Do newborn hamsters have to have the light on?

New born hamsters are blind so the light will not really affect them, but it may disturb mum. She will prefer it dark so she and her new litter feel safe. There is a possibility she may eat the young if she feels stressed or threatened

How do you tell if a girl is into you?

With sincerity in his voice, he tells you softly and gently that he loves you. He continues by saying you mean the world to him. He may even tell you that not a day goes by that he isn't thinking about you. It seems that everything you are interested in... HE'S interested in. He's always ready to take you somewhere exciting... the nearest theme park, the theater, boating, rock concert, opera, nightclubs. His money is easily spent on you... rings and other jewelry, gifts, flowers, cards. Oooops! I misunderstood the question... forget everything I wrote above! You will never know the truth if a man is serious about you from his mouth. Also you will never know the truth from his wallet. And you will never know the truth by how 'nice' he is to you while you are dating. WARNING1: THE WRITING BELOW MAY BE JUST THE RANTING OF A BITTER OLD MAN. The world is made up of all types of people, but in that large eclectic group there are some categories we can discern. For men, we have the gay, the bisexual, and the straight (heterosexual) categories. Then we have the introvert, the extrovert, and the ambivert (what we like to call a middle-of-the-road-o-vert). Then there are the baby-makers, the wannabe baby-makers, and the 'probably-will-never-make-a-baby...ers'. Narrowing these down, let's discuss the types of men who will be approaching you. First thing to understand is that God programmed all men to naturally have a drive to procreate to populate the Earth. One of the oldest complaints women have is, "Is that all you ever think about?!?". And happily for the sake of the continuation of the human race, the answer for many men is, "Yes... that, and grown-up toys like fast cars, boats, etc." Again... men are after one thing and one thing only... sex. Everything else we do is just to fill the time in between those 'procreative encounters of the third kind'. Men don't need women for anything else. Friends? Go take a hike! We got plenty of other men to be friends with... and men friends can shoot hoops with you, help rebuild an engine, discuss the destructive firepower of various firearms, and help till the garden. And none of our men friends will ever demand a single flower from us, will never require 'snuggle-time' with us, will never require us to buy them an expensive dinner out. As a matter of fact, if we started buying gifts for our men friends to prove to them how much we care about them, we'd probably get beat up by those same friends. At the very least, we'd be ostracized very quickly. Keep that contrast in mind to help understand men's motivations. No man buys flowers for a woman because he wants to. He buys the flowers because it keeps you smiling and happy. And it is easier to get you naked if you are happy. No man buys jewelry or other trinkets and baubles for a woman because he wants to. He buys them because he knows it will keep you smiling and happy. And it is easier to get you naked if you are happy. No man buys an expensive meal at a restaurant for a woman because he wants to. But he will take you out, and spend tons of money on a meal because he knows it will keep you smiling and happy. And it is easier to get you naked if you are happy. Men are programmed to get the honey from the honey pot. Some have a stronger programming than others but we all have it. It's guaranteed that within 90 seconds after climax (right when you want to do the snuggling) we are wondering if we left that 1/4 inch wrench on the workbench or did we put it back in the toolbox? Or some similar thought that has little to do with what you and he had just 'shared'. Now, to avoid making it sound like all is lost -- that no man will ever truly be 'serious' about you, here is additional insight. Men don't need women for "friends"... but you can become a friend. Although we have a primal urge to sow the oats anywhere and everywhere, many men do have a concept of honor, integrity, and loyalty. It is that which moderates our primal urge to procreate. So... how can you tell if a man is really serious about you? Here's how... 1. Understand that initially a man flirting with you is serious about getting you naked (blame that on God, not the man. But really that's how our human race is still here! So it is not really a blame, but instead it is just the way it is). 2. Ask who was his girlfriend last week, or last month, or last year. No matter what a man's mouth is saying, if he was with someone else last week or last month, you are just the next notch on his headboard. Again... if he was with someone else last week or last month, YOU are just the next NOTCH on his HEADBOARD. 3. If he seems like a great catch, handsome and a good conversationalist, why is he single? The old folks had a lament that "All the good ones are married!" And that lament is true... or almost true. Most of the good ones are married or involved with someone else... because THEY ARE the good ones. If he is handsome and a smooth talker, but hasn't been married or in a long term relationship for a long time it is usually because he is not serious (remember, that was your question). 4. If the words, "My wife doesn't understand me..", or the words, "My girlfriend doesn't understand me...", or the words, "My wife is a bitch!", or the words, "My girlfriend is a Bitch!" ever come out of his mouth while he is sweet-talking you, RUN! You are being played BIG TIME. Honor, loyalty, honor, loyalty. Big items for an upright man. A sense of honor and a sense of loyalty control the primal urges of a decent man. What he is saying now about her, he'll be saying three months from now about YOU, to his next 'notch' target. Now, about a man's words. The old folks had a saying that actions speak louder than words. The next time he brings you flowers, say to him, "Honey (or whatever his name is), I really like the flowers but if you really care about me would you volunteer some hours at the local homeless shelter in lieu of flowers to me? The next time he wants to take you out to an expensive dinner, say to him, "Honey (or whatever his name is), I really appreciate the offer to go to dinner, but the local playground has been needing new playground equipment for years. If you really care about me, would you take that 'dinner' money and help me start a fundraiser to raise the money for new equipment? We can work on it together." The next time he wants to buy some jewelry for you, say, " Honey (or whatever his name is) I really appreciate your desire to adorn me in pretty things, but if you really care about me let's take that money and go buy kids' toys and then donate them to the Marine Corps Toys For Tots program. We can do that together. The next time he comes over and just wants to "hang out" with you, say, "Honey (or whatever his name is) I really appreciate that you want to spend some time with me. But let's not just sit around at my house. Old widow Jones who lives across the street is too old to mow her lawn and she's been paying Bob to mow it every week. But she is only getting Social Security and she doesn't really have that money to spare. Instead of us sitting around my house, let's grab a mower and go mow widow Jones's lawn for her-- free of charge. We can do that together. I could go on and on with more examples... think some up yourself. In other words, make him do something for somebody else -- to demonstrate his true seriousness about you. Most 'players' don't have the time for "do-gooder" shenanigans and they will move on to an easier 'notch' target. After all, it is much easier to just grab some paper from your wallet and trade it to some guy for some flowers that you had no part in tending, watering, or fertilizing and carry them over to some chick's house, and hand them to her with a big smile on your face as if you've really done something and sweet talk her for the rest of the night on her couch until she finally gives in and opens the honey pot. And finally, again, you will never know the truth if a man is serious about you from his mouth. Here are some comparative examples of what someone whom is "serious" would say juxtaposed with what a non-serious "Player" would say. SERIOUS: "Honey I love you. You mean the world to me. I can't stop thinking about you!" PLAYER: "Honey I love you. You mean the world to me. I can't stop thinking about you!" SERIOUS: "I want to spend the rest of my life with you!" PLAYER: "I want to spend the rest of my life with you!" Can you tell the difference? No? That's what I mean... you will never know the truth if a man is serious about you from his mouth.

