Best Viovet buys?

[Bbhami]

I was just wondering, what are the best items you guys got from Viovet. I've been thinking of ordering some toys for the hammies but I'm not so sure what to get. I'm also not sure which toys would suit robos...

Any suggestions?

I haven't ordered from Viovet but I can tell you what Hector my robo likes. Being so tiny, you can get any supposed "hamster" tunnel/house that for a Syrian would be too compact. It mostly depends what look you want in your cage. .
Hector loves a tunnel. Popular have been a wooden adventure tunnel (a wooden tunnel with holes in) & more recently a yellow seesaw tunnel. I also have a yellow TV hidey that he sits in to eat treats. He also likes little wooden houses that he can climb on & hide in & I have a couple of trixie ones that have little ramps if he struggles to get in them. He loves his sand bath & I found a small willow ball that he likes,a lot of them were a bit big for him. And he loves his whimzee toothbrush. He liked the crocodile but he struggled to get though it a little bit.
And don't discount homemade houses & toys from boxes & loo rolls. He likes a empty loo roll or kitchen roll tube (I usually cut a hole in the middle as he likes to pop his head out). And in his playtub I put an empty Tunnocks snowball box,which is the perfect size with cut outs for him. I think other members use egg boxes too. I hope that helps? I can post links to Hector's thread & cages to help give ideas. And if you look in the robo section of the forum, you're get some great ideas of how other members have their robo cages set up & toys they like. (Far more inventive than mine. And I probably pinched half the ideas for toys from there anyway!)

I don't buy toys from viovet either & I don't have a robo but I'm sure they're much like the other dwarfs in as much as they like small things they can hide or dig around in so I agree you can't go wrong with any kind of tube, cardboard or bought ones, cardboard boxes, especially egg boxes, unglazed terracotta flower pots are another favourite with all of mine too, you can stuff them with substrate & hide a few treats or some food so they have a good dig which helps keep claws trim, they sometimes like to curl up & sleep in them too.

Thanks for the suggestions velma and cypher, I just got curious so I tried to place an order for my syrians. I was reluctant to order for the robos as everything seemed too big for them. I'll try and see if I can find tiny flower pots! Right now they're busy playing with toilet rolls I DIY'd for them. Will definitely check out Hector's thread for ideas!

I have ordered from Viovet before, and in my opinion, the flying saucer is the best value because they sell a medium for £3.50. I like Viovet because their prices are so affordable and their delivery rate is good!
