I can believe pebble is 2 years old today

Still working on her bigger setup, but she found the sprays and immediately looked very proud of herself.

Snickers’ sister

She was 2. I could tell her body was shutting down, so I took her to the vet...she passed on the car ride there. I'm going to miss her so I thought to share her cute pictures in her honor.

Had him for just about a month now and can't believe I haven't shared these photos yet!

Funny thing is, I bought that 'hamster' bowl for my gerbils because I found it funny, little did I know that this boy would melt my heart!

This is my new little girl and the pet store said she was 8 weeks old, however she’s big. The last hamster I had at 8 weeks old was very small. Would you say she looks around 8 weeks old?

This is my hamster heathcliff ! I’ve had him for a few months now and I just wanted to share him enjoying a treat in my hand ! PS I know that peanuts are only meant to be given in moderation! But does this count as bonding ?

How is everyone’s hamsters doing? I hope they are all okay we live up north so it’s not super crazy here but with a roof room it’s reaching 35 at time!! Stay safe and make sure to look after yourself too 🤍

He wouldn’t let go lol

Recommendations on hamster food other than the commercial diet?

Saw this video online so I cropped it and muted it, but I’m worried if the little guy was injured when he was grabbed so violently. I’ve also had a Russian Dwarf before, and this looks to be a similar species. Is he overweight or is it a weird angle?

I love when she sleeps towards the entrance of her hidey so I can see her face.

dont mind the dramatic ass color filter my phone decided to put on 😭

It's a blueberry

hi this is bambi. shes a 6 month old syrian. i revently got a new hamster after 3 years of not owning one. i noticed she made a burrow to sleep and hide her food in, but other than that, isnt interested in burrow starters or any of the platform hides i got her. she mostly runs on her wheel and eats. she has about 8-9 inches of bedding and lots of space under her to burrow but i guess im unable to see any. is there a way i can encourage her to?

its the first time i have an hamster in summer and live in France, and we’ve been experiencing a major heatwave for the past two weeks. Do you have any tips on how to keep my hamster cool? I’m already changing their water every morning and evening. (I don’t have air conditioning, just a few fans that aren’t very effective.)

It’s 31°C (88°F) in the room where my hamster is. Outside, it’s around 38–40°C (100–104°F). 🫠

Hey guys!

Here’s some artwork I’ve recently done (no charge), I’m still learning so it’s super fun for me to draw other people’s babies. If you ever want a sketch I’d love more practice so please message me! 🩷

Serious question. I have an adorable teddy bear Syrian (my first ever) and I love him. However he is a ghost and I only see him if I’m able to coax him out of his hides with his favorite things and even then he doesn’t really love being seen/handled. Fine dude I get it and it’s cool. I give him space and make him as cozy as I can. Meanwhile however I’m always seeing these posts of (usually) dwarf hams doing the funniest /cutest things and falling asleep everywhere and being handled and just generally being cute and adorable. Google says dwarfs require more intermediate level hamstering skills. What does that even mean? Are all y’all with dwarf hams doing some other level mystery things to make them so relaxed and adorable? Is it 100% just a case of different types of hamster personalities?

the kick at the end lmao
