The hamster urinates and urinates randomly, and the hamster’s urine smell is relatively strong, sometimes covering up its own odor, so the hamster itself is not willing to live in an environment with a strong urine smell. Most hamsters can pee at a fixed point, and the place where hamsters usually pee is always the farthest place from their nest in the hamster cage. Therefore, when considering the placement of objects in the hamster cage, the hamster nest and toilet should be placed in accordance with this living habit of the hamster. However, not all hamsters can pee at a fixed point, especially the baby mouse, because they sometimes sleep anywhere, as long as the place to pee is far enough away from the place where they rest. Hamsters are very smart animals. For hamsters who don’t like to pee at a fixed point, as long as they undergo the following training, they can get rid of the bad habit of peeing everywhere.
First of all, a toilet should be prepared, and the height of the exit should not be too high, so as not to be inconvenient for hamsters to enter and exit. The toilet should be placed at the farthest place from the rat’s nest. For example, the rat’s nest is in the lower right corner of the cage, and the toilet should be placed in the upper left corner, because hamsters are accustomed to urinating farther from the nest. The sand placed in the toilet can be cat sand or other sand that can absorb water and odor. At the beginning, the hamster may not be able to figure it out, so take a look at where it usually urinates and try to move the toilet there, so that the hamster should go to the toilet to urinate. If that doesn’t work, wipe the area where the hamster urinated with wood chips and put it on the sand in the toilet, or put the feces on the sand to try. In general, golden rats remember the location of the toilet more easily than dowav hamsters.
