Pets At Home Habitat 4 Deep Base Hamster, Mouse & Gerbil Cage

Our Habitat 4 hamster, mouse and gerbil cage has been created with the welfare of pets at heart. It has been designed to be big enough to add a food bowl, an appropriately sized wheel for exercise, and playthings for enrichment. As with any small animal, we recommend you buy the largest cage possible to give your small animal the opportunity to dig, burrow and exercise daily, so our Habitat cages are available in a range of larger sizes at great value.Our Habitat 4 hamster, mouse and gerbil cage comes complete with a water bottle and an easy to install platform with ladder (to provide your pet with additional space to play, climb and exercise). The deep base enables natural burrowing behaviours, helping to make your pet feel right at home. Add a deep layer of bedding (such as dust-free wood shavings or paper-based bedding) and this will provide endless fun (avoid using sawdust as this can make some pets ill)Hamsters, mice and gerbils lead active lives and as pets, need plenty of stimulation. Under-stimulated pets may show behaviours such as cage chewing, or over-using some toys such as wheels. To provide your pet with an enriching and stimulating environment, we recommend adding toys and tunnels to create your pet’s very own playground adventure.Your pet will also usually benefit from regular exercise in a safe and secure area outside of their cage. Some owners provide a secure playpen or an exercise ball for their pet to explore safely in, especially of an evening when they’re more active and can be supervised accordingly.
