Question HEAT MAT. Thinking ahead for the winter.

My house is quite cold during the winter I'm worried that my room will be so cold he may go into hibernation. Please give me some advice. Thank you Abby & Rizla the Hamster.

What sort of cage do they have? With my dwarf hamsters I always had a wire cage in warmer months and a covered in plastic cage in the cooler months. Hopefully the other members have better ideas

i dont think a heatmat is a good idea although i dont know much about them, i would definitely stay away from them and just put the cage in the warmest place of your house and he'll be fine he'll be used to the temperature anyway so it would affect him more if it was suddenly really warm :P
