I think something that is REALLY fun about having a small animal that needs to live in a habitat is making it a hobby to try to make the best possible habitat for them. Like there's nothing more fun than planning and executing different ways create paradise for an animal with a brain no larger than a peanut.

#simon says #currently I'm TRYING to work on moving out so I can't really afford to upgrade my Hamster's tank just yet #but since it's a size 20 tall I got for free there's a lot of wasted vertical space i want to utilize #so im currently plotting making a little platform for her to climb on that has some toys or hides for her #I've honestly been looking at some of the reptile tanks at my store because some of them LOOK like hamster heaven #but I'll have to do a lot more research before I do that #also I will probably never post the hamster tank here until I upgrade it because small pet people are... something else #like i understand that when it comes to small pets like reptiles/small mammals/fish there's a lot of misinformation about proper care #but people get very hostile if your set-up is anything less than Ideal #like currently my tank is just adequate #it does it's job and my hamster is happy and healthy #but because it is not ideal (bigger and fancier) I will likely face backlash #like I know a 20 gal tall is NOT the perfect tank size and shape #and even just going from a 20 tall to a 20 wide would be a huge improvement #but I do not have the money to buy a new tank right now #so i must make do and improve what I have until I have the ability to upgrade #i really do want to make a little hamster paradise for her tho #i love my lil silly beans. she deserves a 100 gallon paradise in my mind #but alas. we must make do with what we have
