Re: Rotastack Cages
Most hamster owners on this forum disagree with modular cages, as do I, I've have over 20 hamsters this year alone and find they do better in cages with space rather than modular cages. Most of the hamsters were also rescues previously living in them.
In general, this forum goes with the recommended RSPCA cage size, which is 75x40cm of unbroken space, something like an Alaska or Hamster Heaven.
When I first brought a hamster home in a pod like yours, I knew immediately it was too small. Especially the wheel, Syrians need larger wheels and toys than Dwarf hamsters and it can be impossible to fit a correct one into a modular cage.
They can also be a pain to clean, and with new hamsters, they may not want to come out with tubes etc to hide in.
