My hammy peanut :)

Most of you dont know, but I've have a Hamster named Peanut :)
He is 4 years old :shock:. Very old for hammies!
I haven't mentioned him much because he doesn't like to be held at all, and I cant really interact with him. The otherday I felt bad that I wasn't paying much attention to the poor old guy so I took him out for piccies!!

Look how white he has gotten :shock: , he was all gray and black

Exactly!! He is very old, and has developed a few health problems, but the vet says he still has a quality of life! His hobbies are digging, digging, eating, and digging. Oh, and biting me :roll:

He looks just like my Slinky, just a little more grey! :lol: I feel sad, tho, 'cause I recently found a tumor on poor little Slinky. Luckily, he isn't in pain.
 
Aaaaw - Peanut is gorgeous - a very distinguished old hammy-man :love: :love:
You may not be able to handle him much, but you must be doing something right, for him to be FOUR years old :D :D :D
 
hi

4!!!! :shock: Didn't know hammies lived that long...unless your blood is the elixir of life?? :?

Congrats on the world's longest lived hamster - and he's a beauty too - never seen a lovely grey one like that :D
 
I used to have a hamster called peanut, he was named so as he was born in one of my litters and when he was first born, he looked like a monkey nut... hence the name peanut. He was a little gem! Give your hammy a snuggle from me, he's lovely :D

awwwwww lovely
i love hammies i had once that lived that old
is he a winter white???

Nope :D Siberian Dwarf (common breed in the U.S). He was never white like that, just came with the age :wink:

Thanks for all of the lovely comments! I always felt like I wasn't giving him the "best" life because I was never able to take him out, but now I've realized that he has lived this long, everything must be ok!

I wonder how old the oldest hammy is :?: Haved looked it up in the Guiness book of world records but no one has recorded it :?

Thanks again xxxx
