And both Cheech and Chong love it. I thought Chong would because I tried him with a wheel (it was a plastic rat wheel and I gave him very careful supervision to make sure he didn't chew it. It was a test, if he used it I would pay for a proper chin wheel, but he just ran on top of it and I was worried he would hurt himself, then he started to chew it so I took it out.) Cheech I thought would hate it because she hates anything new. She ignores anything new I put in her cage for months until one day you wake up and it's been chewed to bits. :)
It was so funny watching them in the ball for the first time, they were all wobbly. I opened it at one end and put that end near the open cage. It took a long time for them to venture in the first time, but the more they're out in it the quicker they jump in when I offer them the chance. They've even worked out how to get over the frame at the bottom on our doors by running really fast. It was a gamble but it payed off and now I have two very happy chins who can get even more exercise, but I limit it to 20 mins at a time in the ball to make sure they don't overheat. :)
They still don't like each other though. :doh:
