What Cage Should I Get?
For Syrian Hamsters The mimumum cage size Is 80x50cm the Hamster Heaven and the Savic Mickey 2XL match this size, although if you can personally I would go bigger. such as a Hagen Zoozone 2, Hagen Alexander and they are both 100x50cm, Which ofcourse the bigger the better, Hamsters are small but need alot of space to move around! if you would like more information on sizes then please go to www.hamstercentral.com which is a forum for Hamster- owners. Bin Cages: these are actually plastic storage boxes available from supermarkets, they are very cheap and don't require alot of adjustments. Wire-Top Cages: these are widely available, from websites and stores. these cages are what we like to call 'Barred Cages' which have bars on the top and a plastic base tray (Removable) designed for easy-cleaning, which alot of people recommend these cages for Syrian Hamsters just as long as it is big enough. Plastic-Topped Cages: These cages are again widely available from stores and websites. These cages are cages like the: Ferplast mini denu, Hagen zoozone's and The imac bingo these 3 cages are all plastic topped cages but the imac bingo and the mini denu is way too small for a Syrian same goes for the Zoozone 1.
