Habitrail OVO Dwarf Hamster Habitat, Blue/White

Got this for my daughters dwarf hamster. All I can say is WOW! Little Angel LOVES her new home and my daughter enjoys being able to see her every move. Amazing!

My little girl Pespi got her head stuck in the hole for the water bottle and I had to break the holder to free her little head.

I bought this cage because I have 6 cats. I know I what you’re thinking, 6 cats and one mouse.... asking for trouble. I got this mouse because someone left him at my work as a prank. I couldn’t just leave him but I definitely needed a cage that would protect him. This one is perfect! The cats watch him whenever he’s in his wheel. I come home and my cats are sleeping wrapped around the cage. The mouse and the cats put there nose on the little openings and the mouse licks them. It’s allowed both parties to be at a safe and welcoming distance. My only complaint is that one of the connectors broke and I had taped it together.

We had bought a prevue hamster cage from Chewy, and it had a gap between the base and the wire. Chewy was really great about returning it so we gave this one a try, and it is amazing. The size is perfect for a dwarf hamster. We had trouble finding a wheel our dwarf hamster could use well, and our little hamster jumped right in and out of this one, and it's an almost silent wheel for the nocturnal creature. He slowly explored and the tubes were just the right size for him to be able to climb up. The best part is there are three parts of the cage that open easily for my son to be able to get to his hamster to feed it or observe it. Everything comes with it--water, food dish, hidey We had bought a prevue hamster cage from Chewy, and it had a gap between the base and the wire.

Everything comes with it--water, food dish, hidey house, wheel. The water bottle is odd, but I could open it and the hamster found it and used it right away. Twist it to remove it, like the directions say. I like that part detaches to be a travel chamber while cleaning it (which won't be easy though... ). I used to have a kaytee-style tube cage when I was a kid, and this is a step up from that. If the hamster pees in one of the tubes, it doesn't drip on the furniture underneath the tubes. Putting it together took a bit, but nothing someone who has put together a set of legos can't handle. Once you figure out how the rings lock (turn one and look at the dual rings), it's the same thing over and over again. The kids watched the hamster explore for over an hour once I got it together. My son is already saving up for the mini hamster maze. … more

I tried a couple of cages from a big box pet store and they just didn't seem to be very good quality. I found this online and absolutely love it. We bought two of them and the hamsters the kids have love everything about their new home. Assembly is fairly straightforward and once assembly, quality seems great. All openings are easy to use and seem to lock solidly in place. I truly only have two small complaints. First, the cap on the water bottle can be a real pain to get off. You have to pop it off as it is not a screw on type lid. It's difficult for the kids so I end up changing the water daily just because they can't open the lid. Seems like that could be better designed. Second I tried a couple of cages from a big box pet store and they just didn't seem to be very good quality. I found this online and absolutely love it.

Seems like that could be better designed. Second, we actually removed the wheel and stairs set up. One of the hamsters was small and had difficulty getting up the stair to the food bowl. Also, to access the food you have to open the back of the cage. Again with kids, it was difficult to get to the back of the cage. So we replaced the wheel that came with it and put a small food bowl and igloo in for the hamsters. Very happy overall with the cage and habitat. Hamsters are happy, easy access to everything (now that we changed the stairs/wheel/food set up), and simple to clean. … more

When i first received the package our hamster wheel arrieved broken in two prices i called and complained they shipped a new one out that same day it took a week to get here but i am very happy! This is one of the best hamster cages on the market i really love the design and how different it is from traditional hamster cages definitely worth the price!!

This product is amazing while you are cleaning there more that 450 square inch home. My point is this product should not be intended as a hamsters 24/7 home it can be used as a carrier or temporary play space while cleaning out her/his cage!! Please don't buy as a home!

I upgraded my mouse's cage from a 10 gallon aquarium to this and she really enjoys it--she's a lot more active now and loves scrambling up and down the tubes. Putting it together isn't extremely difficult, but isn't quite the easiest, either...I looked up a youtube video that showed me step by step instructions of how to put it together, which made it a bit easier. That being said, I would recommend putting the wheel on before attaching the top of the big part of the cage. The only thing I dislike is where the food bowl is located (behind the wheel), as it's not easy to refill with just your hands. Otherwise both my mouse and I love this thing!

This is the ultimate hamster hotel-love it.already want to buy another one or two to make a super condo hotel-

Too small for a dwarf hamsters, let alone anything else. 450 square inches is required for any hamster. Do your research before buying.
