(Crossposted to r/hamsters)
Hi everyone! I am looking to get a hamster in the near future and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for pet supplies that are safe for hamsters that can be bought locally?
My priority is to find a paper-based bedding that is good for burrowing, but I would also love to hear about any favourite foods, toys etc. that your hamsters adore.
For those interested, I have a 90 x 45 x 45cm aquairum incoming and already ordered some platforms and housing suitable for a dwarf hamster.

Hi! I don’t have hamsters, but I have rats, and in the past I had purchased a paper shredder (Amazon) for about 3000 yen and just shredded my own bedding. In the long run, it’s much cheaper. Now I use felting/fabrics and wash them, but I’m not sure about how that would work for a hamster…

Here’s a link to a softer bedding I would sometimes use to supplement it as well – you can buy at some pet stores but not all from my experience.
