Hamster Care

  • Hamster loves to exercise. They are naturally energetic and will do a lot of running. So make sure you provide all necessary equipment such as hamster wheels or adequate size of running space for them.
  • Hamster are nocturnal creatures (active at night) so they need peace during the day to sleep. It is highly recommended to place the cage away from draughts and direct sunlight. 
  • The cage floor should be covered with adequate layer of bedding. You can use the commercial wood shaving as they are absorbent and non-toxic.
  • Hamster also needs privacy during their resting time. Build them a simple small room for them to sleep or you can buy tubes (available at selected pet store).
  • Feed your hamster adequately. Make sure they have enough food and more important water supply.
  • Wash the hamster cage once a week. Keep the cage clean to prevent any infection risk.
  • Bathing your hamster are not recommended, don't worry they can clean themselves.
  • Build a good relationship with your hamster. Talk to them, hold them and playing with them will make your hamster happy.
