Re: Female syrian hamster
I agree her cage does look very open & quite empty. I would add in more things like cork tunnels or tubes, bendy bridges as something to climb on & hideout under, a sand bath & any other forms of enrichment to keep her busy & make her feel safer.
I would remove the swing, anything with chains can be dangerous for little paws & swings like that don’t really add much in the way of benefit for hams.
Most things sold as chew toys don’t tend to interest them much, whimzees are the best thing to try.
Her behaviour out of the cage is quite normal! Can you set up a play area with lots of toys, tunnels & other things for her to explore & enjoy?
