I have had my hamster Rothko for nearly 5 months and honestly... i am thinking of giving him to someone else. I love him very much but i cannot stop him biting the bars on his cage and it keeps me awake all night. I have tried multiple runs in his ball before i go to sleep, i have tried lemon juice on the bars, i have put treats attached to the bars he bites to distract him but he moves them, i have bought him a bigger cage, i have given him many chews, i just dont know what else to do. I cant put him in another room bc my dog cant be left with him unsupervised (i keep my door shut when im not there)
my anxiety levels rise a whole lot when i havent slept much and this is honestly not good for me. I dont mind the sound of his wheel, i dont mind any other noise he makes, but the bar biting keeps me up all night.
I have spent quite a bit of money on him and im worried my mum will be mad if i tell her i cant keep him.
i dont know what to do. advice?
