What is the best breed of hamster for a twelve year old?

Answer 1

Usually golden hamsters make good pets for 12 year olds. Dwarf hamsters are small and likely to get squashed!! It really depends on the sex. Male hamsters are more friendly, but females can be very cuddly.

Answer 2

The best kind of hamster for a 10 year old would be a teddy bear hamster. Most pet stores have them. My sister and I were about 10 years old when we first got hamsters. They are easy to interact with and they are the most playful. I got a couple panda bear hamsters when I was 14 but mine were a little more difficult to play around with. Dwarf hamsters are out of the question unless you just want to watch them because they are very fast and they bite. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

If by that you mean what is the best type of hamster, then I would say a syrian because they are slightly easier to handle than a breed such as a Russian or dwarf. They wriggle less.

Answer 4

Syrian hamsters are really social, loving, kind, and do not bite after tamed.

Answer 5

a syrian (golden) because they are more child friendly

Answer 6

a rat
