Try and not fret over the cage size for now. He is a baby hamster and needs calmness and routine before a move to a large cage which can be stressful and overwhelming for a baby  |
Oh ok! Should I wait a couple months then, rather than next month, before I get a new cage?
Also, sorry to ask again; but why should I remove the level from the cage? His food and water bottle are up there and I don't want to stress him too much, since I'm already removing the tubes? Am I in the wrong?
