Re: Thoughts??
That must have been so scary SKB! I’m so sorry that it happened to Sherbert.
Thankfully, I am lucky enough to have a room with no holes or furniture to climb around/under. This is my hall, which also runs over half the length of my house, so provides a wonderful running area. However, if I did not have this utterly water tight (so to speak) area, I too woud use a playpen. And I would not reccommend letting a hamster run free anywhere that was any less secure. I realise most people aren’t lucky enough to have such a perfect place, and playpens are obviously a wonderful substitute which a hamster will be very happy in. I don’t want to give the impression that you need to let your hamster roam, no matter what. There needs to be a bit of risk assessment first!
