Jack 72 Hamster cage

[lil860]

Looking to get the Jack 72 hamster cage for my syrian hammie Marge as she is quickly outgrowing the one she is in at the moment.

Is this suitable for a syrian it is a bit bigger than a savic cambridge. Does anyone have this cage. She also needs a larger wheel can anyone recommend a suitable one that will fit into the above cage also it will have too be a quiet one as she will be in my bedroom.

Thanks Leanne and Marge

I like the cage a lot and have had it for one of my Syrians (unfortunately she only lived in there a week). Some of the gaps at the top may need a cable tie to push where the sides meet the top closer and in addition to this you may need to do the same for a door, because some can be loose. You have to self assemble it as the cage bars fold flat and as recommended the catches for the level will need to be soaked in water for a little bit as otherwise they are stiff and may break.

As for a wheel, I took Biscuit's comfort wheel off the stand and made the gap in the wheel where it attaches bigger so it would fit over the bars comfortably:



Hope this helps!
