My Little Petal - Chinese Hamster

Went into pets at home with my o/h to buy poo bags and some treats, came out with Petal, a female chinese hamster. She is so lovely and gorgeous.

Asking to help me decide whether or not to get one!:lol:

Females have to live alone otherwise they will kill each other, they rip out their intestines apparently :shock: Males can live together fine though but they didnt have any so we just had her. We had to pick her home with no bars because she could get through it. We are taking it back though because her water bottle leaks!
 
Gorgeous :love:

just thought I'd mention males shouldn't really live together, some can but they can be very aggressive towards each other like females. Also she may not like being put in a ball, some chinese hams hate them and some get freaked out when put in them so just keep an eye one her :)
 
she's lovely! what a pretty face!

i'm on a long-term hamster quest. about four years ago my special hamster, fluffy, died. she was big (as long as my hand), had very long hair and a very sweet nature. she was orange-ish. her mother was even bigger, a scary-looking black long-haired hammie. as well as being totally beautiful, fluffy was the friendliest, most characterful hamster i've ever had.

she had a pretty face, too. :D
