Trixie Natural Living Play and Burrow Tower for Small Pets 25×24×20cm

Lovely idea to give hamster the natural digging place. I love watching the little guy have fun and he loves it! It is pretty big though so don’t think your normal hamster cage would be the best place for it. Our little guy is lucky to have large space so perfect for us.

my rats absolutely love this, four of them will squeeze in and sleep snuggled together and they love to dig into whatever I fill it with (mainly shredded paper) the can squeeze out of the back and even though they have nibbled on the wood it is highly durable after a year of having it in the cage.The wooden bit from the bottom that slides out did warp a little due to it getting wet from when the rats urinate in there on the odd occasion but it is still going strong.Absolutely love it and enjoy watching them play.

Bought this product for my roborovski dwarf hamster to keep him busy. It was much larger than expected and came ready assembled. The provided ladder was a bit too large for my hamster (better suited for a Syrian hamster) but I used bridges and he can easily get up now. The hamster loves to burrow in it and has now made his bed in the top!

This thing is hazardous. The glue holding it together is visible at several points, making it easy for your pet to chew on. The wood is of poor quality and severely splintered. I tried sanding the wood to remove the splinters and discovered that it's painted. I don't know whether the paint is toxic to small animals or not, but judging from the quality of the rest of the product, I doubt the manufacturers gave much thought to what paint they used. I should also note that during the sanding process I found some mold underneath the paint.Look elsewhere. This is overpriced garbage.

Check the product carefully, a sharp end of a nail was exposed in the inside top of mine!The marketing of this product does not adhere to proper hamster care. To meet their needs hamsters should have 6" of substrate to dig in across most if not the whole of their enclosure, and should have at least 450 sq in floor space. There are loads of ideas for cheap "bin cages" and the IKEA Detolf is a favourite mod too. Sawdust/shavings are not recommended for any hamsters as they are sensitive to the smell, can have allergic reactions, and the dust from this substrate is harmful.I modified this into a shallow sand bath (shallow being very important to avoid suffocation with heavy materials), to keep the sand clean and watch my hammy enjoy it. For this, it has been great. For its intended use, what is actually needed is a more suitable enclosure for the hamster.
