Anyone who has raised a hamster knows that a basic hamster cage must be equipped with a water fountain, a food bowl and a running wheel. Even a small nest is not a necessity.

Why do hamsters need to be equipped with running wheels?

We understand that hamsters need to eat and drink, so why must they be equipped with running wheels? What about running wheels? Isn’t it possible to just give it a bigger cage?

The answer is of course no.

Running is the nature of hamsters. A hamster in the wild can run 10 kilometers a night. Even though it is small, if it runs with all its strength, it can run about 600 steps per minute - equivalent to 4 times that of a horse race. .

This kind of running not only allows it to avoid predators, but also prompts it to secrete endorphins, making the hamster excited.

So life lies in movement, and this sentence also applies to little hamsters.

Why should a hamster be equipped with a running wheel?

What will happen if the hamster is not equipped with a running wheel? First of all, many people think that a bigger cage is enough for it to move around. It is wrong to think this way. No matter how big the cage is, it cannot satisfy the amount of exercise of 10 kilometers a night. Therefore, a running wheel is a must-have when raising a hamster.

If the domestic hamster does not have a running wheel for it to play on, it will easily cause the hamster to suffer from a disease called "cage paralysis", which must be avoided! So for those of you who are missing this equipment, you know what to do.
