my mom just scared the hamster 1-3 times and it got scared one time it rolled over quick next and next time he said something because the hamster was sleeping in his toilet can he ever get tamed?
Answers:
Just leave him alone for a couple of days. He should be fine
or one time I had a hamster who was tame and then one day he decided that he didn't like me any more he didn't come out for two weeks but when he came out again(after two weeks) he was one of the nicest hamsters I've had ( I've had four previously and at the moment I have six)
Good Luck!
Teddy Bears don't like loud noises or being scared. Try not to scare your hamster and gently pet it everyday, including your mom. Try not to bother your hamster in the morning. Hamsters are nocturnal so automatically if they are sleeping, they WILL get scared. So try not to bother your little guy!
they need to be left alone the first 2 days unless it wants to come out of its cage. They don't like sudden loud noises are to be startled when asleep, like us i guess. And get it an exercise ball at petsmart or petco to run in at night on your floor.

Another hamster question?
what do you need for a hamster example:we need a cage for a hamster like a hamster requirement
Answers:
Well your off to a good start. If you haven't already bought a cage i recommend critter trail cages, they have all different sizes. The cage should be mostly plastic, wire trays, ladders, and wheels can seriously injure your hamster. Exercise balls are great, they need their exercise in a safe place, also they love to hide, so any thing they can hide and sleep in is great. They also love to play so little balls and things keep them busy. Hamsters have to keep their teeth filed so wood chews are a requirement. Obviously a seed mix for food, treats such as hamsteroids, they are great for keeping their teeth down along with wood chews. Yogurt drops are great also it gives them good nutrition. Vitamins in the water are excellent! Bedding, the soft fluffy kind, they love to hide and sleep in it. Wood shavings for the bottom of the cage, make sure its nothing else besides Aspen shavings, they can die from any other type. Water bottles work much better then a water bowl, bowls can spill and if your hamster gets cold and wet it can die. Exercise wheels are a requirement also.One other thing is a litter box, you can litter train them. I hope i helped out some! Good Luck!
you also need a bowl for food
hamster food of course. usually carrots is a nice side food for hamsters they tend to like those and its good for them
a special water bottle made for hamsters (usually comes with cage)
some kinda chew toy for their teeth
and they make this grass like material to put in the hamsters cage
Ok, I have four guinea pigs, and a gerbil-among other critters.I am no hampster expert, but if I worked in a pet store, here is what I would recommend:
water bottle(oasis is good(brand))-one with ball in the tube)
If you have an aquarium, the bottle needs to either suction onto the cage or clip with a velcro type plastic device...if the cage is barred, then you can clip it on normally
hidey houses-wood
NO PLASTIC for hampsters-not safe
carefresh bedding-no pine or cedar(not safe for respiratory tracts)
shredded paper towel, t paper and tissue works well-as long as there is PLENTY
wooden chew toys(rodent section in pet sores)
timothy hay-shredding/bedding/fun -also can get brome hay, oat hay, or orchard grass
carboard boxes with holes cut in them for houses and toys
hampster food
I do not know about hampster diets unfortunately-treats? Not sure what they can eat for veggies and fruits
clay pots to hide in
food bowl-ceramic
clean cage with half water and vinegar solution-dry well-then reapply bedding as needed
That is all I can think of for now-make sure your water is not too cold when you give it to her/or him, may cause intestinal upset
also make sure it is purified water-no chlorine and stuff
I have a hamster and she has everything she needs. Your hamster needs a hamster ball to run around in, a wheel ( most cages provide this ) , food, fresh clean water,bedding, treats, and something to chew on. An empty toilet paper tube will work also. Hamsters love to chew on those! That's basically everything you need!
i have acage if you want it. It is wire, has a wheel, water bottle, and a food dish. $10
Some source of water and food.
Atleast two littles houses. The smaller one should be in the corner. Hamsters tend to pick a corner as their potty corner.
Fluff. NO wood shavings since they have oils on them that can cause health probelms.
I don't buy those expensive small little cages. No more for them to run.
What I do is I use those big plastic storage bins. Do not the put the top on.
Throw aleast like an inch and a half of fluff in because they love to tunnel. And a wheel for excerise but not a wire one because their feet can become caught and it can break their legs. You can buy silent wheels and they are actually quiet.
Any other questions feel free to email me.
1. its cage should be at least 24 inches long 12 inches wide and 16 inches high : their is different types of cages wire cages and glass cages (a glass cage is just a fish tank) my hamsters seem to prefer the wire type
2. water bottle and food dish(sometimes included in cage)
3. bedding(pay attention to the brand you get some are not good for hamster's)
4.biting toy so its teeth will not overgrow but you can also give it a dog biscuit(but only 2-3 times a week)
5.a block of salt(buy one at the pet store)
6.provide a sleeping box
7. a run about ball so it can play safely out side its cage. also provide other toys besides the wheel so your hamster wont get bored(for example a toilet paper roll)
for more info go to
www.hamstercare.co.uk
A cage, a water bottle/dish, food dish, bedding (NOT pine or cedar. Carefresh is a great choice), a wheel (manditory! one with a solid base (not wire)). Food (both hamster food and daily fresh fruits/veggies). A place for the hamster to hide/sleep.
Other things that aren't a requirement but are recommended are chew toys, a hamster ball, tunnels and hamster play sets. (You can buy these things at the pet store or you can make your own at home. Ex: toilet paper tubes)
a habitrail cage, or a metal one of that size is usually fine. You should get a box for him to sleep in, of course a wheel, water bottle and food dish... you can put a glass jar in his cage as well. they're suppiosed to use this for their toilets, but y dwarf used it to store food. to each his won, I guess.my dwarf loves to climb around and stuff, so you could put a ladder and an extra shelf in the cage

