Urine Problems

You can probably find one on eBay and Etsy too. I bought my CSW there.

I also have my wheel placed in a rabbit sized litter box where my hedgie does all her business. The wheel fits in there too so I just take it all out to clean it. She loves her Carolina storm wheel and they can be pretty reasonably priced on Etsy. She loves it and loves to run and it’s a bit more stable than the ones sold in pet stores I feel.

Oof the shipping costs a fortune... I don't know when I'll be able to pay for that.

[Brooke Lancelot]

Will this one work aswell?

[Ria]

No you see the little holes, theres a risk of nails getting caught and then they get hurt as they wont notice go to run and then likely rip off the nail

[Brooke Lancelot]

Oh... Flip. Ok so any holes is a no no for future references? We've actually made a plan for the wheel that I have.
We take out the stand and place it on the cage. The he won't pinch against the crossbars and stand. Or must I still remove the crossbars?

[Ria]

If you take the crossbars off it should be fine because they are big problem on the one you already have. If you can get those off its perfectly okay to use.

[Brooke Lancelot]

Awesome. The crossbars are coming off. We've got a plan to attach it to the cage itself since I can't just take the crossbars off, because its connected to the wheel and acts as its axis. But putting it on the cage, we'll be changing the weld and the crossbars would've be needed anymore.

[Ria]

If your putting it on the cage, you'll need a back to the wheel to make it easier, and a bearing to make it spin. So you'll need to get a round circle for the back put a hole in the middle of that for the bearing and fix it securly to the wheel where its not going to come off. And use the bearing to attach it to the cage.

[Brooke Lancelot]

Yep, already on that. Accept for the back. Must there be a back, or can I just keep it open?

[Ria]

The back would make it more secure, and be easier for putting on a bearing, and attaching to the cage but I havent seen anything anywhere about it needing a back.
