Our lovely syrian Silvestre died last Monday, and after having a hamster free home for a week we have a new addition to the family - Rodders! We got a new cage for him, as the previous one had housed our previous 2 furry friends, which came with a wheel and other bits and bobs. Yesterday was Rodders first night with us, and he spent it all on the wheel which sounds like a jet engine when he's on it! My DS and I hardly slept with the noise, (the previous cages wheel was pretty quiet and Silvestre preferred the bars!), even the dog slept downstairs instead of on my feet!
Can anyone recommend a quiet wheel for us to try please?

Definitely the Wonderland Wooden wheel. I tried a few plastic ones and they are either noisy or break easily. This is much better, completely quiet, robust and our hamster loves it! It is quite tall though so check dimensions. Good luck with Rodders!

Thanks! Have ordered from Amazon, so only a few more sleepless nights hopefully!
