I just bought Heaven a 47in x 24 in circular playpen for dogs or bunnys. I could fit in there with Heaven. I can't imagine myself with any other Syrian hamster, she is just perfect for me. Definitely a blessing to have her.

She gets up around 6pm & stays awake all evening so I have a good companion. I hope she lives a long time. She was a rescue so it's hard to know for sure her age?

So Heaven has her exercise ball & this play pen now for entertainment.

That isn't going to work for a hamster

The bar spacing on wire ones is massive(1 inch,far too large for any hamster species even Syrians).The fabric ones are also unsafe due to not being digestible if eaten,which is always a risk with hamsters.

I cancelled the order, save myself money as she might try to eat it, thanks Amity

There is a thread on here about a playpen. It is one of those shoe rack things in a solid kind of plastic like c and c grids but not grids.

So glad that she is such a good fit for you.

I'm so glad to hear that you and Heaven are so close. She sounds like s very sweet hamster.

Yeah the C & C grids Flowerfairy suggested might work. I use them for my piggies cage. I believe the thread is in the DIY section.

Ok, thanks FF & Chesca, I remember seeing the thread but it looked like blocks side by side, I would imaging that the inside panels are missing. Don't know if I could find that in this area? I'll have to look for that thread.

Sounds like a lot of work maybe I'll just let her use the tub with a towel down

Cinnamon Bear, congrats on your adopting Heaven. She seems like the perfect sweetheart for you to cuddle with. What a lovely story of your moments with her. I am so pleased that you have each other to love and care for. You both truly have an amazing, special bond. It is so sweet that she instantly was tamed and bonded with you. She probably realized from the very start that you were meant for each other. She is just another amazing miracle for you to know that your silver lining has finally come your way. Enjoy each others company and make those most precious memories together. She is a truly lovely and gorgeous girl, and I couldn't be any happier for you. I absolutely LOVE the pics; thanks for sharing! I hope that she lives a long and happy life with you because you both deserve only happiness.

Use the bath until a suitable play area cones your way. Heaven will love it. Do you have like a small room that you could use for her to play? If you do then you could block part of it off so it's not too big and gradually increase the area as she progresses.

dreamtree, she is another miracle & I hope she lives a long happy life with me too

Lizzy, that's a good idea, I could block off the bathroom floor and let her go at it.
Never thought of that..
