Hamster Clubhouse

Hi all,

My 6 month old Syrian hamster, Marshmallow, is sick. I noticed a little bit less activity from him late last week but didn’t think much of it until it had been a couple of days because he’s always been fairly lazy (rarely uses his wheel). He also hadn’t eaten the food and treats I left ...

He’s white with like brownish ticking on the tips of his fur. Also can we just appreciate how fluffy he is?!

My baby hamster who I got only a month ago died today. He was the sweetest boy and I already miss him dearly. In his nest I found a piece of a chew toy. One of the toys that is pieces of wood, loofah, paper etc strung onto a piece of sisal string. I saw it and checked, the fibres of the string are ...

I found a really lovely male that I want sooo baddd. He’s fairly young but he is so so sleepy. Like last night we saw him and we picked him up and he fell asleep in our hands and just sat there. He looks outwardly healthy. He has been handled a ton and is in a small enclosure with basically no ...

So I got my adorable male Syrian hamster a week and half ago. He is literally so sweet, will climb into my hand and fall asleep on me. I love him. He is completely obsessed with gerber baby puffs though. Like he’s gotten used to me giving him one a day to get him used to associating me with good ...

I am going to be getting a Syrian hamster soon and need to decide if I should get a female or a male.
Which is more likely to thrive in a 4’x2’x2’ diy enclosure? Should I err on the side of caution and get a male? Is the enclosure big enough to potentially keep a female Syrian happy? The last female ...

I’m going to be adding a little Syrian hamster to the family soon and I’m so excited HOWEVER I am on a budget. I have a 4’x2’x2’ wooden DIY enclosure and just bought a niteangel wheel. I also will pick up bedding when I can. How many litres does it take to have enough for the cage? I found a 170L ...

Hoping for some help here.
My hybrid dwarf hamster, Hazel has fur loss on her lower back/butt. I just noticed while cleaning her cage today.
I’ve been using the same food and bedding since I got her in January (food has been frozen, bedding hasn’t) so idk how she’d get mites.
She’s very ...

I have had my Syrian for two years, and he has gotten better, but still hides and runs when he hears me around. Hamsters are solitary animals and have only been domesticated for less than 100 years, so it's natural for them not to like human contact. Robos especially are known to be timid, so ...
