New Hamster!

Hello :)
Today, I bought a black syrian hamster and its great! it was a little vicious earlier and 'hissed' at me, but after a few hours its really tame! I called it 'Sozard' or 'Sozzard' as in sorry 'ard. At first, wellard as in well hard came into mind but it wasnt very original :P

There is one problem. It keeps climbing up the water bottle and trying to get out. Its in a glass tank. I put a book on top of it to stop it but thats not a permanant option, can anyone help? +Rep for good suggestions :)

Get a propper cage. It will run out of air in a glass tank?

As Stutoman said, like those bird cages.

The glass tank does have air lol dw its not getting suffocated :)
The people at the pet shop said it would be fine in a glass tank and I prefer it because bedding, woodchippings etc doesn't come out the bars onto the floor.

lol i have a fat hamster

called hamlet

Hamsters are so cool tho - mine used to bite but once it gets used to you they jsut dont


oh and yeh make sure you got a normal cage not a fish tank lol

Well I would get the bird cage like one.

When I get money I will get the bird cage type cage, but I had a spare glass tank which I will use for now.

Yeah ok, but I mainly see the bird-cage type ones.

Get a lid with ventilation obviously...

He already has one if you read the post.
