Kittyokc's Full Review: Super Pet; Itty Bitty Igloo
Our son recently got a pet of his very own, Sammy, a Robo Dwarf Hamster. Sammyis his responsibility and he's done a pretty good job of taking care of her.
With all the hamster goodies we got for setting her up in her new home, one thing was missing, one of those little igloos you always seem them curled up inside of in the pet store.
Since my son was doing a good job of taking care of her, we set off to Petco to see what little extras they had for hamsters. We saw all the igloos they had, but they all looked way too large for Sammy, until I spotted the lone Super Pet Itty Bitty Igloo, it was the only small one they had and it was the perfect size for Sammy.
The Super Pet Itty Bitty Igloo is made of durable plastic and kind of resembles a castle on the top with the nubs. What exactly the nubs are for, I'm not sure and Sammy has never climbed on top of it, so I'm guessing it's just for looks. There are also four air holes on the top.
The size of the igloo is a mere 4 inches wide by 4 1/2 inches deep by 3 inches tall, which makes it easy to see why they called it itty bitty. The igloo's come in a variety of translucent colors, the one we got was pink, which my son thought was perfect since Sammy is a girl. Other colors I've seen the igloos come in are green, yellow and a deep aqua blue color.
One of the neat things with the translucent color is that you can kind of see through it, at least enough to see your pet, but still give them the privacy they want.
Sammy loves her Super Pet Itty Bitty Igloo, if we don't have her out of her cage and she's not on her wheel, we're sure to find her in the igloo. Sometimes she'll lay on top of the bedding in the igloo and other times, especially when the cats are being nosey, she'll burrow under the bedding in her igloo.
The Super Pet Itty Bitty Igloo is also very easy to clean in warm soapy water. The rounded shape doesn't give you a whole bunch of nooks or crannies to try and scrub, which is a good thing. The part the gets the dirtiest is the bottom edge, but still is easy to clean. They claim it is odor and stain resistant, but we've never let it get dirty enough to test that theory.
I definitely recommend you get a Super Pet Itty Bitty Igloo for your mouse or small hamster if you haven't gotten one already, it gives them a nice place for privacy, which everyone needs from time to time and for a mere $2.50, it was a good deal.
