I have 2 hamsters. One dwarf and one long haired Syrian. I have a huge hutch for my Syrian hamster. I'm looking for a new cage for my dwarf. I found the rotastak pink palace. However, I've been having trouble finding somewhere that will ship to the US. Can someone help me?
Thank you all so very much. I look forward to hearing your responses.

Hi & welcome to the forum :)

That rotastak cage really isn't suitable for a ham tbh, modular cages with lots of tubes don't work well, if you can't find a decent cage preferably about 80x50cm on just one level then you might want to consider making a bin cage from a large plastic storage box.
I'm not sure what cages are available in the US now but someone else might know.

Good point. I've been thinking of making a bin cage. Are you able to post pics of your cages? My Syrian has the life. He lives in a small animal hutch. Thank you so much for your reply! What kind of hamsters do you have? How old are they?

I've been having a quick look at hamster cages in the US & you can get both the Hamster Heaven & Savic Mickey cages on Amazon but they are really expensive compared to here so unless you want to spend a lot a bin cage is probably your best bet.
I have two male Chinese hams, one aged two the other 15 months & a Russian hybrid aged 19 months, I don't have any really recent photos of their cages but there are some older ones here.
This is my only bin cage for my younger Chinese.

This is my Hamster Heaven cage for my older Chinese.

and this is my Savic Mickey for my Russian hybrid, I've changed the layout quite a lot now but it might still give you an idea.
