Happy Valentines day everyone. I have been busy setting up the Savic Plaza Hamster Cage. No new hamster yet after Sunny, but hopefully soon. I will let you know when a new Cosmic Hamster arrives. Also a sand bath will be added, probably under the wheel. I'm just waiting for a new tray to arrive. Thanks for watching.
i ABSOLUTELY LOVE the way you added things into this enclosure. you utilized every bit off space and it looks SO safe! most of the time, i see people out really small bridges up high with no safety. yours looks great 😁
Thanks, I always try to think of it from the hamsters perspective and safety. I also watch my hamsters when I put them back in their cages and just check everything is ok.
I love this format of videos,I’m planing to get a Slavic plaza for Christmas and I have been doing very good rearching on hamsters and I know they like to burrow so I was wondering where I could buy walls for this cage so my future hamster could burrow.
Hi, I wrote a reply to you but it seems to have disapeared, In case you didn't see it, I will write again. I am presuiming you meant the grass mats, I have a whole video about it ruclips.net/video/doZJJHCW1fs/видео.html There are links in the description of that video on where to buy the different type of mats from. Also, Pets@home normally have the savic plaza reduced to £55 i think it is, around black friday time. Not sure if they will do that this year due to covid and sales etc. Might be worth looking out for though if you are in the UK.
Thanks Grace, but it shot up rapidly yesterday afternoon, so not sure if some are fake or not, the count may drop down again rapidly. I was at about 181 I think. If they stay, @Grace playz Ukulele was my 200th -so thank you :)
@@littlepaws697 Thanks, me too, Just waiting to see, it happened to Cookie and his crew channel, kept going up and down rapidly. Just strange for me to get that many subscribers in one day - I hope they are real, but time will tell. If they stay, then I will get excited :) Either way, thank you for your support.x
Great idea for a future video. Thanks. I have this video you might be interested in ruclips.net/video/_LTkV9N14jw/видео.html where I try to recreate my most watched cage setup video on a budget, if you look at the description I talk about costings of the original cage set up video and there is a link to that video in the description too. Not sure if that makes any sense 🙃😁
#1 love your channel great video the cage looks great! Very busy exactly what I love to see in a hamster cage! Also I love the multi chamber house! ❤️💜💕🐹🐾 HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
Thanks so much Kelly's pet corner, means a lot to me as I find them the hardest to film and they take a lot of editing so they aren't boring :) Can yuo have too much bedding ;)
Where is your driftwood and bedding from? I’ve been looking for some driftwood on amazon but it doesn’t look the right size and the bedding I like to use is kaytee clean and cozy but I’m keen to try out others and I’ve been using carefresh lately but it’s very expensive to buy in big bags
Grass mats. Sometimes called hyacinth mats etc. I have a whole video on it, I might have put links in the description to what they are ruclips.net/video/doZJJHCW1fs/видео.htmlsi=QKg0rm5j4XXwsODe
I love this set up… I’m thinking of recreating this set up for my new hamster 🐹…. Thank you for the inspiration 🥰 I want to add a sand bath for my hamster, where could I put this?
Thank you. you could put it to the left hand side and put the bridge as a hide in the sand bath. Or maybe in front of the house somewhere? Just be careful the hamster can't burrow underneath it and it falls on top of them.
I never do a full clean, I only clean about 1/3 out from the end where they sleep and spread the rest around and top it up. I do this as and when needed, about 6 weeks to 2 months or longer if possible (I go by smell!) I Just spot clean in between. The longer you can leave it the better, less stressful on the hamster.
Awesome. I'm thinking probably Zooplus, but since covid and Brexit they sadly don't stock a lot of things. A good alternative is to check out hopes healthy treats
Hey what did you put on that one side to cover the bars? I wanna buy this cage but I'm looking into possible solutions for covering up the barring because I don't want the hamster to chew on them.
They are grass mats, you can get different types. I have links to a couple in the description on this video ruclips.net/video/doZJJHCW1fs/видео.htmlsi=9AoQACFQOJ0iuUGS
@@noqueq9003 I think it will depend on the hamster. I'm sure I had one chew some at the base at the back of the cage, and maybe one chewed a bit at the front where the door was and some never chewed any of it, but if they do chewp you can always replace with cardboard which costs nothing. You can also attach to the outside of the cage if you are worried about them chewing, but to be honest I just see it as giving them something to do and easily replaced if they chew them.
Love this set up got my savic plaza today so going to inch sone of your ideas hope you don't mind for my female Syrian how did you find the matting did it get chewed much and what size are the Trixie shelves ?
I don't mind at all, that is entirely why I share my videos. The Trixie shelves are the 28cm ones, you will need to saw the tiniest (and I mean tiniest) little bit off a corner for it to fit the cage. As for chewing the mats, it depends where you put it and what your hamster is like, it's just one of those things that you have to try and then wait to see what happens.
Thanks for your kind words. I use 2 types of grass mats in my cages, 1 is the Trixie natural grass hammock which you can get on zooplus and the other is rosewood boredom breakers chill n chew mat which I got off Amazon. Hope that helps.
This is such an amazing cage like I wish I was the hamster at this point! Also where'd you get ur hamster safe string from?? I really love the star and pinecone idea!
Ha ha Lisa. Yes, some of them have a nice life right, nice cosy bedding, lots of things to run through and nice treats to eat :) Sounds like a good life to me.
haha i love this video! my issue is that its always "just a little bit more bedding, just a little bit more....ok no thats not enough a bit more...christ that's too much how can i fit anything else in the cage!?!" XD XD
This cage is SO amazing! I love to see people giving their hamsters proper hamster care❤️🐹 new sub!
Thank you and welcome. I'm sure I could do so much better now as this video is a few years old now. ❤️🐹
@CosmicHamsters oh yeah 😅 I watched some of of your new videos and the cages are amazing!
When it comes to hamsters you can never have enough layers of substrate, they LOVE to burrow. Beautiful cage, lucky hamster 🐹
Thanks

