Handling a pet requires responsibility and commitment. It is not as simple as you might think it is.  Animals are like us humans that have basic needs which the pet owner should provide to make their pets happy and contented. Well, one of the common pets we can find at home nowadays is the hamster. Hamsters are attractive and friendly pets that most parents prefer to get for their youngsters.

Hamsters are largely furry so they are very cuddly and cute. Not only are they cute, but they are also fun to look at because of their fast movement and bright eyes. Even by just observing them inside their hamster cages your day will surely brighten up. There are many kinds of hamsters that you can choose from and these hamsters have different characteristics that you should learn so that you will know how to handle your chosen breed.

The most common types of hamsters are the Dwarf hamster and Syrian or Golden hamsters. A Dwarf Hamster is smaller than a Syrian Hamster. A dwarf hamster has short hair and is very energetic which makes it difficult to train at times because you can rarely hold them for they will readily jump off your palm. Of course, when tamed early they can be taught how to walk along your shoulders or remain in your palm. It is suggested to use gloves when taking them for the first time because Dwarf hamsters will feel nervous the first time you hold them.

On the other hand, Syrian hamsters are bigger in size and are less difficult to tame or handle even though they are anti-social to other hamsters if placed in the same hamster cage. They have longer hair which makes them cute to look at. If you also plan to train them to walk around your body, then you should put them in any part of your body then allow them to run around. If they decline to walk around then pick them up again and repeat the process so they will get used to it. It might take 2 to 3 weeks for them to do the routine perfectly.

Both hamster breeds can be considered a good pet because they are harmless compared to other pets. You might get bitten once or twice but it seldom happens as long as you play with them or train your hamster to behave well.

Show full responsibility and dedication in taking care of your pet and you will have fun spending time with your pet hamster.

Is Getting One Dog or Two Dogs At a Time Better?

When getting a new dog or puppy, one always thinks…should I get another dog to keep him company? Training and owning multiple dogs is different from training and owning one dog at a time.

Anatomy of a Hamster

Edit Article |

The hamster is a rodent that we can find in different parts of the world. At present, a lot of people buy hamsters to be their home pet. Hamsters are fascinating, lovable and very lively. They are nocturnal animals that are solitary in nature. They’d rather be alone than to be with other hamsters.

In General, hamsters are very small. They range only from 2-11 inches in size and they can only weigh up to 900 grams in weight which is why they can easily be kept in hamster cages. A hamster is often used in a research or experiments because some parts of their body are similar to us humans. They are like guinea pigs that are used as laboratory animals.

Pet hamsters are often studied in their sensory systems like taste and vision. They are utilized by scientists looking for a cure of certain diseases such as pancreatic cancer, cardiopulmonary disease and other similar ailments. Hamsters multiply fast and mostly disease-free that is why scientists like to use them for experiments. Furthermore, their cardiovascular system is almost similar to a human being that is why experimentations are done to find treatment to most cardiovascular diseases.

Physically, you can notice that hamsters have fat bodies with cheek pouches on the sides of their heads. They also have very strong legs and wide feet. They use their cheek pouches to keep the food they have gathered. Their teeth continuously grow that is why they need to chew on objects or food to stop their teeth from growing very long which can affect their health.

The internal parts of hamsters mainly consist of skull, jaw, teeth, limbs and tail.  Their sense organs are mouth for tasting, nose for smelling, eyes for seeing, ears for hearing and skin for touching. A hamster’s average life span is 2-2 ½ years but can reach up to 3 & ½ years depending on the breed.

Experts say that hamsters have poor eyesight and are tend to be color-blind but then their sense of hearing is very well developed and their nose can distinguish different scent which can make up for their poor vision.

A hamster is a great pet to take care because they are sociable to humans and can be easily trained or tamed. Some breeds are generally sweet so you won’t have difficulty trying to get them to like you. Prepare a hamster cage now for your pet hamster to live in. Just make sure to choose the correct hamster cage which can make your hamster feel lucky and satisfied.

Advices for the purchase of the hamster and the cage

The proper position of the hamster cage

The right choice of the hamster cage location could essentially contribute to his normal development and good disposition. By all means, you should find a place under the lee where there is no draught and the cage is not directly exposed to the sun. The bright light will not only irritate the animal when he is in half sleeping condition and leaves his shelter for a short with closed eyes, but the sunbeams will warm his sleeping house more than it needs.

