WARNING BEFORE PURCHASE

I have two chinchillas and this suits them perfectly. It rolls well, looks good and lets you breathe. However, I have to give two stars here because the lid has come off more than once. We've had them on the street and the ground isn't very flat, but still. This is nothing to worry about as your pet will make adorable faces that you could take pictures of and spam on Facebook. We tape one door that is now permanently closed and use a smaller piece of tape on the other after the chinchilla isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Obsolete

My best purchase on Amazon.

Easy assembly and perfect size. It's definitely not as thin as the others I've bought. We got it for our very young guinea pig. He is still small and not very active. It basically just sits and chills in it while we hang out in the living room. When he's bigger and can get it rolling better, I'm sure he'll love it. Definitely worth the price and the wait. It's also pretty easy to clean. Our pig pours a lot but doesn't go through the cracks which I love. When the game time comes to an end, comes

Great ball for hedgehog

May 12, 2016 - Got this for my new hedgehog yesterday. We're still getting used to each other, but he loved that ball. I had to clean the cage and put it in a ball for the kids to watch while I worked. I thought it might move a little but it quickly stopped rolling. The best part is watching cats and dogs swerve out of the way, horrified at a big ball with a tiny hedgehog inside. Now the ball is huge for him but I expect it to grow and I'll be glad I have a big ball. I had some trouble gettingโ€ฆ

killed my pet :( avoid chinchillas

advertised for chinchillas but this ball literally killed my chinchilla that as the ball has a picture of a chinchilla on it and says it's for her it would have been ok would have been nice but then literally dropped dead i don't know why he died as it was quite cold outside and i wear it i don't think he overheated despite his fur my dog has played with him (they were separated by a ball) but they always play together and lick each other so i cant see a chinchilla having a stroke or panicโ€ฆ

Pros
  • this is amazing
Cons
  • only available in white

Disappointing, cheap and easy to escape

Pros: Clear is much more visible than color coded Kaytee practice balls, has a hole, is easy to clean and was purchased on sale. Cons: Thin, flimsy plastic, lid falls off, doesn't look solid. Compared to the colored 13-inch Mega Run About exercise balls I bought at the pet store, these clear ones are cheap, fragile, and definitely no more than $20. I wasn't sure about the colored balls beforehand. Keeping the design the same these clear ones are much thinner, more flexible and I'm sure theyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Exchange availability
