The Old Hamster Wheel is Out! Check out These Fun Toys for Hamsters and Gerbils
Last week, my mother gave my son Eric a hamster for his 6th birthday. I kind of looked at the thing with disgust, I must say. But as the days went by, that furry little thing won my heart. Now, it is no longer a “thing” for me; now it has a name: Hanky.
Hanky is quite a pal. He gets pretty scared when I vacuum my son’s room. I take him out -in his cage, of course- to the yard. I guess he must enjoy the sun.
I still owed Eric his birthday present. So, I asked that dreaded question “What do you want for your birthday?” I secretly feared: a Wii, an iPod. What do you want, for Pete’s sake! Speak now or forever hold your peace. I was flabbergasted at his response: a toy for good old Hanky.
That made perfect sense. After all, as the old saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”. Well, in this case Hanky. So, I set to getting him a toy. I thought a wheel was the most you could get, when it came to toys for hamsters. Well, I was wrong.
I checked out PetGadgets, and I was amazed to find the Super Pet CritterTrail Puzzle Playground. Yeah, the real deal. First of all, it is completely made of plastic, so it is very easy to wash. And it looks like real fun! Tunnels, and ramps for Hanky to climb, mazes, you name it. You get to design your toy, since the customer assembles the parts together in the shapes he likes the most. Sweet! Oh, and really inexpensive.
You wouldn’t believe what a cute object the FerreTrail Bubble Play Kit is. It consists basically of two bubble wave tubes, a number of connectors, an elbow, a tee, and a round around ball. I could picture Hanky running around the ball like crazy. Sure, it sounds like fun. It is also made of plastic, and you can make your own design, since the pieces fit together perfectly. Very important piece of information for mommies: it’s odorless.
I almost died when I saw the Critter Cruiser. It is actually a racing wheel, with the shape of a car. It’s lovely. It looks like one of my son’s toy cars. If you adjust it properly, the Cruiser will move in three directions on any flat surface. I figured it was a nice way to fulfill two purposes: exercise Hanky -he has put on some weight since he came home-, and find a nice way for Eric to play with his hamster without hurting him.
Needless to say, I ended up buying all three things. That made us all three -Eric, Hanky, and myself- extremely happy. The perfect birthday present for a little guy with a furry pet.