How do you make homemade food for your hamster?

In the wild all of the hamster species eat a variety of seeds, plants and insects. We can give our pet hamsters all of the nutrients they need by giving them a varied and balanced diet.

The main part of your hamster's diet should consist of a good quality hamster mix. As with us, foods containing lots of artificial colours and additives won't do your hamster any good. I have seen hamster mixes containing bright purple biscuits and bright yellow popcorn. This sort of hamster mix is best avoided. Your hamster can be fed a wide variety of fruit and vegetables. Give your hamster a small piece of fruit or vegetable daily. Don't give your hamster citrus fruits or onions as these foods are very acidic and will give your pet an upset stomach. Instead, have a look at the following list and see how much variety you can treat your hamster to. All of the fruit and vegetables offered to your hamster should be well washed to remove any residue of dirt or pesticides. Drain off surplus water and present the goodies to your pet.

  • Grapes
  • Melon
  • Kale
  • Cucumber
  • Sweetcorn/corn on the cob
  • Peas
  • Carrots
  • Apple
  • Banana
  • Celery
  • Grass
  • Broccoli
  • Cauliflower and Cauliflower greens
  • Dandelion leaves
  • Beansprouts

In the wild your hamster would also eat insects. You can provide the protein that your hamster needs by giving your pet any of the following foods.

  • Dry cat food (poultry kitten kibble is ideal)
  • Cooked chicken or turkey
  • Crickets or mealworms (live, canned or freeze-dried)
  • Scrambled or boiled egg

Is a hamster smellier than a guinea pig?

Guinea Pigs are MUCH larger than Hamsters and since their excrement (droppings) and cleaning habits and so on are similar - one could conclude that they smell the same.

BUT if you do not clean their habitat often enough, THEN a Guinea Pig's Cage/Terarium would be Smellier than a Hamster's - SINCE they would have a larger amount of droppings (both in size and amount) and there would be more excrement in their enclosure.

Is hamster better than lizard?

It depends. If you have the time to actually sit down and TRAIN the dog, and you enjoy going for walks, playing with animals, maybe get a dog. On the other hand, if you don't like to do or you don't have time to do the things above, get a hamster!

What happened when i dropped your baby hamster on the wood floor will it be okay?

It depends on how height you dropped him from. If you dropped him from the top of Big Ben, that would be a problem. If you dropped him from a chair or so, that wouldn't be much of a problem. Dropping a hamster I don't think can hurt her pregnancy.

What to do if your hamster is lost?

I suggest closing or blocking off all exits out of the garage then removing any or all food items if possible and placing a non harmful food trap- clean the area up a bit and make sure the garage is a stable temperature; not too cold.

Do hamsters eat crickets?

Yes, they can. Even though a lot of people think that hamsters are herbivores, but they are actually omnivores. In the wild, they eat loads of soft invertebres including crickets, and mealworms. They love to eat crickets. If you are going to give your hamster bugs, give them dead ones. Giving your hamster live bugs to kill and eat, this will make your hamster untamed, and you can never tame it again.

Is a golden hamster better then a dwarf hamster?

yeah!!

A Syrian hamster? I don't think so. They are fatter, bigger, and meaner, in my opinion. I like dwarf hamsters because they are small and cute, and fast, and they have a little stripe down their back. They are also very tame and sweet, most of the time. Sometimes they can be snippy, but not all of the time.

Only robo's. They are a different species to all other hamsters, so the babies may have health problems, will definitely be infertile and there is no certainty that the parents will actually mate.

Why did my baby dwarf hamster suddenly die?

First answer: By not taking care of the animal properly.

More info: Lots of people think they know about rabbits when really they don't. Someone might have given you very bad advice about how to care for your bunny. When you get a new pet, you should always do research on your own, and look for agreement between multiple sources!

Baby rabbits often die because they were taken away from their mothers too early.

Another reason rabbits often die young because they aren't eating the right diet. Rabbits have very sensitive digestive systems, and they can get sick and die very suddenly.

In addition to taking proper care of your rabbits, you should watch them every single day for early signs of illness. Rabbits hide their problems because they are prey animals. Most rabbit sicknesses are treatable by the vet, but if they don't get treatment, the bunny will die a painful death.

See the related questions below to find out how to take care of a rabbit.
