Little known Hamster Care facts

You promise to clean there cage every week, put only the best hamster food in their bowel and give them fresh water. However, there are a few other things you need to know to inshore you are giving them a happy healthy full of love.
Hamster’s teeth grow continually; so they do not ware down to nothing. As a result, you need to give them good things to chew or their teeth may grow too long and the poor things will not be able to eat. Some are picky so you will need to try a variety of different chews. Natural is always best but as long as it says not chemically treated any chew is grate; Apple wood is one that has become a favorite for my pet. If you hamster’s teeth do become too long first call a vet but if there are not any that take hamsters you can use a pair of nail clippers to cut the teeth. They do not have nerves in their teeth but the vibration and situation are very scary for the little one.

a year ago (September 2007) i got 2 female dwarf roboski hamsters. As the pet keeper sed, they were. when i got home i played with them, fed them and baught them lots of toys. a few months later, one of my hamsters (Chloe) was acting very lazy. I was quite worried about her. I soon realised that she only came out of bed for food and water. i watched closely at them for quite some time. Silver (the other hamster) was fine.
The cage started to smell. I decided to clean it.
I took Silver out and put her inside her exesise ball. Then i got Chloe and put her into her spare cage to sleep. I took the top of the chained cage of and began to remove the toys. soon i took the bed out and to all of my surprise i found 4 tiny little hamsters. i rubbed my eyes. my jaw was wide open and i had frosen. They were babies.
I realised that Chloe was lazy because she was looking after this lot. :-) and Silver was actuelly a boy! i'll nvr trust a pet keeper again.
