So cleaned Jupiter's cage just now and put her in the playpen. But it's become very clear that she doesn't like the playpen at all as she keeps trying to escape. I changed the set-up of her cage again, mostly so she wouldn't climb on top of her water bottle all the time. But it's been 15 minutes since I put her in the cage and all she's been trying to do is climb things in an attempt to escape. BUT I did see her use her wheel more, so that's good.

I did some free roaming with her in the hallway which she seemed to enjoy, as she didn't try and escape as much. She's quite a handful, but luckily doesn't mind being handled.

I took some HQ photos of her and some of her new cage set-up. Enjoy!

Some photos of her (and her attempted escape)

Thank you for sharing the lovely photos and video. The last photo especially is super cute and the one where the little monkey is about to climb up the bottle is so funny.

My hamsters don't like the playpen either but one likes free roaming, one climbs all over the futon and me, one likes a playpen box and one won't come out to play at all.

In the playpen they either sit and sulk or try to get out and i have no idea why that is the case but the playpen is gathering dust.

Jupiter seems to hate the playpen so I just let her roam free in the hallway. But even there she tries to dig corners after a while. Never can get enough space haha

She is a cheeky monkey! Some females are quite maverick.

She sure is! But it's such an improvement from when I first got her. She took a lot of time to come out of her shell and when she did she practically yelled HERE I AM!

It's been a month! Jupiter is doing very well. She's been more active than before though and often bites the mesh on the lid of her cage a lot. But when I take her out for some free running in the hallway or my bedroom (she's currently in my bedroom with me as I'm writing this) she usually calms down again. She loves climbing and digging so I changed her cage set-up to cater to both needs. I'm a little worried that she won't like that I changed her cage twice in a short period, but I'm intending to leave it alone now.

Here's a picture of the cage:
