Tina and Fina gets a balcony!

After a long while I decided to add an extension to the little place that Fina and Tina calls home. It is designed for hamster bathing I suppose, but Tina and Fina likes to sleep on the soft bathing sands, so I decided to make it into a little home. Think of it as a balcony =)

A new place for the hammies to hang out and sleep in

Fina is the first to notice the new joint (pardon the pun =) and seems to like it a lot.

She is joined by Tina and they seemed to want to return to the new area, even after the wheels (which they never seem to tire of).

Now Tina and Fina sits in their newfound balcony and enjoys the new place. I’m a bit worred that there is not much of ventilation however. Maybe I will call my friend who has access to a workshop for a favor.

The hammies get cosy

Special – Fina likes to sleep with her head on a ledge – usually the opening of the bathing house which was previously their bedhouse. She now has a new place to hang her head and doze into hamster bliss!

I like the new additions to the family. My parents seemed wary of them at first, but I did my part by cleaning the cage now and then, and as a result they started to warm to them. This new extension now allows them to view the hamsters as close as possible, so hopefully it will warm their hearts further =)

I am considering some more extensions to the original cage, but am deciding if I should go for a new cage instead. The models vary in size and levels, and get more and more fancy the more I shop. Is it better to get a new cage or to add new extensions to the original place?
