Hamster

I'm a cute little rodent with really big pouches in my cheeks. They are the only way I can carry things back to my nest when walking on all fours. My cheeks make my head look much bigger! But I love seeds so much that I have to hoard them in case I ever run out!

I also like to burrow and dig. I like to make several entrances into my nest.

I'm sure you'll enjoy watching me run on my hamster wheel. I plan on being a long distance runner in the Olympics! So please give me a nice new home, with lots of toys to keep me occupied...and seeds! Must have seeds!

Your pet becomes an expert at finding its own food!

When you are small enough that major predators just take pity on you, and you can’t see as far as the mirror you are trying to recognise yourself in, familiar well-worn paths are all you ever venture on, and then you go as fast as you can to make sure nobody spots you before you spot them, because you can’t see them anyway …

The only safe way for tiny rodents and other miniature four-legged creatures to compete with one another is to go nowhere fast. Once the word leaked out about hamster wheels, everypet from geckos to beavers liked the idea. So now the big event for small creatures is wheel racing. If you have never heard about it, that’s because you were too big to notice!
