You can get a mouse. They are easy maintenance and can be trained! They cost less than a hamster, but require the same things as a hamster such as a wheel, cage with small bars, fresh food, seed mix, etc.
You should clean your hamster's cage every couple of days. PetProductsByRoyal.com
You can get grass out of your yard and leaves. They love the stuff!
Target had them a couple of months ago, but I couldn't find anything bigger than a large.
When first getting a hamster, you should give it a couple of days to adjust. You can start to get to know them by laying your hand in the cage with a treat on it. Your hamster will probably sniff your hand, and then grab the treat. If your hamster bites your hand, pull your hand out of the cage. Keep trying this for a couple of days and your hamster will begin to feel more comfortable around you!
In the first couple of weeks they will nurse but when there ready they will eat regular hamster food.
sorry to hear about hamster having cancer. When i wasa little girl my hamster developed a growth on his nose, it got bigger, the vet could do nothing except he did give him a couple of injections, so after only two weeks he died curled up in his little nest, he just walked over to it and went to sleep. No more suffering.
not some days but a couple of hours.
winter white hamsters only get so big. I've had them for a couple years, and the biggest one of mine has ever gotten is a little bigger then a chicken's egg. as they are dwarfs, they stay pretty small throughout their lives.
No, it will often take them a couple more times to mate before she becomes pregnant.
The small growth on the lower eyelid of your hamster might be a sty. This should go away in a couple of weeks.
There are a couple of ways. First take the top off then either pick it up and put it in or try with a treat by showing the hamster the treat to the hamster then putting the treat in the hamster ball.After awhile our hamster loved her ball so much all we had to do was open and put the ball near her and she would climb in on her on.
If that happens, then you should take your hamster to the closest vet near your house and fast!
