How to walk your hamster? Perhaps every mistress of this animal thought about it. Well, how to walk the animal correctly and without injuries, you will learn in this article.
It is necessary
In order to walk your hamster, you do not need a lot of effort and materials. Just a lot of care and desire is enough
Instructions
Step 1
To begin with, the question is displayed: "IS IT POSSIBLE to walk the hamster?" Yes. But you need to know the precautions. First you need to know that the hamster has grown and got used to "field conditions". Therefore, for him, the most optimal option for a walk would be a wide space. That is, you can walk the animal at home. Never walk your hamster on the street! He can run away, while you will not notice that he is not even close. If you chose a walk at home, check if you have small holes in your house, if there are, fix them. You also need to remove all sharp and tall objects. The hamster can cut itself and fall, being injured. Be sure to keep an eye on where your animal is running. Do not take your eyes off him, or he will get lost.
Step 2
Another variant of the walk is possible with a special leash for hamsters. Do not use leashes for the Dzungarian breed, as you simply will not put a leash on it - the "Dzungarik" hamster is too small.
After you put the leash on the hamster, check to see if the little finger fits between them. If the hamster is cramped in the leash - he will climb and squeak, if the leash is tightened weakly - the animal will simply run away. Therefore, make sure that he is comfortable.
Step 3
Special so-called "walking balls" are also sold. This is a balloon with small holes for air. The meaning of the application is "open the ball - let the hamster in - close the ball - and let it roll." In fact, these balls were made for rats, not hamsters. A homa in such a ball will feel awkward, clambering against the walls of the ball with his paws to get out. Opinions about such a ball differ - some believe that this is the most convenient option for walking with the animal, others think that this is just a mockery of the animals. I believe that a hamster will really be uncomfortable and uncomfortable in such a ball, but it can only be used as a last resort - if you do not have time to walk with the hamster, etc.
