Exercise ball

Post  crazyrabbitlady on March 4th 2008, 1:50 pm

I read on a website that hedgehogs can use the giant exercise balls that are made for rats and chinchillas. Not sure if I trust the source so thought I'd check......

i think a few ppl are or have used em on here?

personally never have i just let em out on the floor as there is nowhere for them to get lost or escape into, then have a quick mop up when there back in there cages
id be concerned they get covered in crap in a ball

i use one but like rich says they do mess in them so u constantly have to clean it. Just as much hassle watching them run loose around the room.

Hi

I have one and snowball will go into it - as soon as we shut the front flap he is desperately looking
round for the way out - won't use it and I have tried to persevere and have now given up - he is just
not interested - prefers to run up and down people sitting on the couch!!!

big smile

My son's hamster used to have one, he would go all over the house in it. Trouble was he would appear from nowhere and would take you by surprise, almost tripping you up. He also liked to chase you in it and was really fast, he did crash into walls quite a lot though lol!

i bought one especailly for my little boy, put him i it once and before the lid was on he was clearly terrified nad scrabblig to get out. i didnt want to stress him so i left it. each hamster has their own and yep they poo all over it- which falls on them and the wee still comes out of the ball all over the floor! rol on his play pens arriving so he can have some freedom at last! big smile
