What is the hemp formed like?
If its like a carpet I would cable tie it on. If not then I would weave it round the wire

Yep, it's like a natural carpet :'D
Coolcat , it does not have anything to do with the drug, it's comparable to thick ropes out of hemp, maybe you can allay your dads doubts by showing him a wikipedia article or something similar :>
My english is not good enough to explain the difference xDD

"Hemp is the natural, durable soft fiber from the stalk of Cannabis sativa plants that grow upwards of 20 feet tall. Cannabis plants used for hemp production are not valued for recreational uses, as the plants that are cultivated for hemp produce minimal levels of the psychoactive compound THC. Cannabis plants intended for any drug cultivation is not so easy to hide in a hemp field either, as the size and height of each are significantly different."

Yes, hemp is not going to harm hamsters, or anything else for that matter. Hemp has been used for years and years for household things (think sackcloths) and is now a popular material for organic clothing.

I'm quite excited about creating a carpet for Muffin! Hope it lasts a while...x