Another hamster question?
i have a 10 gallon tank that i keep my 2 syrnian hamster in and i was wondering if i could get toys to hook on the side and like tunnels to go around it
Answers:
Yah you could. I've had 150 hamsters and I always had them in glass cages because it is easiest. Hamster really love if you stick tunnels in their. Yah know what they like the best is paper towel rolls(empty of course) or toilet paper rolls. Because they loves to climb in them and they loves to chew them up. Also and little boxes like pop tart boxes or anything like that.
I use old toilet paper tubes, they love them, and are safe to chew, and they do sell a wheel that hangs on the side of tank,
There is a way, you get toilet papertubes and tie it to the side and they love to chew on toilet paper roles and they like to sleep in tube socks
if you go to any petshop they have wooden houses and tubes that you can just place in the tank, or you can buy those extened tank lids wich has a ramp that leads up the lid to more ramps , also helps ventaltion. but it costs a good 40$
Syrians should NOT be kept together. Also, tanks don't provide good housing because of ammonia build up which can kill them. You should buy a large wire cage and use toys such as toilet paper tubes, chew sticks which can be bought at pet stores, a running wheel [flat surface NO holes], hide treats around the cage to encourage foraging, every few days don't ue a food dish, sprinkle the food around a freshly cleaned cage so they can look for it like they would in the wild. Also get some hidey houses such as the plastic igloos sold at pet stores.
no you have to get the right cage to do that.
um yea u could probally,use like a really small chainsaw but take the hamsters out!
yeh at petsmart or petsco they have little houses for them or if you wanna decorate them like a house there's a mini couch a tv they can sleep in and these tubes that they love playing in;] and a wheel. my hamster loves running when everybody's asleep and it's dark hope that helps!:)
You can put anything in there that you think is safe to chew and he can't hurt himself on. They will play with it and explore it for hours or days. When they get bored of it, just drop someting else in!
just buy a crittertrail at petsmart, you can connect all the tubes you want. Aquariums are for fish, they breed bacteria and mold.

Another hamster question?
where do hamsters like to be petted
Answers:
All hamsters are different, but usually behind the ears or the back of the neck. Some like it when you stroke the sides of their faces. Some will even close their eyes and fall asleep in your hands! Good luck and have fun getting to know your pet!
there back or under their chin
All over if your luckily! Mine use to love having her rump scratched. But soon let me know if I'd gone to far, have permanent scars to prove it!
some times on thier belly but usually on their back.
anywhere
Gently along their back is their favorite!
Note*You should really stay away fom their heads they don't like that at all, unless your doing it under their chin! :]

