4 Unsafe hamster products
Today i will talk about unsafe hamster products and alternatives you can use.
The first product is wire mesh wheels,
these wheels are unsafe because the rungs or mesh can hurt your hamsters feet and cause bumble foot.
Instead use a plastic wheel.
Trixi wheels and silent spinners work well, but make shure they are the right size.
The next product is cotton or fluff nesting.
This is unsafe because the strands can get caught on your hamsters limbs also if your hamster accidentally swallows some it could get stuck.
Instead you can use toilet paper and tear it up, it is budget friendly and safe.
Another unsafe product is hamster balls.
This topic is quite controversial but I do not like them because it is quite stressful to the hamster and they could fall down Stairs, if you have any other pets and a dog or cat just touches the ball that’s quite frightening to the hamster, so in the end the cons outweigh the pros so you really shouldn’t use them.
Instead put a blanket or towel down in a dry bathtub andlet your hamster play in there.
You also should stay away from wet tail drops
wet tail is very serious and if you hamster has it they have to go to a vet because all wet tail. drops do is hide the symptoms not the ilness itself
so here are my 4 hamster products to not use. Of course there is more but here a few.
