Dog vs Cat

[Catherine]

Heated stones. Hmmm. That bears thinking about. I wonder if they could provide power outage heat. They could be heated outside(a safety issue) and brought in. Even a little heat source would help.

I hear you Tom. Space and power, two things in short supply. I have a little electric heater. It is filled with some kind of oil. It heats up and then gives off the heat over time. Even if you unplug it when you are out, the heat still radiates.

One dwarfie would not need too much space as long as you have a good wheel. The cage could be on levels with ladders so the hamster would have more area to run. Dwarfies sleep during the day so the hamster would not miss you while you are out. You could cover the cage with a blanket to keep the warmth in. A sleeping hamster would not mind at all.
