emslie - 2007-04-10 i have a small cute golden hamster and he is the sweetest! he always is so curious and when i take him out of his cage he sticks his little paws up in the air and wiggles his cute little nose. his name is beverley because when i got him i thought he was a girl but i guess not. and i decided that since he got used to his name he should not have it changed. all i have to say to you is hamsters are the cutest and if you get one love it like its your own child. trust me, it rewards big time! emslie
Ella - 2007-04-08 well i went out yesterday and was some adorable dwarf hamsters, so i got one and now i have one called tinker. Its so playful and cute.
Lanen - 2007-04-08 I have been a hamster owner since i was 7 and i have learned alot about the little furries from my own experiences. For older beginners, i suggest russian Dwarf hamsters, due to their lovable nature and human friendly ways (for older people because their small bodies tend to be harder to hold). Where, for younger owners, i would recommend teddy bear hamsters (they are larger and are easier to hold if they start to squirm). I have also found that when teddy bear hamsters get older, some start to let their hygiene go, cleaning their long fur less. To me, the best way to bathe Your teddy hammy is to take a shallow bucket/ pan and fill it with luke warm water (no more than neck length on your hammy). If no shallow bucket is available, take a regular bucket and (once its filled to about 1 inch away from the top) drape a large wash cloth over the rim and let some of the center of the cloth dip into the water. water will fill this hammock & you have a perfect place to bathe your furry friend.
Kaitlynn - 2007-04-08 Hey there, Im kaitlynn. I live in FortMcMurray, Alberta but yesterday I was in Edmonton, Alberta. I was going to go shopping so I had some more cloths after spring break but then I saw some puppies in a petstore at the West Edmonton Mall, after that I just had to go take a look at the other pets. There were some Teddy bear hamsters so I bought two of them because they were just so cute! Now I have two male teddybear hasmters, one I named Cheako and he's a light brown/golden coulor and he's really friendly. The other one is his big brother which I can't decide what to name him, but he's black and white, him and his brother (Cheako) have the same patterns on them but Cheako has light brown and white fur instead of black and white. My black hamster is really mean, he bites at people when they try to pick him up. They're just babies still so I keep them in the same cage. But soon Im going to get another cage for them.
Danielle - 2007-04-07 i bought a male dwarf hamster name Teddy in November, and my boyfriend just bought me 2 more dwarf hamsters yesterday. both r females name Beavis and Butthead (boyfriends idea). well when i put Teddy and Beavis together, they were breeding and i was like "wow, they just met". when i put teddy and butthead together, they just fight. teddy is trying to breed with her but butthead wont let him. but they all are so cute and nice.
ALVEENA - 2007-03-30 HI! My name is Alveena and I just got two teeny tiny baby dwarf hamsters! I named them Kisses and Hugs. They are so cute! I've never had hamsters before but I'm looking forward to the experience.
JLA - 2007-03-29 I bought my daughter three hamsters and sadly within a day two died, we had a long hair left. We went to get a repalcement hamster at a different pet store and ended up with three more (they were being sold as snake food for $1.09). When we got home we realized that we now had two males and two females. They were housed in the same cage for two days (not recommended) The female that we got with the males became noticably fatter so we figured she was pregnant, sure enough she had a litter of 9 pups. They are now 10 days old and very healthy. Our other female (long hair) gave birth two days ago to 8, sadly one died. Our total is now 20 hamsters. So far one baby has a home, I don't think my 2 and 3 yr old will let anymore go. We have switched our males over to bins due to the bigger size of them, once the pups are big enough both mothers will get bins as well as all the pups. Although this was completely unplanned it has been a great experience for my daughters, They now only take care of the males due to their age and I don't want them disturbing the mothers. We have documented (a little) the progress of the hamsters and are considering breeding again in the future, our hamsters have their own room, so there is plenty of space.
Charmel - 2007-03-28 One of our "baby" golden hamsters just had her first litter-14 or 15 pups! We got her when she was about 6 weeks old and mated her with a 1 year old male. We weren't even sure she was a female until they connected almost immediately. We are very excited but also worried about finding housing should the entire litter survive. Wish us luck. Hamsters are so sweet.
AnaMaria - 2007-03-26 When I was 8 years old all I wanted was a hamster. Christmas was coming and I was so excited for it to soon arrive. I would ask my friends if they knew if I was getting anything small and furry. (*Wink Wink*) Whenever my friend Julie would start giving me hints on my ultimate Christmas present my brother would get mad and start beating her up. But I wwould just cover my ears because I always liked surprises. So when christmas came I was so excited! But i opened all my gifts and there was no hamster to be found. But my mom said "wait there is just one thing we haven't given to you yet." I was so excited to see what she and my dad were going to bring out. But the wait was over, My mom brought in 2 Desert Dwarf Hamsters! I was so happy, and til this day I have only 1 Desert Dwarf Hamster.
If you provide your Hamster with a wheel, it will run up to 8 miles per night!
