First, gather all of your supplies. You will need bleach, water, soap and a washcloth. Next, remove the hamster from its cage and transfer it to a container where it will be safe and comfortable. Remove everything that is inside the cage including the water bottle, food dish, and all of its toys and other furnishings.
Throw out the old bedding but set just a little bit aside so that you can mix it in with the new bedding. Hamsters will grow stressed as they rely heavily on their sense of smell and will react negatively to any sudden changes in their environment. Once you’ve thoroughly cleaned the cage and its contents with water, bleach and soap, allow it to dry thoroughly.
Once you’ve put in the bedding and all of the cage’s contents back in, you can put the hamster back in. Veterinarian clinic Woodbridge can provide further advice on pet care.
