Syrian hamsters will need bedding on the cage floor. They need a bowl to put their food in, a water bottle, and a wheel to run in. This is the bare minimum.

(never take out one ingredient from a mix because they won’t get all of the vitamins and nutrients they need. Instead, find a food without that ingredient in to start with)

they also need a water bottle/water bowl. (I have a water bottle, but personally I reccomend a bowl as it can be cleaned easily and with a bottle, you tend not to clean it as much because there is a lot of water in there and we only clean it when

the water runs out. Make sure you clean it EVERY DAY! This is probably the most important part: the cage. The ABSOLUTE MINIMUM continous floor space is 75cm x 40cm x 40cm! I recommend the IKEA DETOLF but you will need a but of DIY handiwork for the lid.

There are many tutorials online for this, but i wasn’t allowed to put one here. If you are looking for advice, I recommend Victoria Raechel and Erin animals. I personally think there are the most reliable.

You will also need lots of toys and treats such as Berry nibblots…… etc. You can find many toys on amazon (make sure they are above 4 stars) . I personally recommend Trixie Heimtierbedarf Gmbh & Co. Kg (otherwise known as Trixie)

30.4cm for syrians. I can’t stress this enough, make sure you buy a big enough cage, not just a small one with ‘extensions’.