You also shouldn’t keep the hamster near heating devices – the too warm and dry indoor air during the winter season is not healthy for him.

We recommend the golden hamster to be breed in indoor temperature between 19-23 ° while the mini hamsters feel better at 18-21 °. The considerably low temperatures hamper the activity of the hamsters. Then they withdraw into their house-bedroom where in the thick nest they take care alone about the warmth and cosiness they need.

Also you shouldn’t keep a T.V. or a radio next to the hamster which are always turned on. The hearing of the hamster is very is so acute that he could get into a panic with a high irritability.

If you conform with all these small matters, for you will be easy to enjoy the fresh stir of the hamster in one quiet corner.

Advices for the purchase of the hamster

If you do not have any friend that can give you a hamster from his litter, you could acquire your favourite pet from almost every zoo shop during all times of the year. Today, the dwarf and Chinese hamsters are more and more distributed. Anyway, if you cannot find your race at the zoo shop you can always order him.

In your dream of breeding a hamster you should be critical in your purchase. Spare the time for it and do not be in a hurry. The late afternoon is the best time for hamster purchase because at this time of the day they brisker and could be estimated better and easier. Immediately after that during the time of the active period when the new home of the hamster is in a process of equipping you could start gaining his trust. In order to secure a healthy and smart animal at his purchase, you should consider the following important issues:

1)As a rule the tradesman keeps the animals in unwonted for hamsters strongly lighted crittertrail without any house in order the buyer to have a better look over them. Quite often they are huddled together for warmth and protection.

2)Ask the experienced tradesman to wake up all the hamsters and show it to you. Even animals that are woken up from a deep slumber at this time are supposed to lose their sleep and demonstrate their curiosity. The tail of the very little animals that looks bigger, in a healthy and mobile condition keeps standing. The eyes don’t have to be closed although the little organism of the hamster has been exposed to the stressful conditions of the environment just before minutes. While the healthy golden and mini hamsters with a smooth hair must have a shining fur, the fine, silk velvet fur-coat of the fluffy golden hamster should not look clotted and dry without any brilliance. All exceptions to this mean a bad nutrition and poor state of health.

3)The tiny and healthy excrements of the hamster are stiff and dry so the fur of his rump. If it isn’t so or even you notice any signs of diarrhea, you should completely decline buying the animal. In all probability all the hamsters are infected.

4)Closed eyes of the hamster, still more excreting secret, also should prevent us buying the pet. You are free to ask the tradesman about that. Good zoo shops keep to the requirements of hygiene and protection so you’d better find such place.

As a conclusion we want to give you one more advice of different nature.If you buy hamster for first time ask to show you how to keep him in your hands. Very often the little and very brisk hamster is extremely active and falls down from our inexperienced hands still while you examining and estimating him in the shop. Such a falling from above on the hard floor could easily wound the tender body of the hamster.

Are you ready to take the next step in taking care of your pet hamster? Do you already know how to breed them so they can produce more hamsters? Aside from monitoring the development of your pet hamsters and playing with them regularly, there will surely come a time when your pet hamster would long to have his own family. It would search a mating partner and of course have their cute offsprings. They’d enjoy seeing 10 little cuties asking for their mom’s milk. As expected, pet owners particularly kids would also enjoy and get excited to see little hamsters come out. However, before that time comes, you must be ready enough to take on more tasks and learn more about hamster breeding.

For first time breeders, it is wise to follow the conventional way of breeding which is breeding a hamster with one of its own breed. Just leave the cross breeding to expert breeders because they are the only ones who can best perform cross breeding. If you have a pet dwarf hamster partner, look for a male dwarf hamster and let them mate. Some hamsters are anti-social when it comes to dealing with fellow hamsters so make sure to introduce them early. Hamsters are less solitary when it comes to relating with same breed inside the same hamster cage.

Animal experts say that hamsters begin to get sexually active at the age of 6 weeks but then they are still too young to do so this often results to cannibalism. Of course you wouldn’t want your pet to eat their or harm their babies right? Make sure to stop them from mating at this early. The best age for a hamster to conceive a baby is when they reach 2-3 months old but not longer than 6 months because this may result to some birth complications.  Monitor the age of your hamster so you will know the best time to breed.

