Savic Bristol Hamster Cage


great cage
we threw our rotastak in the bin and got this fab cage. Is a really good size, looks great in my daughter's bedroom, and nibbles seems really happy too!
My syrian loves it!
Bought this cage after looking round for ages for one for my new syrian. Wanted a cage that was a decent size but not overly priced...and looked good! This one was the one I settled on. It is quite large compared to a lot of cages that are sold claiming to be big enough for hamsters (which clearly aren't, such as the rotastak ones).

It's easy to put together, the second level sits on the base, then add the food bowl, water-bottle, hut, ramp and the wheel, then pop the wire top on. I changed the wheel and bought a flying saucer wheel as the one provided is too small for syrians once they are older than a few weeks. The clips that hold the top on are a little stiff but I think that just gives more security that they aren't about to unclip accidentally. I also bought some wooden toys that hang from the top, and put tubes on the base so he can run around in them aswell.

It's easy to clean, as it's all plastic it can be washed and then dryed off with no hassle...
Two storey home
Bought this for our school hamster. He needs the space but a big cage would be too big to carry so I opted for one which gave him two levels. It's not perfect for a Syrian hamster. They really do need a Lot of space, but it's not bad. He is certainly happier. My only criticism would be the door. It's fab, cos its twice the size as usual giving you plenty of room to retrieve him from the cage. The trouble is, it opens upwards and because of the curvature of the top of the cage, can fall shut again VERY easily! This could trap your hand or even worse fall on the hamster as you remove him from th cage, so be warned.