Another hamster question?
have three dwarf hamsters (to black ones and a white/brown one) and they're in two different cages - the older black one with the white and brown one and obviously the small black one in a separate cage right next to the big one.
the reason they're separated because the small black one when into the big cage and the big black one followed her around and the small black one climbed on the edges of the cage and when i put my hand in the cage to give them fresh food, she climbed up my arm to get out. then last night, i put them both on my bed and let them climb around and the same thing happened, but they just walked around together until i heard a squeek and saw them fighting. so i put them in their separate cages again and right away they ran to the edges and chewed on the bars like they were trying to get back to each other, even though they didn't get along.
SOOOOO, the question is, in a couple days (probably tuesday) i'm getting a big cage (one of the ones with tubes and 2 levels and everything since they all seem pretty bored in their normal cages and the ball), would the small black one and the big black one that didn't get along stay away from each other in there or do you think they'd still fight?
Answers:
It is not advisable to house dwarf hamsters of different ages with each other. They need to be the same age to help avoid any fights. Since they have already fought once, why let this happen again by thinking about putting them together? Leave the younger one alone in it's cage and put the other 2 who already have been together in the new cage. Are they all females or some males? I wouldn't suggest breeding if you have both sexes. Dwarf hamster are even harder to get homes for then with the larger Syrian breed. Iknow this from experience and from visiting my favorite pet stor that used to sell them, but only could sell 1 or 2 a month verses 30+ Syrians a month.
We have a dwarf that was blinded and had half it's face torn off in a fight with his dad. They too had gotten along for months, but the son attacked the dad and lost, but lived. The dad has since passed, but the son will be 18 months Tuesday (6/5). They all were kept together from birth so it wasn't like they were just introduced.
I wanted to also let you know that dwarfs are prone to getting cancer and diabetes. The diabetes can somewhat be avoided through diet unless one of the parents already has it and passed the diabetes to the baby. They should never be fed any corn, peas, carrots, commercial treats, anything with any type of sugar (corn syrup, sugar, honey, or mollases), or any fruits. These foods are all to high either in natural sugar or with processed sugars. Out of the 28-30 dwarfs I've had in the last 3 years, we've had 12 with cancer all of them were related but 1 and she passed her gene for cancer to her offspring and some of them got it too. We decided to keep all the offspring of those who had cancer which was all of them. 7 are still living at nearly 18 months old. Think about how long they live too (1-2 yrs).
I've tried this before and it didn't work with my two dwarf hamsters. I think they have to be in the same litter or raised together in order to be in the same cage together. The two that already obviously don't like each other with start fighting again. I learned the hard way.
i dont think space is the issue.
in general, hamsters like to be alone.(i have only had teddy-bear hamters)
maybe they are breeding? or fighting for the attentions of the other hamster? if they are the same sex(all of them) they will continue to fight because no matter how big the cage is, they will smell eachother and see eachother occasionally.
it really sounds like they are male and female, though. look forward to babies!
Hamsters do not go together they like it alone they will kill each other and then you will only have one or none!

Another hamster question oh oh?
hi i have a question and here it is i got to syrine hamsters about 1 month ago and i got them a 10 gallon tank and it was good then but they are starting to chew on the cage and keep getting out on top i got a screened top that goes on it and everything but the question is can i connect tubes to a ten gallon tank or can i get a free cage any where in ga or like classifed adds thanks
Answers:
You don't need a new cage, honestly, unless you really want one. Just set a rock or a paperweight in the center of the screen top. If they can't lift it, they can't get out.
As for the chewing, yeah, they do that, it's normal. Try getting them some wooden chew sticks from the pet shop, to distract them from chewing the tank.
Edit: And if the hamsters were raised together from a young age, they can get along just fine.
Okay, first off, it's spelled Syrian, and THEY ARE SOLITARY HAMSTERS, WHICH MEANS THEY WILL KILL EACH OTHER IS KEPT IN THE SAME CAGE. You need to separate them now before one or both of them wind up dead.
I'm not sure exactly what your question is. You want to know if you can connect another cage to the tank using tubes? Yes, you can.
Please get another cage and separate the hamsters now!
Edit: Rustyredwhatever is wrong. It doesn't matter if they were siblings and were never apart, when they reach maturity, they will become very territorial between each other and they will fight to the death, no matter how much room you give them. You need to separate them before they begin to fight.
Look it up, any good hamster website will tell you the same thing: Syrian hamsters are solitary and need to be kept one to a cage.
look in the classified adds or go to like petco and get a 20 dollar hamster cage
have you ever heard of punctuation.
well, umm.you could buy the plastic tubes, and put them in the tank so they can have fun in there, i did that and i put a little house thing from my old cage at the top of it and they love it...so try buying tubes or use paper towel rolls and stick them together and put it in the tank
Try freecycle.org to ask for a freebie. Be sure to follow site guidelines for posting.
Syrian hamsters are solitary animals so they will fight to the death i would seperate them ASAP! I don't think you can attach tubes to the cage well you might be able to but i am not really sure! If they keep getting out of the cage then i would buy a new cage so they don't get hurt or anything!
Yeah I had syrains live together also Maybe you could tape the tubes together
no you need a crittertrail cage, aquariums breed mold and bacteria, and syrians live alone, they will kill each other after 3 months of age. aquariums have no cross ventilation, they are for fish.
My hamster bites on the bars on the cage it's normal it just means it wants to get out and our hamster escapes too but we put a book on top of it so the lid won't open.