If you are interested to know how many time females hamsters give birth then the answe is only two to three times. You need to wait 3-4 months before you can breed them again.  Just like human beings, female hamster’s body need to heal and recover after the antagonizing process of giving birth. You can expect about 2 babies per birth and very seldom it can produce 3 babies. You are very lucky if this happens.

Now if are about to begin breeding your hamsters, then you should remember that hamsters are mostly unsociable so you should be prepared to separate them inside hamster cages upon noticing that they are not comfortable with one another. Make sure to use your protective gloves in separating them for you might get bitten. If they connect well, then leave them for about 15 minutes then part them afterwards or upon seeing that they are losing interest.

Reading helpful guides and articles about hamster breeding is very critical so you can properly breed your hamsters.

Is it really essential to understand your pet’s behavior? Have you done a research before buying the pet you have now? Well, before buying a pet you should first learn their behavior so that you will know how you can adjust to them and how to handle them well. Experts say that knowing your pet’s natural behavior is the key to a stress-free and well-balanced relationship with your pet. It is essential that you build good relationship with your pet hamster so you will have fun together.

Hamsters are like other pets that have unique behavior which the owner should be aware of. It is not enough that you see hamsters as cuddly and cute but you should also know how to handle them and even tame so they won’t bite you.

Are you aware that hamsters are solitary in nature? A hamster doesn’t like to live in a cage with fellow hamsters. They like to be alone although there are breeds like Dwarf hamsters that can live in pairs or groups as long as they are introduced to other hamsters early. In the first three to four weeks of life, young hamsters are usually driven away by their moms to be on their own. Hence, they are used to getting things their way and do not depend much on other hamsters.

Hamsters are generally clean and odorless compared to other pets. They usually separate their bed with their eating containers and even make a separate space for them to play. They are not used to appearing dirty so owners must see to it that the objects inside their hamster’s cage is well-organized so that their pet will enjoy its stay inside the cage.

A hamster is also nocturnal which means they are asleep during the days and awake at night. At nighttime, they like to play, make some noise and do their stuff. Make sure to put their hamster cage in a portion of your home where you and your family will not be disturbed when sleeping.

Hamsters also love to dig holes and stay in tunnels. That is why cage accessories like artificial tunnels with several chambers were made. Hamsters can play and crawl within the tunnel. You can purchase these tunnels in different pet stores and these are available in various shapes, sizes and colors. Make sure the tunnel you chose will fit inside your hamster’s cage.

Most of all, hamsters like to chew or nibble just about any food or object that they can take hold of. To keep them in good condition make sure to remove objects that can injure your pet and give them only healthy foods. You can also buy accessories like a “chewer” that you can present to your pet hamster to nibble.

You can now purchase your own pet hamster since you already know their different characteristics. Be a great pet owner and take good care of your pet hamster.

Are you ready to take home your newest pet hamster? Did you already purchase a hamster cage for your pet before bringing it home? Well, before buying a pet hamster, it is important that you already got the best cage for your hamster. Remember that your pet needs to live in a stress-free environment in order for it to stay happy and remain healthy. Getting the right cage is a great way to make your hamster feel comfortable, happy and contented.

There are many kinds of hamster cage that you can find in pet stores. Hamster cages are available in different styles, color and size. In selecting the best hamster cage for your pet, here are several tips that you should follow.
1.) Ideal size
Find out what breed your hamster is and how big it is. Depending on the type of hamster, some hamsters can be smaller than the others if it is quite small then you can find a much smaller cage compared to the bigger ones for large hamsters. However, make sure that the cage is not very small for your pet. Dwarf hamster should be placed in small or moderate-sized hamster cages. You can purchase a cage with the size of ½ feet in floor area and 1 foot tall. On the other hand, golden hamsters certainly would require a larger place to live in.  
2.) Clean and spacious cage
Some cages already carry a lot of accessories inside which sometimes make it looked cramped. Hamsters love to roam and run around so it is essential to have a spacious and clean cage without unneeded accessories. Some objects might hurt your hamster so make sure to get rid off it. You should also choose a cage that is easy to clean and with less attached objects.
3.) Safety and security
Another essential factor to consider when selecting a cage is the design which can be harmful or unsafe to your pet. Some cages are barred and have small spaces to protect a hamster from slipping out of the hamster cage. You have to pick out carefully from the various variety of barred cages because some hamsters are very small and may incidentally slip or get stuck in spaces between bars. It is also recommended to choose aquarium or plastic modular cages.
4.) Ventilation
Breathing air is also essential for hamsters to remain healthy hence it is essential to purchase a cage with proper ventilation. Proper ventilation implies having sufficient air enter inside the cage to avoid getting your hamster suffocated.

Obey all the tips mentioned so that you can pick out the best hamster cage where your hamster can live in and remain happy and healthy.

Hamsters are animals that belong to the rodent subfamily of Cricetinae. They are known to active at night or during twilight. . They are asleep during the day and are alive at twilight. Hamsters are nowadays by and large taken in households as pets. They are fantastic pets because they do not need high maintenance, they are inexpensive and most of them are harmless even to children. However, hamsters are solitary or antisocial animals. They detest being surrounded by fellow hamsters. Thus, they should be kept alone in their cage to avoid being violent.

Hamsters are said to originate in the Middle East and Southern Europe. The first hamster was found in 1839 by a British zoologist named George Waterhouse. The hamster seen is a female and was called “Cricetus Auratus”. It is regarded today as the golden hamster breed.

Then, a professor named Israel Aharoni of the University of Jerusalem found a hamster with 12 young hamsters in 1930 in the Syrian Desert. But then, only 3 of the hamsters remained alive upon reaching his laboratory. They are now the breed of Syrian hamsters. Hamsters started ot become popular when they were brought to England. Golden hamsters were also brought in the year 1938 in the US.

The term hamster came from the German word “hamstern” which means “to store” because hamsters like to collect and store food in their pouches.  Hamsters are available in different colors. There are white, brown, cream and gray hamsters. There are also several types of hamsters but the most popular are dwarf and Syrian hamsters. Hamsters also differ in the length of their hair; some have short hair while others have longer hair. They are also usually placed in hamster cages.

A lot of animal experts consider hamsters as good pets because generally they are harmless, friendly, cute and easy to take care of. If you plan to buy a hamster, then you should prepare a hamster cage so it can live comfortable inside his own cage. Keep your hamster healthy by taking good care of it and providing all its needs.

Who wouldn’t love to get a hamster as a pet? A hamster is considered one of the most favorite pets by children and adult alike. Hamsters are huggable, cute, friendly and energetic. They are also well known for their unique characteristics including their habit on chewing a lot. Hamsters nibble almost everything that they can get from plants to small insects. They are nocturnal so they are asleep during the day and are very much alive at night. But then, troubles arise if you allow your pet hamster to chew just anything they can snatch so make sure to manage what they are eating and provide them the right kinds of food. `

Like any other pets, a hamster should be given the nutritious food for them to remain healthy, alive and keep them away from illness. Veggies are among the healthy foods that you should provide to your hamsters. Give them various kinds of vegetables and not just one kind because they might suffer from diarrhea if they are feed only one kind of vegetable in a particular day. Cabbage, carrots and lettuce are among the vegetables that hamster love to eat.

Aside from vegetables, you should also include protein-rich foods in your hamster’s diet. Several pet stores sell pre-mixed foods that are rich in protein. Just make sure to buy the best and trusted brand of pet food. You can also give your hamster fruits once in awhile. You can provide him with banana, cherries or apple. But, remember not to give your pet too much fruits because some fruits contain too much sugar that is not good for your hamster’s body.

Milk is another treat that hamsters love and which you should give to your pet. Milk contains protein and vitamins that are great in making your hamsters remain healthy. Pregnant hamsters particularly love milk so make sure to give your hamster some milk to drink. Since hamsters are very lively and there are times when they might tip off their dish inside the hamster cage and spill the milk so make sure to buy a dish for your hamster that won’t tumble easily.

Another treat that you can give your pet is a hard-boiled egg. Hamsters love eggs and it will surely make them happy if you give them eggs to eat. However, do not forget to throw all boiled eggs left in the hamster cage after 24 hours because it might get contaminated with bacteria which can harm your pet.  Same with any other food for hamsters, eggs you must be given only occasionally.

Yeast is another high protein treat that pet hamster should be provided. Yeast help reduce stress for hamsters so it is highly recommended to give your pet one tablet of yeast every week.
Now, that you’re aware of the foods and treats that your hamsters should consume then it is time for you to be responsible to your pet, take good care of them and feed them right.

