Default Re: Guide to Buying a Cage

I am looking into getting a bigger cage for my hamster soon as I want her to have more space to run around in and so she can have more toys inside the cage.

Any pet shops in my area and many of the cages I have looked at online seem to only have bigger cages in the aquarium/tank style. But I read that because hamsters have pretty poor eyesight, the curved corners of the aquarium type cages and the glass/plastic material makes it hard for them to see the walls and corners of their cage which confuses them and makes them bump into the walls.

Is this true? I wouldn't want to stress little Sander out or cause her any injuries by bumping into things.

In anyone's experience, which is better - a metal barred cage or the aquarium type?
