Questions

- Hi there! We recommend our Kaytee Crittertrail 2-Level Habitat for two mice!

Can this cage fit a Dwarf Hamster? I read some reviews and was wondering if I does. We were planing to get one.
- No. On it's own this would not be okay for a dwarf hamster. 360 square inches for dwarves. Minimum. At 168 square inches, it doesn't cut it at all. If you were to attach it to a bin cage it would be fine (that's what I did for my hamster) or you could just save money by making a bin cage! These are large, easy to make, escape-proof, and CHEAP! The price range for the three of mine was 25$-45$ to make, including bin and wire. Skip the money and stress for your hamster and make a bin cage!

Why is it so small? also attaching another cage won't meet the bare minimum.
- Thank you for your feedback. We'd be more than happy to discuss this habitat as well as other options that may be suitable for you. Please feel welcome to contact us directly at 1-800-529-8331.

Is this cage big enough for a field mouse?
- It depends. Did you capture your field mouse? Because if you did, set it free. Please. If it is hurt, yes this would work. But once it gets well, please set it free. If it is a mouse that you found as a baby and cared for, then yes, this should work.

Is this cage good for a Syrian hamster?
- No this is a terrible cage. Especially for Syrians. Try over a 40-gallon tank, your hamster will be a lot happier in an aquarium.

This is way, WAY too small. How many inches of floor space is there anyway?
- This is 168 square in. That is 282 in under the bare min

Is this big enough for a normal sized hamster? Also are the colors this bright in real life? Because they kinda bug me but this is the best deal I’ve seen
- This cage is not a good cage for a “normal sized hamster”. A quick lesson: there are five species of domesticated hamster. Syrian (sometimes called golden, teddy bear, black bear, panda bear hamster, etc.), Chinese, Russian Campbells (often just called RCD or Campbells), Winter White (though you’d never find a purebred WW or RCD hamster from pet smart, they get their hamsters from pet mills), and Robo (roborovskii is their scientific name so they are called robos). This cage is not suitable for any of them. The size, so much smaller than the BARE minimum, makes it basically animal cruelty. The flimsiness... your hamster would be so stressed and bored in this flimsy cage that they would escape immediately. There have been scientific studies on hamsters to se how much space they need, you know. They proved that some female Syrian hamsters (what you’re probably referring to as normal hamsters) are not happy in cages over 1,000 square inches. Don’t keep any animal in this plastic prison. And don’t pretend that connecting them makes it any less horrid. This cage is tiny and I wouldn’t even use it for a travel cage. This is NOT a good deal on a good cage. This is a bad deal on a terrible cage. Get your hamster a bin cage: if you already have the bin they’re pretty much free. Get your hamster a detolf: though they’re $60, they are like a large aquarium but cheaper (though they are too small for Syrians with a height of 14 inches and floor space of 930 square inches). Get your hamster an ikea pax: they can cost from $50 to $150 and the SMALLEST size is 1,500 square inches. Please, don’t place your hamster in this plastic torture chamber. Don’t. For anyone who was wondering, hamsters are basically colorblind so they won’t be bothered by the colors, but you will be. That is, if you choose to sentence your beloved pet to live out its life in a flimsy plastic torture chamber.

Is this big enough for two gerbils?
- NO PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS! THIS CAGE IS NEGLECT FOR EVEN ONE GERBAL! GET A 200 quart BIN instead, THEY ARE ABOUt 30 DOLLARS! FIND A YOUTUBE VIDEO ON HOW TO MAKE A BIN CAGE!!!!!!!

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?
for a russian dwarf hamster, 7 weeks old, Dimensions: 13.500 inches H x 20.125 inches W x 33.000 inches L, is this enough ventilation? the holes are at the top of the container, 4"x24"
What should I get for a year old rabbit? I’m a first time small pet owner & haven’t brought Mello (pet) home yet because I’m afraid I don’t have everything I need. I’m ordering hay, bedding, pellets & a litter box as well as an outdoor play pen. My friend is giving me a cage.
I'm looking to get this cage. The chart says it's good for two guinea pigs, which I have. In the comments a lot of people say their two guinea pigs were happy. But I just wanted to be sure. I'm thinking about getting this cage and then getting another later on to attach to it and expand it. What do you think? I'm stuck with a large rabbit cage and I know I need to get them something better so that's why I'm looking at this one.
Hey I have a small floor stand that is 25 1/2 inches in Length and 1 ft in width what is the maximum size tank I should put on it?
I am setting up a new habitat for my 2 sibling gerbils. I want it to be as natural of a habitat as their ancestors in the wild live in. Which substrate would you recommend that would be as natural as they would receive in their desert environment?
SO i am thinking about getting a leopard gecko, but i am not spending a ridiculous amount of money on a cage so i am using a plastic laundrey hamper that seems about maybe 10 gallons and i am setting up little hiddy spots and stuff but i dont know wha tbeedding i should use and how much light they need please hep :)
What are the stuff I need for a complete Rabbit first Aid kit?
Is this a good setup for Nighthawk, the first photo is the over all setup, the second one is the side view and the third is the water and calcium dishes. I use an under tank heater that stays at about 88 degrees Fahrenheit and the vines are fake. He has a warm hide and a cold hide with moss in it that’s i spray down every other day. The little box is another little hide that I can see him in. And the background is tile it paper rolls that were painted(they were left to dry for two weeks)
Hello my name is Cheyenne! I have owned my Yellow Bellied slider since it was a hatchling, so a little over six years. It is 8 1/2-9 inches long. So he/she is a pretty big! So I have a couples of questions that I hope you can help answer... 1. It needs a bigger tank, it is in I think a 20-30 gl right now which is to small. I have been looking for a normal glass one but can’t find any that are in my price range and can’t seem to find any used for the size I am looking for. I have been looking in
I found a baby turtle upside-down in a puddle about the size of a plate. He was barely moving, and there was no creek within a few miles. I took him in and got a 10 gallon tank. I went to a creek and got some water from that, and some little rocks and made a habitat. I got a best lamp as well. What should I do? Should I keep him and care for him? Also, what should I feed him? I sent some pics to tell size and type.
I've got a few questions. First my two birds are having a hard time bonding with me how do I fix that? Second I think my hamster needs a bigger cage, picture below, 3rd my leopard gecko has a heating Rock does that mean I can leave his light off during the night? How often should I clean out my bunnies litter box? My birds are starting to pluck their feathers due to boredom we're getting toy soon but how do I keep it from becoming a Habit in the meantime? Thanks!
