Most people talk about their hamster urinating on the wheel when they walk. The animal doesn't pee, it leaves an scent trail to find its way home (that's nature in its most primitive sense), they follow the scent back to their den when their cheeks are full of food. They can't stop him, although they don't need him in a cage. But they don't know. We use our eyes, they use their nose in the dark. However, if you don't like to pee, attach a black rubber band to it. Keep in mind that this will spread the smell all over the animal and make it stink, but that's up to you. If you don't find either of these attractive, don't buy the hamster or the exercise wheel. As for the noise, hey, it's a hamster wheel, they all make noise. I've had him for about a month now, my hamster is winter white and he was small when I bought him. And when he used the wheel, it was a faint sound that some would describe as "white noise," like a fan running. But he's grown up and now the wheel rattles when he walks, so the sound isn't as quiet as some would like. it's in a room away from your bedroom, you should be fine, but if it's in your bedroom, be careful. the thing jerks and rattles like a motor. Not the best sound for light sleepers. I had to slip some books under mine so she wouldn't work late. He has another bike he can use, but I can't hear him. Early at night is ok but when I sleep. I had too much time for that. OK. By the way, the paws of animals do NOT get caught in it and do not slip through the gap in the middle. Even if you can't see it, most hamsters will run against the back or in this case the front wall of the wheel to keep them from falling out, so you don't have to worry about their feet falling through the middle slot. . That means letting odors and feces out of the wheel and also letting in air, but if you use a rubber band it won't cut off the air, it has air out of the cage. More than enough for the little ones. So relax and enjoy the show.
