I tried playpens but our hamsters had one thing on their minds: how to escape from them to get a proper run around.
I used to pluck Rodney off the top of the clothes rail in his younger days. He used to climb up the clothes like your Daisy climbs the curtains. They are sneaky with it and climb so we don't notice until they reach the top.
Jack isn't that good at climbing because he struggles to pull his 280g weight up. I've watched him doing pull ups and fall off.
