Can't do right for doing wrong really can you. No matter what people do there will always be those stood there to criticised.
I always try not to judge when I do post on any forum, as there are enough people on here to get the ball rolling and many more who will jump on the bandwagon.
As Dominique has said, there is not as such a problem in this area with people disposing of their pets. I have more enquiries about trying to tame thier pets, rather than looking for pets. However, I do keep being let down by those adopting.
I am sure Elaine will pass more on to me as time passes. Many people would much rather sell hamster with cage, which I have no problems with, so long as the price puts people off looking for fresh meat for their snake.
Even after getting these new guys, I have offered to help Alice, by taking a couple from her for me to rehome up here, if someone can do a hammy run. I have also been helping with adoption forms etc. via Teflons shadow.
I did a lot of research in getting this pair and I am completely happy in buying from the person I got them from. He is continuing to support me in looking after them, and is very quick to reply to my questions and gives brilliant advice.
However, as the people of the hamster forums point out I am not the most experienced person to be running a hamster rescue, and therefore I have joined the Northern Hamster Club and I will be meeting with breeders for them to help me and going to shows, to help the hamsters in my care, my own and those who are rescued.
