If you happen to own a small pet like a hamster or a mouse, then you know that sometimes you need to take your pet with you when you leave your home. Whether that's for a visit to the vet, or even if you just need to have them nearby, you'll need a safe and reliable way to transport your beloved little furry friend. Now, one of the best ways to bring a small pet along with you is by using a small pet carrier, which are specifically designed for safely transporting small pets like hamsters and mice, as they come equipped with adequate ventilation, an escape-proof design and a safe and sturdy construction. So, if you're looking for a decent pet carrier to take your furry friend with you on-the-go, then the Happy Habitats Halo is a great choice for you to go with.
The Happy Habitats Halo is a small pet ball carrier for smaller breeds of hamsters and mice that's equipped with a carrying handle and magnetic kick-out stands, plus a detachable safe exercise roam ball with increased airflow thanks to its 2mm ventilation holes which are small enough to prevent any potential paw trapping, along with a safety lid integrated with a secure two-step locking mechanism that ensures your pet stays safely inside during transportation.
What's even more impressive about the Happy Habitats Halo is the fact that this small pet ball carrier has also recently won the award for the Best Product in Show at Superzoo in 2021.
Just like dogs and cats, smaller pets like hamsters and mice also need love, and deserve having their own dedicated pet carried, along with their own personal playing space.
So, let's have a slightly more detailed look at the Happy Habitats Halo and check out all the cool features that this small pet ball carrier has to offer both you and your little furry friend.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the unit's size, the Happy Habitats Halo comes at a generously large size given the fact that it is meant to be used by smaller breeds of hamsters and mice, with it measuring exactly 9.125 inches in diameter when fully-assembled. The exercise ball portion of the pet carrier is also reasonably large for smaller breeds of hamsters and mice, measuring exactly 7 inches in diameter.
In terms of its design, the unit as whole features a very simple and minimalist design, with its outer shell portion coming in a cool Bright-Orange color, while its exercise ball portion is fully-transparent.
Then, when it comes to the unit's construction, note that small pet ball carrier features a very durable and solid construction, as the whole unit is built of high-quality TPU Plastic.
Moving on to the Halo's unique components and features. The outer shell portion of the Happy Habitats Halo comes equipped with a set of two (x2) magnetic kick-out stands which can be easily attached to the unit's bottom-side so that your hamster or mouse can use it as a stationary exercise ball, where he / she will run happily inside without roaming around.
Furthermore, the outer shell portion of the Happy Habitats Halo also comes equipped with a built-in carrying handle that allows for easy transportation of the unit, allowing your small pet to exercise at home or on-the-go.
Finally, there's also the safe exercise roam ball portion of the Halo, which can be fully-detached from the outer shell portion of the unit in order to be used as a traditional exercise ball for hamsters and mice.
The Halo's detachable safe exercise roam ball also comes perforated with several 2mm ventilation holes that are small enough to prevent any potential paw trapping, while still providing an increased airflow that ultimately allows your pet hamster or mouse to easily breathe fresh air while running inside it.
Last but not least, at the top-side of the Halo's exercise ball, there's also a built-in safety lid that's integrated with a secure two-step locking mechanism (consisting of a circular lock lid, plus a smaller locking latch) that ensures your pet stays safely inside the unit's exercise ball during transportation.
