How I spot clean my cages! 

I'm getting a lot of questions about how often I spot clean or how often others should spot clean! 🧼 I don't actually have a schedule for this, for Dipper and Waddles usually I'll do it once a week or sometimes more depending on how messy they were the night before and Mabel like mentioned I usually just know once she smells stinky and I clean the above surface as needed. As for how often others should spot clean that's not something I can determine, all of your hamsters will have different habits- some hamsters will be messier than others, some enclosures are larger than others and all these things play a factor in how often you're going to have to do it. If you feel the enclosure is messy you likely need to do a little spot clean. 😌

I have neve been this grateful for the fact that my hamsters “bathrooom” is just in a chamber in her hideout at the top of the bedding

Just goes to show how every hamster is different and has their own quirks!

I love how each have their own personalities

7:00 Me thinking, "That's a very odd piece of pillow moss" 🤔 Until I realized it was Mabel a second later 🤦‍♀️

Dipper, Mabel, and Waddles are all so cute!! Yet again another adorable video from Tori ❤

Yay! I’m glad you posted because I was literally about to clean out my hamsters cage. ( and her cage is pretty big so it takes me a while) ❤️ 🐹

This video is amazingly apropo - having viewpoints of each of the hamsters, each with different behaviors for nesting. Our new adopted hamster, Alfredo, is EXACTLY like Mabel. Two previous hamsters slept and urinated in a multi-chamber. It seemed so easy to clean up after them and “keep an eye” on them re: health. Alfredo does not do this! He eats, sleeps, urinates in tunnels visible through the glass of his detolf. I wasn’t sure how to handle all the activity underground when it comes time to spot clean….now I have the proper tips!

Man her hamsters live like king and queens! If I were a hamster I'd want to be her's. She takes really good care of them.

So excited!! I’ve always wanted to know how you spot clean your hamster’s cages!

hey! my mom also hates when i use my bare hands to clean my hamster’s cage. But it’s easier to clean it and as you said, all of us have water and soup to wash our hands. I’m so happy that i found someone that has the same thought as me.

Pets are very cute, and just being around them naturally brings a smile to one's face. Pets are also very affectionate and will respond to your affection. In addition to dogs, which express their emotions by wagging their tails, cats and tori also show their affection to their owners in their own ways, helping children to grow up emotionally rich.💖💖😍😍😻😻🐶🐶🐕

Im so happy you posted this i had trouble spot cleaning my hamster cage so this is very helpful

Thank you for making this video!. Seeing other people clean there hamster cages and holding them etc makes me want to get another dwarf so bad. Waddles at the end having a little nosey lol. 🙂

aww the way dipper peeks out when you open the temporary cage is so cute!!

Was great to see the different uses of their homes and preferences just goes to prove that Hammies are Sentient Beings.

I am so thankful for your videos! A few years back I had a hamster in a way too small cage (plus tiny wheel). I was able to move her into a custom bin cage after I learned that was too small, but she died shortly after due to old age. It was really heart breaking because I never got to fully get everything a happy hamster needs. I’ve taken a break for a few years to get to a place where I have to time to take care of a hamster, but now I think I’m ready. I’m slowly putting together a tank for one now and I’ve watched so many of your videos and learned so much! I can’t wait to do it right this time.

youre my fav youtuber! Especially when i need hamster tips, i would watch ur vids. You were the yt channel i learned from when i got my hammy, tysm!

I’m an 11 year old and I have been researching into this a lot, you have really helped me get to know a hamster, before this o thought you could just put them in a cage and they would be fine, so I just want to thank you, I hope to get a mixed gold and white Syrian on my birthday April 7th, so thank you 🙏

My hamster bear just passed today. He was my first hamster and I’m just so heartbroken 💔 I’ve decided I’m going to do some more research and get another hamster. Thank you so so much for helping me allow him to live a happy life. I loved him alot and I’m very greatful to have you! Thank you. So so much! Your an amazing person and I love you

I just got a hanster and she's living her best life cause of you love ur hamster videos

Your Mable is just like my Winnie! It's good to know we spot clean similarly and I'm doing it right! I had to remove her food stash the last time I cleaned because the pee was soaked into the food which was disgusting. I made sure to put fresh stuff back in the same place, with old (not wet) bedding on top so hoping it wasn't too bad for her.

this video gave me good tips on better ways i can spot clean, once again your videos are helpful as always!! you’re such a great inspiration to many

Wow it’s great to know how you spot-clean your hamsters cages! Great tips and tricks! Thank you! :)

thank you victoria for uploading this video and for all your hard effort put into this. very exited to watch :)

omgg my hammy is just like mabel! her mess is always under so much bedding 🤣 also im not sure if you remember me but my hamster was the one who had an infection under her arm, here's an update just incase you want to know how she's doing :) im so grateful we found a way to feed her her medication and the infection is drying up!! so happy 😊🥰

I REMEMBER ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO YOU GAVE ME TIPS FOR HOLDING MY HAMPSTER,AND IT DIED NOT LONG AGO SO WE GOT A NEW ONE AND THIS ONE IS MUCH MORE CALM,AND I REALY WANNA THANK YOU! ❤❤❤

Omg thank u girl for showing us the way u spot clean cagessss super appreciate the effort you took

Ok but why did I need this video? ♥️ they all look soooo cute!! I've never heard of a hammy sleeping on top of the bedding!!! Dipper is definently unique!!

