Answer 7

you should clean the entire cage at least once a week. I change some of the bedding whenever it starts getting really dirty or wet. It depends on your hamster, some days you hamster will be messy, and you will need to change some bedding sooner. But I always clean the entire cage at least once a week. Be sure to never use any cleaning products, as any product could get left behind and cause you hammy to die :[

best of luck :]

Answer 8

The entire cage should be cleaned out whith soap and hot water once a week. All of the bedding should be thrown out and replaced. Change the water every day. Make sure you rinse ALL of the soap off the cage. If your hamster goes to the bathroom in one spot and you start to notice a smell. then try to wash just that area out. If you change their bedding to often, the hamster can get stressed.

Answer 9

change it about every 4-5 days
