My Beautiful Little Hammy

Here's a few photos of my gorgeous little Syrian hamster.

She’s beautiful . I especially love the second to last photo.

Thank you. It took about 2 to 3 months to tame her. Now I can handle her without being bitten. Her cage is in the same room as me. She doesn't keep me awake. We're used to each others movements. What I like best of all, is when I'm getting ready for bed, she's not normally up. But by the time I come back from the bathroom, she's waiting for me at her cage gate, for what I call her little goodnight cuddle.

So fluffy! I can relate. Our Oaky didn't bite, but was very skittish for 2-3 months. Now VERY comfortable being handled.

I'm just waiting for her to get up. Going to weigh her tonight. Not done it for a while.

Is she a big girl? Some female hamsters are.

 

[Eric65]

No she's not big. I know some can be. But I think that's down to all the exercise she gets running on her wheel at night. She certainly puts in some miles. She has a 12 inch silent wheel, and I've been thinking about upgrading it to one with a mileometer on it.

Hello Hammy, you are so beautiful and cute Welcome to the forum

 

[Eric65]

Yes, she certainly is. Hammy has given me many hours of pleasure and happiness with her antics. Being single, she keeps me happy. I love talking to her, and watching her as she goes about her day. She had her first visit to a vet for a nail trim back in May, which I was a little bit worried about. But she handled it well, so I treated her to a new wheel and hammock.