This was so helpful! I can never tell what is too much cleaning or what I should clean. Thank you!

It's so evident and sweet how much you love and care for your hamsters. They are adorable.

I LOVE WHEN VICTORIA POSTS ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for this victoria! I have always struggles with spotcleaning.

Great timing…. I literally JUST finished cleaning out Sniffy’s enclosure. I think I may have removed a little too much of his food hoards because of all the poop mixed in. 😯 But he will be ok. Next time I just won’t remove as much. Great and informative video, Victoria! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I’m so glad that you made it clear not to clear out the food hoard, my mom told me to clear it out wile I was spot cleaning once, and I wasn’t sure if I should or not so I’m glad you made that clear.

Another extremely helpful video? Thank you so much Victoria! we love you 🥰

Oh no, I had no idea removing their hoarded food was stressful! Thank you so much for telling everyone and i now know to not take away my hamsters food! 🐹

Thank you! I have been hoping you would do a video just like this! My hammy started to burrow when I moved her into her Niteangel and I was hoping for guidance/best practice on cleaning burrows. ❤️

Omg so early! Love you and thank you so much for giving my hamster a better life!

Thank you so much for this video! This really helps me spot clean my cages much better!

I absolutely LOVE all your animals but I think Dipper has my heart. He is so freaking cute it makes me wanna cry🥺 And I loved how we got a shot of cleo in the background when you were cleaning Dipper enclosure😅 all your babies are adorable 💗

My hamster is like Mabel he likes to pee in his sleeping burrow. Hearing that Mabel does this and how you spot clean makes me feel so much better. Because of you, yesterday morning I recognized the signs of a respiratory infection. The vet couldn't see him until 2:30 and by that point it was in a life threatening situation. He needed: oxygen, nebulizer and injections of antibiotics. I just got a call back from our vet and our sweet boy is making a full recovery and can come home tonight. Without the knowledge that you have shared we could have lost him. 🥰

my hamster sleeps on top of the bedding too !! she’s does know how to burrow but she just doesn’t sleep under the bedding, she is quite similar to dipper bcs she’s also very messy on the surface, she does have a burrow but she only sleeps in it sometimes. even though she’s a dwarf i have to take her out of her enclosure when spot cleaning bcs she’s a real busybody and won’t leave me alone

AHHH im so happy to watch this video

I loved the video!!(as usual) Your hamsters are soooo adorable!!! Can you do a updated house/pet room tour?

Yayy I have a hamster he is turning one in a week or so and you've helped me take care of him since March when I got him 🐹

THEYRE SO ADORABLE!!

I do not have any hamsters, but I do have a bunny. I enjoy watching your videos because I can relate going above the standard to give your pet what they need. I did so much research for my bunny and now he is living like a prince! Thank you for all you do for the small pet community!

Thanks for this video! Great to see how the cleaning process differs with hamsters. Mine resembles Mabel, I have to dig around for pee and destroy her burrows every couple of days :(

I love your channel so much, I'm getting a grey male Syrian hamster soon and I'm hoping to be the best hamster mom ever :)

Awesome video, Victoria! Thanks for all your effort that goes into all ur vids!

This video was great! I love all of your videos but this one was exceptionally helpful. I have a female syrian who mostly loves to pee in her wheel but she'll poop way down at the bottom. I had been pulling out her food stash because of the poop, I never even thought about how it might stress her out! Next time I will leave it undisturbed. I also love how Dipper pops his head out right as you opened his carrier to go back in his enclosure. They're all so much fun to watch!

This is such a good video and will be so helpful to new owners! My hamster is similar to waddles and dipper, only peeing in the multi chamber hide and sand bath so it's easy to spot clean. I didn't know it was okay to leave so much poop in, so I'll try not to clean too much next time.

My parents when they saw the bedding in their cages: "Nooo you don't need that much bedding its for them to walk on" Me: guys... the hamsters need to burrow they can't with like an inch of bedding the minimum is 6 inches of bedding. my parents: ohh that's why u always put sp much bedding in their cages! Me: yes that is why.

You put so much work into your videos.😊 Thank you so much!

Thank you for posting this!! I’m getting my hammy baby on Monday so I was curious about this!

wow! posting a lot! from watching your previous video, i know just how much effort you put into these things. thank you! you’re great!

WOW you put so much work into your animals. 😁

Ok I have been waitin for this for YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another fantastic video Victoria. Thanks for all your tips & tricks. Love to all the fur babies (kitties & bunnies included) 🐈‍⬛🐰🐹💕

I love all your hamsters! You take amazing care of them!

i've been waiting for this video!!

i clean it bare hands too ! you're not alone ! and thank you so much for the velcro tip ! my hamster made a huge bang on the enclosure noise when running at night, did a non slip mat at the bottom but velcro would be better !

I love how you pointed out that soap and water exist, I always feel like I'm the only one who doesn't really care about wearing gloves for that exact reason!

I love your hamsters ❤ They're so adorable

Thanks for this Victoria! I can now do this with my hamster! x

Thank you Victoria!💕🙏

What an adorable hamster😍😍

So cute 🐹 So adorable 🐹 I was very healed

Waddled is adorable. Very helpful video, I know you've talked about spot cleaning before, but the video shows how much work it can be. I used to just empty the whole thing into a garbage bag every week and wash, of course I had the smaller cages too. Sorry, it was before l watched your videos. Now I know better, like mr scrooge, but not as old.

Thank you for this video Victoria!
