FAQs

What kind of bedding is best?

Use pet-safe bedding, such as paper-based bedding or aspen shavings. Avoid cedar or pine shavings as they can be harmful to small animals.

How often should I clean the cage?

A thorough cleaning of the cage is recommended at least once a week, or more frequently if needed. Spot clean daily.

Is the cage suitable for multiple hamsters?

It depends on the species and temperament of the hamsters. Syrian hamsters are solitary and should not be housed together. Dwarf hamsters may live together if introduced at a young age.

What should I feed my hamster or gerbil?

Provide a balanced diet of commercial hamster/gerbil food, fresh vegetables, and occasional treats. Ensure fresh water is always available.

How do I assemble the cage?

Follow the detailed instructions included with the cage. These will guide you through each step of the assembly process. You can also reference online videos.

What are the dimensions of the cage?

Overall dimensions: 57H x 57L x 43Wcm. Base dimensions: 35H x 57L x 43Wcm. Main cage dimensions: 24H x 51L x 36Wcm.

What if my pet chews on the cage?

Provide plenty of safe chew toys to redirect chewing behavior. Supervise your pet, and if excessive chewing is a problem, consider different cage materials or enrichment options.

Troubleshooting

Cage is unstable or wobbly after assembly.

Double-check all connections and tighten screws if necessary. Ensure the cage is placed on a level surface.

Pet is escaping the cage.

Ensure all doors are securely closed and latched. Check the wire spacing for any potential gaps or areas where the pet might be escaping. Make sure the lid fits correctly.

Difficulty in cleaning the cage.

Use a pet-safe cleaner and a soft brush or cloth to wipe down the surfaces. Remove and replace the bedding regularly. The dual doors facilitate access for cleaning.
