. Should I make her a bin cage or keep the CritterTrails cage?
How to make my gerbil exercise? I got two, one like to run but other don't like. And is exercise ball recommended? How often to change the house setup?
So before I got an exercise ball for my hedgie Noel, I asked a vet on here. I’ve had it for months but I’ve probably only put her in it like 5 times. Yesterday I posted a picture of her in it on a pet social media (zoopix) and someone told me that small pets shouldn’t be in it for 3 reasons— 1. Because their feet can slip through 2. Because of poor ventilation. 3. Because it scares them. Is that true? I mean I know that there are risks but should I not be putting her in it?
My small dog ate the rubber from a tennis ball
Trying to find a small pet that can roam around a room safely probably not a ferret because I have a hamster in the same room could a guinea pig or rabbit be Free roamed in the room or is there any other pets that could thank you
I was wondering if it’s normal for my hamster to poop in her ball? It’s usually more than 5-10 pieces of poop. The poop isn’t soft or strange and it’s regular hamster poop consistency.
Is a 112 quart bin a good size for a hamster to live in?
I am getting a hedgehog and have been told to get a small enclosed space to put in the cage for sleeping. Recommendations???
Is it better for my one eyed hamster to have a cage that is 527 sq. in. rather than a much bigger cage? Are there any precautions I should take to ensure a better life for him? Thanks so much!
Our hamster gets very jumpy in her cage and has been bar biting a little bit, she has a large cage with two wheels and goes in her exercise ball 4-5 times a week. She is better while handling but flinches in her cage, especially after it being cleaned. She also chatters her teeth a lot. Would any aroma help her feel more safe and relaxed?
This is Dexter, my gorgeous 7 year old rescued hound, & his 4 year old ball. He loves his ball & can find it anywhere we hide it in the house or yard. 2nd picture is his new ball. It squeaks like his old ball & smells like bacon. He seemed to like new ball & we played inside for a couple hours off & on. When I took him outside & threw it he ran to the ball sniffed it &walked away. The only ball he brings is the old one. What should I do? Thanx. Carolyn.
