I'm not sure the ZZ1 is best for Wiflred - not sure he is happy in there but might just be me getting over worried as I've not had syrians for 15-20 years and am use the older boys here who are much quieter!
He is fine in the day just sleeps but at 11pm he wakes up - last night he had me up loads as I was worried by all the noise - need to get a better wheel as this ones way too loud.
He tried constantly to get up to the lid and is going silly at the water bottle - think he knows there is a hole there where the bottle is.
He got a tiny scratch/cut on his lip/mouth last night too which also worried me - don't want him hurting himself.
I'm now wondering would a gerbil type deep tank be better? I can't have glass as need to move it sometimes, unless I shuffle the cages round maybe.
Think he will chew a bin cage or find the air holes to chew in a bin cage, not sure a cage is better like the Cambridge - think he will just swing on the bars or chew them.
Anyone else had these concerns - I'm over fussing no doubt but want him to be happy, equally don't want to be buying too many cages
He's just a happy young hammy keen to explore, love him to bits but want him to have a house he is safe in and can't hurt himself in (and a quiet wheel is needed to!)
