Not sustainable! suitable for exercise bikes

Bought this dwarf hamster ball for my daughter's robo hamster, at first I thought what a great purchase. We wanted to clean it up as every website says how unsanitary they are. We decided to give it a try. Anyway nothing, I mean nothing would fit in the tiny hole to clean the inside of the ball. I ended up having to break, bend and use another kitchen utensil (glass cleaning brush (soft)). such a pain After a few days, my daughter noticed that the ball itself was falling apart. So the ball weโ€ฆ

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. Theyโ€ฆ

Got Want We Wanted and works great!

Okay first I read people complaining about their pet urinating out of it but really how can you make a round ball with breathing holes and let the pet roam around the house safely with no problems to have with pets? , maybe a little pee?! I don't find this to be a problem because keeping your house clean will just make it faster to lay the floor behind your pet! This is a safe way to let your pet exercise and interact with kids, especially if you have a cat! We love ours. This is the thirdโ€ฆ

It's definitely worth it!

Love it! It's like a puppy! They ride and crack your ankles! It is so sweet! Pros: - adorable! I have one for each of my mice and they can explore places they couldn't before - the ball is big enough that they can't get lost under the kitchen counter or my couch, but small enough for the mice to be strong. enough to push them around and fit into research areas - they're small so easy to store - they're perfect for distracting my mice while I'm cleaning up their habitat, much better thanโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Obsolete

Photo description does NOT match New design = Not good - Not cool

UPDATE 09/13/2016: So if we buy a product more than once, we obviously have no way to "see" the last purchase on Amazon . simply merge the rating from your original purchase. So I now have to "combine" my review as an update BECAUSE the original item I reviewed below IS DIFFERENT which is why customers have been asking about this "new design" and how/if it is taken apart. I took some photos of this new design and it's not very well thought out. Someone somewhere must have thought it better toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Boring packaging
