You could put her in the ball for a while, but not too long maybe. Didn't you say it kept falling apart though?! Or a large cardboard box with high sides some substrate in, as a playcage maybe. I put Charlie in his pet carrier and he tends to go to sleep.

I saw a cage clean video where the owner took the cage top off and popped it over the top of the hammy with the hammy on the floor. So basically the hammy was still in the cage but without the base - to stop him escaping - while she cleaned out the base part. That might be an idea too.
