Default Re: Imac Fantasy cage review

Sorry but the cage and wheel are both far below the minimums for both Syrian and dwarf hamsters. Modular cages with tubes and levels are most certainly not suitable as cages for dwarf or Syrian hamsters as condensation can build up in the tubes and compartments and is altogether a very unhygienic and unnatural accommodation for any species of hamster. It is also thought by most people that if you keep adding levels onto a cage that isn't large enough that it will make it large enough, however this isn't true as hamsters are naturally ground dwellers.

Also, there's no such thing as an 8.5" Silent Spinner - the only sizes are 4.5", 6.5", and 12" - the 12" is the only size suitable for a Syrian and there have been reports of them not spinning well. Exactly the reason why low cages like this are not suitable as they cannot accommodate the 11" wheel that Syrian hamsters need.

Not trying to offend you in any way - just stating that in my opinion it isn't suitable for full-time living