Ooo great video! I bet star loved it!
It's not for Star :) But whoever it ends up being for I hope they will love it ;)
Oooh oops I'm so sorry 😂
@@AbbeysAnimals nothing to be sorry about. Star is in her old hammies retirement set up.. All on one level for the elderly :)
Oh okay!
Love it!!! I have a bin cage but my Syrian Archie likes to climb so I think I’m going to get this cage for him!!!
❤️❤️❤️
Brilliant, it is a very good sized cage. Hope Archie likes it. My friend has a dog called Archie :)
what are the grass mats on the left side your cage called + where’d you find them? 0:22 they look so great and i want to do the same thing! ☺️
Thanks, I have a whole video on it. Links are in the description ruclips.net/video/doZJJHCW1fs/видео.html

Your cages always looks so amazing! I don’t know how you do it but I’m so inspired to try to make my cage look as natural and amazing as yours! 💞
Aww thank you, that is so nice to hear.

@@littlestars7537 I got the wood from Zooplus, and I get the bedding from either Amazon UK or an Equestrian shop on line.

If you have a local equestrian shop near you, they may have it too. Save on postage.
What is the thing used that you put up against the cage to make it so you could bed it up more?
Grass mats. Sometimes called hyacinth mats etc. I have a whole video on it, I might have put links in the description to what they are ruclips.net/video/doZJJHCW1fs/видео.htmlsi=QKg0rm5j4XXwsODe
What did you use to cover the side to help have more substrate please
Grass mats, you can use cardboard too. I have a whole video on it.

Could you please tell me which size trixie shelf you bought to fit this cage? X

The mats make such a difference right? Gives that extra depth. Love this cage. It’s just like my first DIY...you remember it?
I do, you put so much research and work into that cage.

Hello stunning cage design for hamster, I was wondering where did you get the straw type slabs to put around the cage? :)

@@CosmicHamsters Thank you ever so much for your reply and giving the details on where to get them. Such a great idea :)
You are welcome 😀🐹
May I ask where is your shelves from etc please :)
They are trixie ones. If using in the savic plaza you will need to saw the tiniest bit off.
This is such an amazing cage like I wish I was the hamster at this point! Also where'd you get ur hamster safe string from?? I really love the star and pinecone idea!
Aww thank you so much. The jute string is from Wilkos. If you aren't in the UK you could try some sort of gardening shop.
