How much care for a hamster?

It intends to buy a hamster but feel overwhelmed because you do not know exactly how much will it cost? Here is an expanded list of products hamster needs and their average costs.

Hamster Shopping List:-Cage: $ 10 – $ 40 The price varies depending on the type of cage you want: wired, aquarium or tank and the size of the hamster. If you are buying a Syrian hamster, be careful what you buy the cage because you can sometimes get stuck in criteria based on trail and Sam / penplax tubes.

-Bedding: $ 2 – $ 10 has several purposes: the lines of the floor absorb odors, place toilet and allows your hamster to hide in it.You have to choose between a variety of bedding: wood pulp fiber, recycled paper, aspen shavings, Kaytee Soft Sorbent, Eco-Straw Pellets and the list goes on. for more detail: pet shops, www.activities-little-fingers.com.At you can find including bedding smelling of apples or strawberries.

beds-Book: This is optional and the price is very low. I use it because my hamsters love it. All you have to do is put small pieces of toilet paper (1-3 squares) in a cage and they take it and use it as a blanket. Sometimes they use to decorate your room (home).

Food dish: $ 2 – $ 9 is better if the meal is not made of wood or plastic, and small hamsters chew until nothing remains. I bought mine ceramic bowl lovers. This is a better option because it is a kind of heavy and not be moved or spill it.If you want to reduce some costs, you can use some small ceramic bowl you have in your kitchen.

Bottle of water: $ 2 – $ 5 is a must have for your hamster. The bottle is the best choice because of their hamster can not spill and make a mess in the cage.You to be careful when you put this in the hamster cage: it must be high enough that you can not chew the piece of plastic.

Hamster-Mix: $ 2.5-$ 5 This is the food that you should give your hamster on a regular basis. Be very careful when buying hamster / de mixture of rabbit and gerbil mix, because it is toxic to your hamster bit. detials to visit: "www.workplace-warriors.com.The protein and calories that the needs hamster should consist of fresh fruits and vegetables according to your hamster needs.

toys-Hamster: $ 1.2-$ 30 This is the part I like. First Instead, your hamster needs a wheel ($ 3 – $ 5) so you can exercise.The hamster ball, all kinds of tunnels and chew toys can be purchased later. Instead of buying tunnels or other things that you can not afford the top you can use a trick: Do not throw away your rolls of toilet paper. Use them to entertain your hamster! You can even make some holes in it to be more fun for your hamster.

Hamster-Book $ 1.99-$ 20 The books are very informative and helpful especially if you are on your first hamster. There are books written for 9-12 years, all, so more or less have their learning book on hamsters.

Executives tip: I recommend you use a small cup of sand. The hamster likes to have small sand baths and mine uses it as a dip too. I can empty and wash every morning. My first hamster use it as a bathtub of sand and then as a toilet.

After you have all this, the monthly cost are:

-Bedding: I use a large package of sheets (I can change the bedding of the cage at least twice a week) – I use large packets and generally are sufficient for one month: $ 10 per package of food: one or packages – $ 5 – $ 10