Another hamster questiion?
hii am going to get 2 teddy beatr hamsters and i was wondering hoqw much do dwarf hamster cost at eather petco or petsmart i live in ga anyone know that will be helpful and i am getting 2 of wat ever i get
Answers:
They cost around $10 an animal. Please please PLEASE do not house the two animals together. Syrian (aka teddy bear hamsters) are solitairy animals and will not tolerate another animal around. They will fight (in the middle of the night) and injuries will occur.
Teddy's are about 8 dollars at Petco.
TP. Use a long string!
DO NOT house two Teddy Bear Hamsters together, or two Dwarf Hamsters together. But Hamsters do enjoy seeing one another every now and then. ^ ^ Dwarfs are usually a little more expensive around $13.00 where I live and Teddy Bears are around $7-8.00. It's just a matter of opinion, Teddy Bears sometimes live longer, but Dwarfs are usually hyper. Happy Hammie Hunting!
Usually teddy bear hamsters are half the price of dwarf hamsters. Petco usually sells dwarfs for $19.99 and teddy bears for $9.99. Also know that teddy bear hamsters are easier to handle than the dwarfs. Dwarfs are smaller and very cute, but are quite temperamental. They get territorial as they get older, so make sure you have a large enough cage that they can separate from each other. Good luck.
I got my two dwarf hamsters for about 5 bucks each. The girls are about 7 bucks. I recommend boys because they are much easier to handle and they aren't psyco like the girls. If you get boys then they have to come from the same cage if you want them to live together. Once you seperate them then if they come together they will rip each other to shreds.
I have a wonder dwarf hamster, Truffle, who was on sale for 10$ ive never seen one over 20$, but usually, dwarf hamsters are about 15$ good luck with your new hammies!
teddy bear hamsters on average are about $10. dwarfs can range from $10-$20. do not buy a metal cage; hamsters can sometimes squeeze between the bars and get out, or get stuck/ingured. i recommend buying a plastic Habitrail, they are safer, fun, and very colorful. the 2 story ones are cool because then its more like a little hamster house. you can buy all sorts of connection tubes and accessories, so get creative! let your imagination run wild! lol and enjoy those hamsters. *鈥?鈥? %26lt;----hamster face.isnt it cute?? lol

They cost around $10 an animal. Please please PLEASE do not house the two animals together. Syrian (aka teddy bear hamsters) are solitairy animals and will not tolerate another animal around. They will fight (in the middle of the night) and injuries will occur.
Teddy's are about 8 dollars at Petco.
TP. Use a long string!
DO NOT house two Teddy Bear Hamsters together, or two Dwarf Hamsters together. But Hamsters do enjoy seeing one another every now and then. ^ ^ Dwarfs are usually a little more expensive around $13.00 where I live and Teddy Bears are around $7-8.00. It's just a matter of opinion, Teddy Bears sometimes live longer, but Dwarfs are usually hyper. Happy Hammie Hunting!
Usually teddy bear hamsters are half the price of dwarf hamsters. Petco usually sells dwarfs for $19.99 and teddy bears for $9.99. Also know that teddy bear hamsters are easier to handle than the dwarfs. Dwarfs are smaller and very cute, but are quite temperamental. They get territorial as they get older, so make sure you have a large enough cage that they can separate from each other. Good luck.
I got my two dwarf hamsters for about 5 bucks each. The girls are about 7 bucks. I recommend boys because they are much easier to handle and they aren't psyco like the girls. If you get boys then they have to come from the same cage if you want them to live together. Once you seperate them then if they come together they will rip each other to shreds.
