Getting a hamster

So after alot of research and the kids asking every day i decided to get a teddy_bear hamster.

So today we're off shopping to get all the supplies it will need.

A coworker had a 80 gallon tank so i won't been that.

Any tips on what to buy

Be sure the top of the 80 gallon tank seals or locks securely with a vented lid. My son's hamster could get out. I covered the lid with a cookbook so he would stop moving the lid, and he chewed through the corner of a thick cookbook.

Hamster ball, first. Then hamster wheel, and then a habitrail...which is lots of fun.

Hamsters like little alfalfa cubes. He will also need a water feeder.
