Answer 2

well, first you have to have a cage, with some bedding inside of it. Next buy some hamster food from pets mart or any place that sell pet items

ex- Pet co, Pets mart, and Pets plus. Make sure you have water for it. refill water daily. Make sure you buy a ball so it can run around in the house.

You have to have a good safe cage, a solid bottom one with bars, or an aquarium. The plastic ones with bars you can only get at pet stores or on-line, but they are usually $20-30! Aquariums are less expensive, and pretty much escape proof, but you have to get a screen for the top. The only drawback is they don't have as good ventilation. Buy some good shavings... pine usually isn't good unless it is ALL NATURAL! Get a food dish, food especially for hamsters, a water bottle or a crock. I have a water bottle because the crocks can get tipped over, or the hamster will get shavings in it, and that will get really messy! If you do get a crock, you have to refill it everyday... with a water bottle you can refill it about once a week. You can also leave your hamster for 2 or 3 days at your house with a water bottle and plenty of food if you want to go away for the weekend. Most importantly, love your little friend. Don't forget to change the shavings at leastonce a week.
