Hamsters

Habitrail enthusiasts

Disclaimer and Information: I have one thing to say - I am proud to be a Habitrail owner, but note that I am in no way affiliated with Rolf C. Hagen Corp (nor Crittertrail, nor S.A.M. products, nor Rotastack). Everything you read on this page is my own opinion and through observation of my hamsters. The pictures were either taken off the Habitrail, S.A.M., Crittertrail, and Petplanet-UK website links provided below. These pictures are, of course, copyright of their respective owners.

Please check out the Official Habitrail site for more details on pricing and further details.

Another site has been brought to my attention: the makers of S.A.M. products (Penn-plax) also have a web-site detailing their products. It may be slightly more expensive than Habitrail but worth a check (see picture at left below).

You can check out the Crittertrails from Super Pet (thanks Bella for the link) (see picture at right below).

And, finally, I found a cool Rotastack page from PetPlanet-UK (see picture below the first two).

 

A Tale of Two Cities

Oh no! I am addicted to creating a beautiful home for my hamsters. This is due to the wonderful mix-and-match hamster homes/tubes produced by Habitrail. I have quite a substantial collection of Habitrail product and it really is great fun arranging the hamster's home and seeing them getting used to their new environment. 

Below are pictures of two Habitrail cities featuring almost every type of home and accessory in the Habitrail range. The first picture shows the traditional Habitrail range connected to a green Habitrail Safari Home. The second picture boasts the latest range of "space" products from Habitrail.

Habitrail Products Review

I will review what I have bought so far. If an item does not contain a rating, it is only because I do not own them (yet!). The best rating is 5  for any of the review categories - Hamster satisfaction, Maintainability, Owner satisfaction.  

I do try to write objectively and fairly. But, if you feel otherwise and would like to voice your opinion, send me an and I will add your comments to the web-site. This will help future hamster rearing enthusiasts who are deciding on the type of cage/accessory to buy.

Connectors and Tubes

Here is the low down on Connectors and tubes:

I have tried interconnecting my Habitrail tubes with S.A.M. and Super Pet tubes. Well, for S.A.M., just remove the connectors and use the Habitrail connectors. Whereas for Super Pet tubes, you can't use the Habitrail connectors and will be forced to use the Super Pet connectors to join them together.
