Question

What can I use to color my DIY toys if I don't have a pet store by me?

Community Answer

You can use pet-safe dye or vegetable dye. I would shy away from using any other dyes! Just make sure that you soak them long enough so that the color doesn't go away.

Question

Should I give my hamster a break if it's been running for a long time? How do I keep it away from bigger animals? What should I do if my hamster is tired?

Community Answer

Give your hamster a break if it has run for over 5-10 mins. To keep it away from bigger animals, keep them in separate cages. If your hamster is tired, put it in its cage to relax and check on it to make sure it's not sick or really tired out.

Question

What do I do if I want to do it with gerbils?

Community Answer

You can make the same maze, just be sure, just like with hamsters, that you watch them while they are using it.

Question

How do I make a two floor hamster maze?

Community Answer

You cold get two large boxes and place one on top of the other. Then, make a hole in the box you have put on top, so the hamster has to go up or down to reach the different level.

Question

My hamster likes seafood strips. Is it okay for my hamster treat?

Community Answer

No! Hamster are not supposed to eat any raw meat because it can affect their digestive systems and could even kill them.
