Hamsters usually are pretty neat and tidy, they poop a lot, they like to make their beds in one place. They don't like to be with other hamsters. They often times will stuff their cheeks full of stuff. They like to groom themselves a lot, they often times will hide things like food in their beds. They like to be pet and they will eventually learn their own name. Which I also think is very cute.

Well first of all since their nocturnal they will sleep during the day and be active at night, So i suggest letting them sleep more, even if you really want to play.Also they tend to constantly try to escape from their cages or possibly from your hands. So i suggest keeping an close on on them when u let them loose. And also usually when their frightened they pee no matter where they are. So ya i hope that helped a bit if you really wanna find out more about hamsters search the web!

Hm, the characteristics of a hamster... tough question! There are many characteristics of a hamster like...

Active - they love to run and play (mostly at night)

Lazy - they also love to sleep (mostly during the day)

Neat - they clean themselves often

Loud - they can snicker and make loud noises with all of their toys (wheel, ball, etc.)...

And there are many more, but these are just the general characteristics of a hamster. Every hamster is different. Some more active than others, some more lazy. If you own a hamster, observe him for a little bit. See what he does! Maybe he'll sleep or maybe he will get on his wheel and have a little jog in place. But remember, it all depends on the time of day. At night, they tend to be more active and during the day they are sleepy and preparing for the night.

Hamsters are nocturnal, or they sleep all day and are active during the night. They will bite/nip if they feel threatened or if you wake them up.
