Best syrian hamster cage?!? I am really leaning toward the idea of a aquarium with a tank topper. There is lots of room for toys, and burrowing around. Its safe, wont break, and it's easy to clean. Plus, with the proper equipment, it can have good ventilation. Before I decide to spend any money on this, I want your opinion on the best cage for a syrian hamster. I tend to shy away from tubes, especially for syrians. Tubes are hard to clean, have poor ventilation, which can cause respitory problems. If I was getting a dwarf hamster, I might get a cage with tubes, but im getting a syrian, so tubes are out of the question. Also, hamsters might feel the need to bite on the cage bars, even if I provide chew toys. If that happens, my mom will make me return them. So what do you think? Direct links will be appreciated. (I live in ONT. Canada) Aquarium with tank topper: http://www.critter-cages.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13&products_id=459&zenid=1c72c279681e4741978de4cb39bbaf82 It seems decent, right?

Is it safe to use items from an older hamster cage in my new one? I had two hamsters about 5 years ago, that both died in the same cage (at different times). I put the cage away in the garage, and it got all rust and old, so when I decided to get a new hamster the other day I decided to get a new cage.

Why are there little flies around my hamster cage? I have little flies the size of a pin head flying around my hamster cage. I have a gerbil and another hamster, but the flies aren't at their cages, only the one hamster. I cleaned all the cages on Saturday, like I always do. I noticed yesterday morning flies at the one cage. I cleaned the cage right away and gave the hamster a bath. I put fly paper above the cage. When I came home from work last night, the fly paper caught most of them but there were still a few flies left. I've had the hamster for over 2 years and nothing like this has happened before. What should I do? Are they going to harm my hamster? I don't think the hamster even notices them, but I feel so bad for my hamster! I cleaned the cage and gave the hamster a bath. Did you read everything I said above?I clean all 3 cages once a week on Saturday. The flies are only at the one cage. I don't want to keep cleaning the cage every day because the hamster doesn't like it.
How to clean hamster cage after Wet Tail? Well I had a new little hamster (RIP Mr. Pudding) die of wet tail. We want to get another hamster soon- but I am scared to use the same cage. How do I really know it is clean enough not ot infect the new hammie? Thanks!
How do I go about building a homemade hamster cage with a tiny budget? Right now, my hamster has a cage which is big, but I think she would like a little more room to run around in, and I'm in need of a weekend project! I'm only 13, but my dad can cut plywood and stuff. I only have a budget of about $20, so it needs to be something that's not that expensive. It needs to be cleanable, rather large (I'm thinking a 3 foot by 3 foot cage) and something that won't fall apart. We don't have any wire, but if you know of somewhere I could get ahold of some wire for my cage for cheap, that would be great. It also needs to be somewhat sturdy, so it can hold a wheel and possibly a food/water accessory. And make sure the instructions are easy to follow, I'm not the brightest egg in the dozen. Thanks! It also needs to be pretty safe so that she won't escape, we might keep her in the basement with that large of a cage, and there's rat poison in our basement. We also have a dog who would love to have a little snack (GULP!)
