About Hamsters
|
|
Hamsters make good beginner pets, as they are fairly easy to care for. Hamsters are friendly and when handled often; they become quite tame. Some will show acknowledgement of their owners, eagerly looking for treats when approached. A hamster that has not been handled enough while young may not be as friendly and may not wish to be held and may even bite, Whereas a hamster that has been handled frequently from a very young age usually remains docile and rarely bites. Hamsters are warm blooded mammals and are nocturnal. There are many different types of Hamsters, but only a few can be pets.
