Re: anyone have a hamster?

I don't have a hamster, but a couple sugar gliders. They are smaller than your hamsters and look like tiny flying squirrels. They are gray with black stripes and nocturnal. They love fresh fruit and veggies and eat their size in food everyday. They hate cold air. They spend their day snuggled against each other, but when I feed them one will butt in and take the food from the other. Kind of a bit of sibling rivarly. I started out "babysitting" them temporarily in March and now have them at least through January so I'm feeling like they are mine. The thing about Alice and Zoe though is that because they are nocturnal I don't see them a lot. I can hear them at night though.

What are your favorite things about your hamster?

Re: anyone have a hamster?

That's the thing about pets. They are there for us and rely on us. If we give them time and attention, we can form some wonderful connections.

I have never had a hamster, though probably every other pet you can imagine. Dogs, Cats, Parrots, all kinds of birds fish and turtles. So I understand you are so close to your little pet. I am sure you love him and he is cute. Right now we have a mutt dog we adopted, a budgie and a turtle. The turtle eats out of our hand, he is so funny and all he wants to do is eat. so anyway, yes pets are fun. I would make sure though that chocolate will not hurt Bogey. I know that sweets are not good for pets most of the time.

Re: anyone have a hamster?

I used to have a fancy hamster named Groucho. He was so fat and grumpy. I had three dwarf hamsters at one time in his cage and he killed them all.

Well apart from cats I have a cat that will trip me up if I don't feed him at the "right" time, then he will go out all day get dirty and sit on my lap and have a good clean.
Tut cats.

Re: anyone have a pet?

I'd love a hamster. I'd name it Rex

I have a horse named Buddy and a Labrador puppy named Saffron. I also have an 8 year old Bull Arab (dog) named Missy.

Re: anyone have a pet?

I have two sweet dogs, one named Jack and one named Bandit. We also have a beautiful old friend in heaven named Oggie.

I love the ability to look them right in their warm brown eyes and see right into their souls. I love to sit with them in the yard and brush them. They love that.

They also have a way about coming to me when ever I need them, whether I realize it or not. Nothing like a sweet dog laying his head on your knee and being by your side.

I love to watch them run in the desert, where they can really stretch their legs and go! Both have very different personalities, and both are precious to me.

They say you will know when you are in heaven when all the dogs you have ever loved come to greet you at the gate...

Janet

Re: anyone have a pet?

I used to have 2 russian dwarf hamsters, they were viscious little things and had sharp teeth! I put up with it though because they were so cute

I'm not allowed pets in the house I'm renting, so I have two goldfish named after my two friends, Tom and Matthew lol. We're getting two catfish this week aswell!
