## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this work for a guinea pig?**
A: No. These will no matter the size, hurt and even kill a guinea pig. My friends guinea pig died from a spine injury using a ball. The product page says it's not intended for Guinea pigs, ferrets or rabbbits.

**Q: Will this item be big enough for a regular hamster?**
A: I have a dwarf hamster, it's plenty big enough for her but I honestly don't know enough about hamsters to give you a helpful answer. My girl is only the size of my palm. I probably wouldn't put any larger of an animal in that ball.. she's only in it when I clean her cage (to keep her busy) Hope this helps!!! :)

**Q: Can this connect to other sets to make a large circle or to track around a room?**
A: Yes. We bought 4 sets to make a large loop. There are no straight pieces, so your track is a series of s's. Fun.

**Q: Guinea pig? Im looking for something**
A: Definitely too small for a Guinea pig. And I don't think they're supposed to go in those balls anyway because of something about their feet. Try a plastic fence.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product to keep your pet healthy. Easy to clean and durable.
*by F***L on September 8, 2026*

My daughter‘s pet rat loved this ball. He was able to run around the house and get lots of exercise. We would even take him outside with it. We had both purple and clear and they worked well. It is very sturdy. It was also very easy to clean.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect, little ball.
*by C***E on August 8, 2026*

It's very big and perfect for our little rats.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Definitely worth it!
*by A***I on January 12, 2016*

I love these! It's like having a puppy! They roll around and bump into your ankles! It's so cute! Pros: -adorable! I got one for each of my mice and they get to explore places they couldn't before -the ball is big enough that they can't get lost under kitchen counter or my couch, but they're small enough that the mice are strong enough to push them and can fit in places to explore -they're small so they're easy to store -they're perfect to keep my mice distracted while I clean their habitat, much better than putting them in their puny cleaning crate that came with their habitat. -for the price, TOTALLY worth it. Cons: -they need to be cleaned after every use since the mice potty in then, and the hole is a bit small to fit my hand/sponge in and the edges where the lid latches are a little sharp and scratched me. I think I'm gonna get one of those sponges on a stick from the dollar store, which should work perfectly. -the lid pops off sometimes if the mice bump into things too hard. But as long as I'm keeping an eye on them, it's really not that bad. It only happened once and after about 15 minutes of play. -the lid is really flimsy, it feels like if I forced it too hard it would crack, but for $2, that's a minor setback, still worth it in my opinion. I'll update if anything changes :) (See photo for size reference, they're the PERFECT size for my fancy mice, but would probably be too small for a fat hamster and definitely too small for a rat.)
