Hamster Cage Setup: Junkrat’s Hamsterdam and Hamster Bin Playground

I’m not yet ready to let go of Junkrat’s first cage so I connected a Decobox 100-liter bin to it so he can get more floor space. 

I bought the bin on a discounted price of PHP 500. I wish it’s white, but bins with this size are mostly made from recycled plastic causing them to be black.

So here’s how I set up the Hamsterdam. The bottom floor is a perfect place to put some blue DIY paper bedding. It’s like a Recreation Area with the slide and the cafe.

  • Hamster Playing House with Slide (PHP 220) from Shopee seller petislandph
  • Hamster Cafe (PHP 147) from Lazada seller AZ Online / AZ Pet Supply

Hamster Playroom
The second floor is the Lounge Area. There’s a sofa, a rug or a carpet (cooling mat), and chew toys.

  • JAY Sweet Bamboo Chew Sticks 50g / 3 pieces (PHP 45) from Facebook Seller AZi Pet Supply for Rodents
  • Hamster Cooling Mat (PHP 185) from Shopee seller petislandph
  • Marsa Natural Loofah, fruit flavored, 6pcs (PHP 80) from ilovemypets.ph
  • Mineral Stone (less than PHP 100) from Bio Research

Hamster Mansion Setup
Upon placing the walls, I added a swing and took out the food dish.

  • JAY Hamster Swing Wood (PHP 180) from Facebook seller AZi Pet Supply for Rodents

The third floor is Junkrat’s bedroom.

  • Rainbow Coin Bank, ceramic, from National Bookstore
  • Food Dish (included in plastic cage as package)

I added a connecting bin so he can have more SPACE! 🙂 

  • Carno 25cm wheel (PHP 700) from ilovemypets.ph
  • Habitrail Long Tube in Yellow (less than PHP 100) from Bio Research
  • Cheese House from Furry Tails
  • Spaceship Add-on from Furry Tails
  • Carno Hamster Gym (PHP 220) from ilovemypets.ph
  • Plastic tubes from ilovemypets.ph, Furry Tails
  • Green Tower Hideout (PHP 65) from Furry Tails
  • Hamster Playing Stair Toy (PHP 100) from Shopee seller petislandph

I hope Junkrat likes his home. 🙂 I’m still trying my best to practice hamster keeping. Since IKEA isn’t here in the country yet, this will do for now. I’m eyeing the IKEA Detolf as his next home.
