What enclosure is best for a hamster?

The best enclosure for a hamster is one with lots of room to roam and climb. For a Syrian hamster or a pair of dwarf hamsters, a cage with a footprint of 24 x 12 inches and at least 12 inches tall would be the minimum size, but the bigger, the better. A cage with a deep plastic base and wire sides would be ideal in terms of digging and climbing comfort, plus it'll be well-ventilated and relatively easy to clean. You may want to consider a multi-level cage for your hamster to provide even more room for roaming and climbing.

What do I need inside my hamster enclosure?

You need essentials for feeding, drinking and elimination inside your hamster enclosure as well as toys and activities for exercise and enrichment. All hamster enclosures should have a food bowl, a water bottle, a small animal bed, fresh hamster bedding, a hamster hideout and an exercise wheel. Chewable items and hamster toys are also essential for the well-being of your hamster. Some people recommend putting a sand bathing box in the hamster enclosure, as well.

Can you keep 2 hamsters in the same enclosure?

You can keep two hamsters in the same enclosure if they're dwarf hamsters, but larger breeds don't take to cohabitating well and can become very stressed if you house them together. If you are keeping dwarf hamsters, be sure they have lots of space, individual feeding and water stations and separate nest boxes or hamster hideouts and beds for them to use. It's also a good idea to keep only hamsters of the same sex in one enclosure to reduce procreation and territorial behavior.
