You should get a new cage because when they bite the cages they try to get out. Mine got out. Get a glass cage instead. Hope this helps.

What is the correct and safest method of picking up a hamster?

There are several methods for picking up a hamster. The two safest methods are: 1) Lower a container into the cage and let the hamster climb into it. This method is safe and keeps the hamster from biting your fingers. 2) Cup your hands together and slide them under the hamster to lift it out of the cage. Or slide one hand under the hamster and cup your other hand over the top of the hamster.
