Review on 🌈 Kaytee Run-About Ball Mini Rainbow: A Colorful Exercise Toy for Small Pets by Christina Kharel

Hamster concussion?

This is not against Kaytee (I have all Kaytee's), but against hamster balls in general. I've only had my dwarf hummy walk the carpet a few times, and each time she fell into a comatose haze. I think she got a concussion crashing into the couch :( I was so scared and sick in my stomach that she hurt herself. If you don't throw the ball to a field or a really wide space with no boundaries , they will hit anything, even a soft couch and that bump seems like enough to give you a concussion. They are just fluffy and fluffy! They are so soft! I did a little research and it turned out that many Veterinarians and owners are absolutely against hamster balls As they are unnatural, potentially very dangerous and hamsters just want to get away I have kept mine for emergencies - if I ever need to take them away right away - but other than that I never use them.Just info for new owners .
