About this deal

You can choose whether to hang it from your furry buddy’s cage or leave it freestanding with its handy wire stand and its non-rung plastic surface prevents animals from getting caught. It’s a scientific fact that hamsters love to run, and so an exercise wheel is a pretty crucial piece of equipment when it comes to kitting out your little pet’s cage.

Diameter 30 cm Getzoo premium cork wheel (diameter 28.4 cm

Smaller dwarf and roborovski breed hamsters don’t require a huge wheel, and something between 16 cm and 18 cm should suffice! Be sure to check whether it’s possible for the wheel to be fitted to the cage or whether it must remain on its stand.

Wooden wheels are also available and usually the quietest, however, they require varnishing to prevent stains and don’t last as long. Fitting a fun exercise wheel to your hamster, gerbil or rat's cage provides your pet with a great outlet for all that energy! This unique and innovative design is healthier on hamster’s spines as it creates a more natural running motion rather than sprinting upwards in a normal wheel.

Its high-quality running surface also provides a comfy and sturdy platform for your hamster to exercise, helping them remain fit and healthy. Due to hamsters living in a cage and being given free food by you, there’s a very real chance they could become obese without a wheel! If you haven’t heard of flying saucers for hamsters, they are a form of wheel which is more like a slanted running disc, which when used by your hamster gives the appearance of a UFO in flight! And if that wasn’t enough, it’s also the only hamster wheel to feature an eye-popping optical illusion design, meaning it’s not just your little furball who’s going to be getting entertained! Wheels these days often have features like a closed-back wall which prevents a hamster from slipping out of the side of the spinner and gaining an injury.But with so many materials, sizes and designs to choose from, picking the right wheel for your little furball is not a simple task. It’s larger size means it stops the pressure that can occur on a hamster’s spine when running upwards in a more cramped wheel and its slick spinning makes for a less rackety plastic orbit. Remember that a larger hamster would require a bigger flying saucer, which could take up a lot of room in their cage. Anything without a solid surface runs the risk of tails, or paws slipping through the gaps and suffering serious injury.

The very popular Syrian hamster is the largest in the world and can grow up to an alarming 6 or 7 inches in length. However, unlike super-quiet wooden models, the Silent Spinner is still made of durable and lightweight plastic!

This would not be comfortable for larger breeds such as Syrians though, and if your hamster is a portly species you’re best off purchasing a wheel of 20 cm or more.
