High-five Schwartzie! It's just that the pet stores here provide so much misleading information that I'd think about 95% of the hamsters here aren't given their basic needs (a lot of owners are well-intentioned, but it's misplaced because they unknowingly invest in things like crittertrails). That's why every hamster that is given a good home such a delight to hear about!

Yeah, some of those tanks marketed as suitable are really way too small. I was just cleaning out one of Louise's hides that came with her original cage and realised how ridiculously small it was (great for her as a Robo to snuggle in, but an adult Syrian would hardly have room to turn around in it). Hopefully you are able to get a suitable enclosure soon.
