What's that smell?



Hamster Fact:

The hamster has a keen sense of smell. They also have terrible vision. With this combined set of characteristics it makes sense that hamsters will mark their territory to figure their way around. It's equivalent to Hansel and Gretal leaving a breadcrumb trail to make their way through the forest.

Hamster Tip

If a hamster cage is stinky. Do not immediately clean the cage as the hamster will think it needs to pee more in order for it's scent to linger around resulting in more stink. Also when cleaning cages try to use scent free soaps as the soap scent can be over powering.
