Try as many foods as you can until you find something he/she likes and is healthy. My hamster is picky, so I have personal experience. My hamster doesn't like grapes, bananas or apples. She does like cherries though, so that's what I give her. I hope I helped! :D

A hamster can eat most fruits and veg. If it is poisonous to a hamster they will know to avoid it. Lettice is the only food I would advise you to avoid as it can be known to give a hamster diohorrea.
What can i feed my hamster when i don't have hamster food?
If you're all out of hamster food (I suggest you get some soon), you can feed your hamster carrots, lettuce, any vegetable. Stay away from foods other than this. You don't want to take any risks with your hamster. Also, you don't know if your hamster has any serious allergies. At all costs, do what I said. But, if you can help it, get some more hamster food! It's the easy and safe route to go.
What if you lost your hamster and you don't know where it is?
set a trap with food to catch it... make a "staircase" of a few books leading up to a hamster treat or food, put a bin on the other side of the "top" and when the hamster gets the treat, scoop him into the bin.

Can hamsters stay alone for a weekend?
Yes, you can leave a hamster alone for a weekend. I have left my hamster alone for up to a week. Obviously, you can't just leave them as is, you need to make sure they have enough food and water for the amount of time you are gone. You should do these things before you leave: * Make sure the hamster(s) cage is clean before you leave. * You should know how much water your hamster drinks in a few days, so leave him at least that much water. I recommend completely filling the bottle up with clean water on the day you leave even if he will not drink that much in the time you're gone. * Make sure to fill his food bowl up. Make sure he has enough food for however long you are gone. If you will be gone longer and think he won't have enough food, buy a hamster food log. They are inexpensive, provide more food for extended stays, and my hamster loves them. * Make sure his cage is out of direct sunlight while you're gone. If you do all of that, he should be fine!

How do you throw a party 4 a hamster?
Well, the hamster will probably not know whats going on, but that is still a good idea. For gifts you might give a new food dish, a cage accessory or a ratatouille food thingy For cake I suggest the hamster doesn't eat anything or blow out candles. But it would still be a good idea. I think the best gift would be a ball, or a cage makeover. You could scrub the cage, soak it in warm water, buy a new food bowl, and give your hamster their favorite treat.
