I have no idea, but I love the cage. You would probably have to give them a flooring right? I think its a great cage for the price and have zero complaints. Very roomy and I like that it is wide.

I suppose it would. But it does have a wire bottom with about an inch underneath for the tray, so if you were using bedding or shavings, it would have to sit on top of the wire unless you cut the bottom off like I did.

There are a few problem I see, they like to use the corner and there isn't really anything there to not let that go everywhere and they cant burrow into the bedding.The grate does NOT come out. I wouldn't suggest to use this cage for a hamster, there is probably a way to fix those two problems. They may also lift the door up, so put a safety pin to hold them down.

I wouldn't. The doors are too easy to open and they do not latch. My finches have figured it out and have opened them. Unless you would want to secure them, but I have also noticed that the corners have gaps that I am not able to close correctly. The birds do not bother with it, but I bet a hamster would find it right away and figure a way to get out. I have wire ties on these issues, which work well, but I'm not sure its the best answer for a hamster. Hopefully this helps.

I starter looking for imagen of your pet before giving you an answer, and I believe it will be perfect. Has a good height and length for several toys as he needs room to move around and exercise. I use the cage for finches an I love it.

We had a dwarf hamster in it and now a Syrain. We had a lot of attachment on it for climing and playing. Both did fine, although the dwarf had to have the tunnels flatter because he had a hard time climing initially. The wheel was fine for both. I had problems with the water bottles leaking eventually so bought another whole cage and hooked the two together using only one water bottle.

Hamsters are solitary animals. Dwarf hamsters (siblings or currently caged together) can live together but if they start fighting they will kill eachother. Males and females should never live together unless they are together for breeding. Syrians (also known as goldens, teddy bears etc) must live alone. This cage is not however large enough for a Syrian hamster (my girl is a "teddy bear"). I currently have 2 of these cages connected and will be adding more space shortly. but most importantly I do not find this cage suitable to house two hamsters at once (even 2 dwarfs). It simply isn't large enough. Don't get me wrong, I love the cage and have 2 of them as I stated above but for my hamster, she is simply too large for the space in just one cage, the wheel is also too small so I had to purchase a larger one. I wish I had known all of this prior to purchasing my first cage but I'm making it work and im simply adding more space as I can.

If you had a very hefty Syrian hamster, it might be a very roomy habitat. I think the gaps would be too big (approximately 1" apart), so I would not recommend it.

This is a very large cage. A hamster would be able to escape through the widely spaces bars. I'd look for something smaller with a tighter grid :)

Well, it is very good for my syrian hamsters .. I have orderd 9 cages of this kind .. because I have 9 hamsters and all of them are happy .. the only problem is I have to put them in a cold room.. otherwise all good ..

Probably so if it is pretty fat but if a hamster can collapse its body like a mouse, maybe not. It is a very large cage. It does well for our rabbit.

I wouldn't get this for a hamster. The bars are really far apart and flexible so they would slip right out. Its also really huge and hamsters like the small tight spaces of a reg hamster cage.

Yes it is. It is a big cage. Very roomy. Great for big hamsters. I love it.

Sorry--we ended up returning the cage, so I can't answer your question. (We realized that we couldn't keep our two hamsters together because they had started fighting, so we kept them in smaller separate cages.

Yes. It can be used for birds small to medium, large hamster, rats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and possibly one ferret. Since this cage has so many small doors you will need to get clips to prevent these pets from escaping. I also recommend to protect your pets feet that you use a material such as cotton, fleece or polyester on the ramps and shelves. Too switch it from a bird cage to rodent cage just simply put the grate underneath the plastic tray so you don't hurt their feet. It works for my birds, rats and guinea pig just fine.

The tubes on this cage are too small for a Syrian hamster. Habitrail has an OVO cage for the Syrian that is exactly like this one but the tubes are larger.

Absolutely not! This cage is too small for anything other than a Dwarf Hamster or small mice.

I had a dwarf hamster in this cage, but I'm sure a normal sized hamster could live in it too, you might just want to give it more space by attaching another cage to it.

I would sat yes, but is think the cage is too big for a mouse. Better for a rat. A hamster cage is best for a mouse

ok so i really dont like this cage as a stand alone cage cuz first its ventilation is poor slso hamsters need a minimum of 360 square inches of floorspace which to find is length x width and i would recoemnd 2 lofts connected with eaacdh other or try a bin but but the bin somewhere high up so ur cat cant get it

If you have a dwarf hampster the small sized silent spinner might fit. Our hamster needed a larger wheel, so we bought a second small cage that connected to put his wheel in. Sadly our hamster escaped because the latch on one of the exits did not work. The connecting cages are cute and look fun, but I highly recommend avoiding them. Best of luck, keep your furry friend safe.
