Re: Project "hamster upgrade"
Project Hamster Upgrade is complete!!!
I struggled a bit trying to get the glass into the place it was meant to go and ended up having to make the track a bit bigger to fit. But we got there. Then I added some patterned window sticker to the back to make it a bit better looking. It has two lids instead of one big one, which makes it easier to get into one side and lift. Ive put a little catch on the lid to stop her pushing one side up, but hopefully she won't do that. Secured the mesh on with a staple gun and some upins when i ran out of staples.
Ive mixed the top layer of fitch with the substrate from her old cage so its familiar to her. Now just got to leave her alone for a couple of days to settle in. She is currently pounding her wheel burning off some nervous energy i think. I'm happier now knowing she has the right size wheel in there now. Ive put the contents of her plant pot where she slept in her old cage into the little house and her horde under the wooden half log.
Im really pleased with it and hope she enjoys her new forever home

Re: Project "hamster upgrade"
It looks wonderful! I'm sure Khali is going to love it once she's settled. I really like that straw hut, and how you wrapped the bendy bridge around the sand bath container

Thankyou! Im really pleased with it. Ive been thinking of ways to stop her kicking substrate into her sandbath, so thought wrapping the bendy bridge round it would raise it up a bit. Failing that I will make her a lollipop stick cover for it. The little monkey has hardly been off that wheel in over an hour haha. Downside - it wont fit i with substrate beneath si its on the glass base. Noisy! But its worth it
