Quick cage shopping help!

ok so I have some spare money and 2 cage choices....

Ferplast Duna Multy
Hamster Heaven

have found both for the same price, and it's for my little Syrian hamster Daisy
who loves burrowing and climbing! She's still very shy so I could do with easy access, but if not I can keep her in her smaller cage (Ferplast Mini Duna) for a bit longer as she's only 7 weeks old
I've got a wodent wheel that I'd prefer to keep on it's stand - will that fit in the Hamster Heaven?
and how easy is the Hamster Heaven to assemble?

thank you!

The hamster heaven is the only one I can comment on as Ive never owned a Duna Multy but I have a senior wodent wheel in there and it fits well (the stand is attached to the bars), the access is great, with a small door on the top of the cage where the penthouse is and a huge door on the front of the cage, there are great climbing opportunities without any huge drops and the base is deep enough to allow for digging.

I also reccomend the hamster heaven. I have a junior wodent wheel in mine, with the stand and there's still loads of space left for toys etc. You can remove the tubes and penthouse too if you wish.

do you have to get stoppers or is there a way you remove them without stoppers if you get me?!

idk because i've never had any of these cages lol...
i'd add a digging tower if she likes to dig

a cheap plastic bin from sainsburys does it for me, with a ramp

Becaues some of my hamsters are bar chewers i'd go for the multy, but the HH looks really good too

i wouldnt get a mini though, as she'll grow out of it then you'd need another

no, she's in a mini duna at the moment - sold to me as suitable size for full grown. Good job I did some research

I had to buy the stoppers seperately but you need them so the hamster doesn't escape through the holes!

They are very cheap though.
