  1. Hamsters like it neutral, same as us. However rodents are more tolerant of the cold then hot. Putting shredded paper towel or toilet tissue will keep them warm. I'd doubt you have to, but if you feel your hamster is too cold you can put warm water in a water bottle and wrap it up in a cloth and put it next to the sleeping area he/she will be fine.

    her spelling is fine,

    jeez




  2. The optimal temperature for hamsters is 65 - 70° F.  If the temperature drops below 55° F, hamsters may gather food and enter a deep sleep.  They are permissive hibernators;  they do not lay down fat prior to sleeping and are readily roused if the temperature increases to their preferred range.  


  3. first of all you need to spell better and second of all you need to put bedding anyway its like a bed for us except its the stuff that they waste on and sleep on so really it doesn't matter if your room is hot or cold just put bedding and take care of it, if you aren't willing to take care of it then don't even bother getting one...

  4. well, hamster don't like it cold or hot. They like room temperature so in the winter you could put a little bit more bedding .

    I hope this helps!