Nowadays most homes already got a pet inside. Some have dogs, cats or birds while others get hamsters as pet. Hamsters are becoming popular as household pet and even kids at home are now learning how to be responsible and take good care of their pet hamster.  Many people view hamsters as great pets because they are fascinating, friendly and fun. There are several other reasons why a hamster is a great pet. Listed below are the reasons why you should get a hamster as a pet.

1.) Hamsters are cheap and do not require high maintenance.
Unlike other pets that require expensive pet food, hamsters can eat different foods as long as they’re good for the body. Hamsters should be given a variety of vegetables, protein-rich foods, nuts, seeds and fruits. Fruits are suggested not to be taken too often because of the sugar content. In short, like humans, hamster should take vegetables to remain healthy. They also require low upkeep because they occupy little space and their mess can easily be cleaned up. You can just clean their cage 2-3 times a week.
2.) Hamsters are clean and easy to take care.
Hamsters are not as filthy like other pets and they can stay clean for several days. They can also easily adapt to their environment and can be tamed fast. Just make sure to buy a hamster that is not a biter so no family member will get harmed. But don’t worry too much because a lot of hamsters can now be easily domesticated or trained. especially if you play with them a lot.
3.) Hamsters like to play and are generally friendly.
Although hamsters are by nature antisocial but then once they get to socialize they can be social to us. They enjoy playing so make sure you add toys inside their cages and just watching them play will for sure make you smile. Hamsters can help lighten you up especially when you’re down because just by watching the hamster move around and looking into their eyes, you will already feel happy.
4.) Hamsters have pouches.
Hamsters got pouches on the side of their head for them to stock the food they collect. It is certainly fun to see them collect and hide food on their pouches.
5.) Hamsters do not require a lot of space.
A hamster can be kept in a hamster cage which does not use up a lot of space inside your home. Just make sure the cage is big enough for your hamster to move around, play and exercise. Hamsters need to exercise so make sure to give them an exercise wheel or running ball for the hamster to workout.

Hamsters are really great pets that household owners should consider caring for. Learning how to deal and take care of hamsters can make your pet handling easier and fun.

Would you like to get a pet for your home but still can’t decide on what to get? Why don’t you take care of a hamster? Hamsters are popular domesticated animals that are easy to handle, lively and fun to take care of. Just make sure to a healthy and nice breed of hamster so you won’t encounter a lot of problems.

There are certain guidlines that you should consider in selecting the best hamster before buying one. You cannot just purchase a hamster without knowing how to select one. Below are some tips that can help you choose the best hamster for you to take care as a pet.

1.) Find a hamster from a well-regarded pet store.

- Make sure to buy a hamster from a respected pet store and notice whether the pet store is clean and well-maintained. Check if all animals inside are healthy and none of them are ill. Like humans, animals can also easily be transmitted with viruses from other animals.

2.) Decide what type of hamster you want.
- Learn the different breeds of hamsters available inside the store and get to know their characteristics. There are 3 popular breeds of hamsters: Syrian, Dwarf and Russian Dwarf. Syrian hamsters are standard solitary hamsters that like to be alone. They tend to be violent if joined with other hamsters. On the other hand, Dwarf hamsters are tiny and can join other hamsters as long as they grow up with them. Thus, choose the type of hamster you want based on how big is your cage or how many hamsters would you like to get.

3.) Determine the health condition of the hamster you want to get.
- Healthy hamsters are lively and always run around. Look at their eyes and nose and see if they’re not running. The eyes should be bright and expressive while their whiskers and nose should be twitching most of the time. Besides, their fur should be dry and well-groomed. Check very well the hamster’s body and see to it that the hamster is not ill so you don’t have to spend money for the treatment and regret buying the hamster if it dies.

4.) Purchase a hamster late in the afternoon.

- The best time of the day to purchase a hamster is late in the afternoon. You will know right away if the pet is healthy or is sick. Apart from that, you should also observe if the employee of the pet store is not afraid to touch the hamster because if he is scared then that might mean that the hamster is a biter and is not suitable to be taken as a pet.

5.) Prepare the place where you will place your hamster.
- Before buying a hamster, ready the hamster cage first and make sure to place it in a good location. Bear in mind that hamsters are nocturnal animals so they sleep during the day and are active in the evening. Make sure the hamster doesn’t disturb you and your family at night.

The tips mentioned above can help you choose the best and healthiest hamster.
