You shouldn't need a topper if someone is around to supervise, but if it's for a cage it would need one. It's very big for a cage though! Yes life is weird lol. Our first hamster was for my 6 year old stepson - who lost interest as the hamster got older, but I absolutely fell head over heels in love with the little thing! They get you like that. He used to go to sleep on my knee and sit on the sofa between us! When he was tame. They can really bond with a human or two and you become Mum! They are like parents when they get older - tolerating your mistakes and looking stern at you. It's all very interesting! I am hooked and have had hamsters ever since of different species.
