About this tool
Pick the hamster type and the tool gives a minimum floor area and an example footprint. These are minimums for welfare guides, not ideals, and larger, well-enriched cages are better.
Frequently asked questions
Is this veterinary advice?
No. It is a general welfare guide. Individual needs vary, and enrichment matters as well as size.
Does a wheel count as floor space?
No. A wheel is essential enrichment, but it does not replace open floor for running and burrowing.
