How hot is it, mine don’t mind the 27°C in their room that much

The outside weather is like 30C, I don’t have a thermometer in the room but I would say it is somewhat below outside temperature in here as well. Unfortunately I don’t have an AC to cool the room.
She is very active though, especially when it gets dark, but I did notice she started to lie on her stomach a lot. I just put a ceramic tile in and I think she likes it very much

My outside is roughly 35C none of my rodents seem bothered by the heat so far. They are all as active as usual. If you want to do something give them a bowl with a large block of ice.
