I've never seen a Syrian get the hang of one

Good question! Been looking back at all my past orders from my usual sites, but can't find it!! If I do I'll let you know

I think it's this one - looks a bit like it - I used to have it but Charlie wouldn't use it so I got him the guinea pig sized one the same style and put a tunnel over the door and he loved that.

This is a much better house for a Syrian though - it's way too small for a guinea pig but just right for a hamster. And the roof lifts off so you can check inside without taking the house out. No nails or glue either. It's flat pack and slots together like a jigsaw.

I found the other one a bit small for a Syrian.

It's a little like the first, except there is no window and the door space is bigger ... Such a mystery how comes I can't find it anywhere on any of my recent orders LOL

Ah so it's not that one. Is it the Zooplus one?

Sorry, it was the amazon one! Took a better look at it last night. Sweep is tiny but doesn't use this house as he has another. Actually he has 2 the same, just different sizes!

Sweep here!
I got all excited this morning because my new home arrived!! But I couldn't have it because it was broken

So after a play in the play place I was returned to my current home where I had some breakfast and a wash, and then promptly went back to bed! Am a little sad as I was looking forward to it!
See you later
Sweep

Picture 1 is the 4 bits that were broken and pictures 2 and 3 are the two sides that were broken. The pink human lady said there was no protection inside the box to stop it breaking

Poor Sweep. I'm sure you will get a new cage soon.

If the cage was delivered by Yodel. See if DPD is an option for delivery as quite a lot of people who's cage was delivered by Yodel received broken cages.

Aw it is such a shame! I would be gutted. Good point there and useful info about DPD and Yodel CMB! I think you do get the option. Hope Zooplus get it sorted for you asap.
