Default Re: When to rearrange cage with a new hamster?

This is our last hamster, Charlie in the rat sputnik - he could climb out of it and onto the open door to get in and out.

I also had one of these little lava ledges just above the end of the house where there was a gap. Our hammy liked sitting under that too. They just screw to the bars.

Thanks so much for all the photos Serendipity! Your advice is really helpful. It's good to hear that the Leif house is too small, I was a bit scared that it would be so I'm definitely not getting it now. He's still a small hamster but he's only 2-3 months old and has some growing left, I don't want him to get stuck in the future. I'll try out with a cardboard box at first - a Rodipet house looks nice but it's quite a lot of money for a concept I'd like to try out first and I already have several shoeboxes.

In terms of sputniks, is this the one you call a rat size? Just to clarify. The one I have is roughly 21cm so I'm guessing it's equivalent to the smaller one you had.
