Review: Great toy for hamster owner! - Our hamster "Milky", tried the new bus, got in and out of it pretty easily through the little back door. Love that it pops open with a push-button sign (you don't even know there's a button at first!) The back opens up and could connect to our cage with the tube. It comes apart top can disconnect so you can clean it easier. My daughter absolutely loves this bus. It has a little "steering wheel" which doesn't move but is great as a cup up front that you can put little treats in so the hamster will want to get in the bus. The wheels roll well and it can be picked up with the handle. Super cute, I would say it is great for fun play, short travel if you had to take it somewhere but definitely not a long term travel option as there's really not a lot of room to do much other than stand and walk around in a circle in the bus. Great addition to a cage with your own connector tube for an additional spot to camp out in.
