It is widely known that hamster balls are actually very dangerous in most places,but unfortunately newer pet owners won't always know that.There are so many reasons that make hamster balls unsafe for all small pets,not just hamsters. - Hamster balls create awkward arching of the back.
- Hamster balls actually make it harder for small pets to see,even if they are clear,because of the awkward shape and such as well as if they are colored it is even harder.
- The ventilation holes do not provide adequate ventilation.
- The ventilation holes are also a toe trap and if your pet has a substantial tail it becomes a tail trap as well.
- Your pet cannot choose to escape if they want to.All they can do is either stand still,or run,and if they try to run to escape they won't ever escape anyways and it gives humans the illusion that they are actually enjoying this awful torture device.
- Hamster balls cannot be sold in Germany,which has the absolute best hamster care,due to how incredibly dangerous,stressful,and cruel they are.
- Small animals will develop back problems from prolonged usage due to the angle they must run at to move the ball.
- Even if the ball is large enough,all the problems listed still apply.
If you seriously don't believe me even still,there are already tons of resources out there proving that balls are not safe.In fact,one video in particular goes into great detail why these devices are unsuitable for all small animals.It is not the only resource out there,but it is one by a reputable channel.There are more than these though,but this is the perfect example video to start your journey to enlightenment.
