Climbing toy for hamster?

Question

I just switched my hamster from a habitrail, bar type cage to a glass aquarium cage. He seems to miss climbing the bars. Any ideas for a homeade climbing toy, or even one from the pet store?

The good old t.p. rolls are good! cut the ends so you can fold them down to make a container and fill it with treats or food and cut the other end to fold it down too, use masking tape to secure the ends, the hammy will have a blast chewing through it to get the food out! You can also make a climber out of sisal twine(look in wal-mart where they sell screws and stuff it's cheep too) Your kids can braid it to make a bridge and tie pieces of twine off the edges for the hammy to climb, plus it's safe for them to chew. If you get the thinner sisal twine you can get the kids to tie on pieces of safe wood for the hammy to chew. Your kids can make a popsical stick house for the hammy too, just make sure they use the non-toxic white glue! You can even get a bunch of easy to find hamster safe stuff(tp rolls, popsical sticks, wood pieces, twine, string ect) around your home and let the kids go at it, I'm sure they can come up with something!

Oh I forgot what about a paper mashe house? Just mix flour and water to make a paste and rip up news paper. They can make a tunnel over a jar and take it off when it'd d
