This fun, unique ball is made of durable, transparent plastic and allows your hamster, rat, chinchilla, or other small pet to explore the great big world outside his habitat while staying safe and secure in his own protective bubble. In addition to great exercise for him, it’s also great entertainment for you as he bounces and tumbles around the house! Ample openings on all sides provide plenty of ventilation to keep him comfortable, and it can even be used to transport him outside your home or as a holding area while you clean his cage.

I bought 2 of these for my African Pygmy Squirrels- they are the perfect size and allow my critters to explore without me getting worried that they will get lost or fear of them being a snack of my mini schnauzers.
Super cute little ball for our tiny baby hampster, however the pieces that connect the two halves together broke off when we put it together.
Plastic is super cheap and brakes and your furry friends is out lose.
Please don’t purchase this for your chinchilla. It can overheat and die very quickly from heat exhaustion.
My fat little hamster is so uncomfortable it this tight poorly made ball that I do not even bother trying to use the other two I bought for our rats. Price, is NOT right nor is description
i have never bought this item before. But from what I know its bad. The holes for breathing don’t give enough air. Your pets toes can get stuck in the toes and break them. They can bump into things giving them trauma. And most of all its not a good product. hamsters are not toys. They need 6 inches of bedding. A cage minimum is 450 by 450. Not a critter trail. Please research before buying a hamster. Don’t use this item unless its a extra hideout in there environment. Btw the photo isn’t mine*
Ball has a poor design. When you put it together one side goes in and the other pops out.
Please do not use exercise balls, there are so many dangers with them like lack of ventilation and risk of hamster toes getting caught in the slits and getting broken. And it doesn’t provide your hamster any enrichment, it clouds their vision, they can’t smell, they can’t use their whiskers, and they can’t feel things on the ground. Play pens filled with toys and sometimes healthy treats for the hamster to find are so much more enriching.
Do your research on balls like this. They’re not good for pets, please just look on any reputable vet site out there and you’ll see why these aren’t recommended. The fact that chewy even sells these is horrible. Chewy is supposed to be a good source of products for all different animals, so why are they selling something that is known to be not recommended by vets?
Good product. Works like it's supposed to. Happy with the product.
