4 Issolvi l-problemi
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Ferplast Favola Hamster Cage.
| Problema | Kawża Possibbli | Soluzzjoni |
|---|---|---|
| Exercise wheel is stiff or not spinning. | Bedding caught in mechanism; wheel needs cleaning; wheel is too small for hamster. | Clear any bedding from around the wheel's axle. Clean the wheel thoroughly. Consider upgrading to a larger, more suitable wheel if your hamster struggles to use it. |
| Water bottle is dripping. | Air bubble in spout; faulty seal; bottle not properly seated. | Tap the bottle to release air bubbles. Ensure the rubber stopper is correctly inserted and the bottle is securely attached to the cage. If dripping persists, the bottle may need replacement. |
| Bedding is scattering outside the cage. | Hamster is actively digging near the top edge; excessive bedding. | The deep base is designed to minimize scattering. Ensure bedding level is appropriate and not overfilled. |
| Hamster attempting to escape. | Cage not securely latched; bar spacing too wide for very small hamsters. | Double-check that all side clips are firmly latched. The wire mesh has a safe 1/4 inch bar space. If your hamster is exceptionally small, monitor closely. |
