Did a whole house cleaning today.

Removed everything, vacuumed it all to the bare walls and wiped the floor and tubing down with peroxide.

Got a chance to weigh my Syrian male hamster for the first time since he arrived. Then he was around 80 grams. Today he weighs in at 185 grams.

Should I be concerned? Is he on target or overweight?

Also did a complete remodeling of his enclosure. Some items that added nothing I tossed. Moved the position of his wheel and the location of his sand box. Re-configured the wrapping of his 3" PVC tubing.

Felt doing so would give him a chance to re-explore things.
