Hamster
- Hamsters need to live in a proper cage or tank which you can buy from the Pet Shop. You can get special bedding for them there too. Shredded up toilet paper is good if it is not coloured or scented. Their cage needs to be fully cleaned out once a week and new clean bedding put in. You don’t want their cage to get smelly (Yuck).
- They need to have fresh clean water which is normally given to them by a drinking bottle, so they don’t knock it over.
- They should be feed on special dried food from the Pet Shop along with some small treats like bits of carrot or apple. Don’t give them too much of this as they are very small and it might go a bit smelly if it sits in their cage for too long.
- Hamsters like to be awake at night and not in the daytime. This is called Nocturnal. Because of this they might not want to play much in the day. You might also want to keep the cage in a room where you are not trying to sleep. Much better downstairs.
- Hamsters are very small and can be very easily frightened. You must be very gentle when you handle them, so they don’t try and runaway or bite you.
- Hamsters can move very fast if they want to and can fit in very, very small spaces. Be careful if you take them out to play with them. Maybe get a big cardboard box and sit in that with them. They could get lost in the house and then nibble wires which would hurt them and break things in your house.
- Mainly Hamsters should live on their own as it is very hard to tell if they are a boy or a girl and you don’t want to end up with loads of Hamster babies.
