Hi Everyone,
I would love to get anyone's opinion on keeping my Hamster, Little Bear warm.
I am thinking of getting a reptile heating mat that is temp adjustable or possibly a seed starter mat. Is this safe? Has anyone used one? If so any good brand recommendations?
Per research: I have a nite-angel enclosure with deep bedding on wheels. I would attach it to the underside of the enclosure allowing for ventilation. So its not in the enclosure and he can move up and away from it if he chooses.
Side Note,
Gets below 65 degrees F / 18.3 C
Right now I have a space heater. I add hot water bottles under his home (never touching the bottom). And drape a blanket over part of his enclosure. I have a thermometer so I can always check and adjust. He is 1 years old. Luckily he is very sweet and happy and in perfect health.
Thanks a ton,
Teal & Little Bear
