What is the best thing for a hamster to live in?

Hamsters feel the safest when they are inside a burrow, so it is essential to provide them with plenty of room to burrow. This means making their bedding deeper than you might otherwise. Hamsters need little vertical room since they’re so short. You can take advantage of this by providing them with a lot of bedding.
