I rescued these two hamsters and I only got one ball because I didn’t know if they would like it. Well I got a second one because they absolutely love it. I love watching them run around and this is the perfect size for a teddy bear hamster 7inchThe white looking ball was a clear ball that has been used for two months now it’s not the best scratch resistant, but they still have fun

Very sturdy plastic and lock tight entrance thought it would not be big enough for my ferett but I was wrong perfect for her! I bought a similar item on Temu it was flimsy broke putting it together then her legs would go through the holes.This is perfect!

This little critter exercise ball is fantastic! It’s the perfect size for my hamster, giving them plenty of space to move around comfortably. The material is sturdy and well-ventilated, ensuring my pet stays safe and gets the exercise they need.The locking mechanism is secure but easy to open when it’s time to let them out. It’s also simple to clean and doesn’t scuff up floors when in use. My hamster seems to love it, and it’s been a great way to let them explore safely outside their cage.If you’re looking for a fun, safe exercise option for your small pet, this is a great choice. Highly recommend!

I got the 13" which is extremely large and flimsy. Several connections were already broken so it comes apart easily. I might purchase a smaller ball, but not sure if I want this one again because it's so thin and fragile. Hopefully, if I purchase an 11", it might be more sturdy and not have broken clips. I don't have high hopes.

Our Syrian - Hamela Anderson - loves this thing and so do her feline siblings lol. Now they can all hangout, safely, together! We especially love that it's clear so she can see. The price was just right for the quality and functionality of the item (the plastic was on the thinner side but as long as you're not playing soccer with it, it's good). Overall, 👍🏻👍🏻.

My family and I got the 11.5 inch ball in clear for my Syrian hamster. We noticed a huge improvement in his activity level. He absolutely loves this ball. Before we were using a 8 inch ball, which was too small and it made his spine curve in a painful way. So we are very happy. We got the much bigger ball. He loves it so much. She’s always flying down the house with it and it’s a very well built ball. The best ball I’ve used yet and we have been through too. Highly highly recommend it’s worth the money. Also it’s adorable. How active and happy they get from it.

I got this for my pet Sherman, a rescue rat, when he was only 4 weeks old. He was only a few inches long at that time. Sherman is now 17 in long and still plays in this ball. It's a little cramped because he is so big now. He gets plenty of exercise outside of the ball. Yet he still like to go in it and has free choice. I set it snugly outside of one of his playpens and when he wants to go for a roll, he will walk in and out and let me know. Then I grab the top and just attach it and let him roam around the house until he's done. When he's done, he travels it back to his playpen entrance. Then I let him out.The ball is pretty sturdy within reason. The opening takes a bit of savvy to make sure all the parts are fitted together before letting the thing roll. It is easy to clean.Even though it is 13 in in diameter, it's a little small for a rat this size. I wish they made 15 or 16-in exercise balls! When Sherman plays in it, his tail seems to warp over to the side a little. It would be better if his tail could be straighter behind him. But since he only ambles around in it for a a couple of minutes, and not fast at all, it serves its purpose.He also has a 12 in diameter exercise wheel. But this ball allows him to roam around the house and be safe. It's worth it to see how He gets enrichment exercise and play time.

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.)
