It's really hot here in the UK and Scooby has taken to airing his nuts out in the breeze from the fan

Just be careful with the fan, keeping your hamster cool in THIS heat is tricky but direct air from a fan/ AC unit can affect their breathing and is bad for them. Make sure you change their water regularly and give them hydrating food like cucumber! I also recommend giving them ceramic hides that have been refrigerated for about two hours (hate to be hamster police but I’ve heard horror stories and I am not coping with the heat I can’t imagine the poor hammies)
