How do i stop my hamster from making a mess?

Question

my hamster keeps knocking the cage liner out the cage and making a big mess, is there any way that i could get him to stop or to put something around the cage so that things dont go flying out of it?

Answer 1

You could just tape strips of paper to the side so the bedding won't fall off but he might chew it off. There isn't really any way to make him stop doing it other than putting less bedding which I don't recommend because the more bedding the better. I would either put the cage in a box or assuming you have a wire cage, attach pieces of paper/cardboard to the outside of the cage. My hamster does the same thing, I just vacuum a lot.

Answer 2

gt a fish tank there better and no mess

Answer 3

My gerbils did the same thing so i put the cage in a cardboard box to catch the stuff that they threw out. If you do that then make sure the box does not go up to high because you don't want to entirely close the cage inside of it. just get a box that goes up to the level of the floor of the cage.
