Description
I'm rehoming my friendly Syrian hamster. She's trained to use a litter area, is hand-tame, and comfortable being handled gently. She’s white with light markings, healthy, and around 1–2 years old (I adopted her about a year ago). I’m asking for someone experienced with hamsters who can provide a quiet, safe home with a proper cage, wheel, chew toys, and appropriate diet. I’m including her current bedding and a small soft hide seen in the photos. No issues with biting; she’s calm during handling. Rehoming only to responsible owners in the UAE who can give her regular attention and care.
Product specifications:
- Species: Syrian hamster
- Condition: Trained
- Age: Approximately 1–2 years
- Temperament: Hand-tame, calm
- Included: Bedding and soft hide (as pictured)
- Location: UAE (local pickup preferred)
🐹 Hamster Care Guide
💗 Before You Take My Hamster Home
Please make sure you have everything ready before bringing the hamster home:
* A safe enclosure
* Appropriate bedding
* Food and fresh water
* A suitable wheel
* Hides/nesting areas
* Chew toys
* A sand bath
* A safe, quiet place to keep the enclosure
⸻
🏠 Where Should a Hamster Live?
DO:
* Keep the hamster indoors.
* Keep the enclosure somewhere quiet and calm.
* Keep it away from direct sunlight.
* Keep it away from air conditioners, heaters and strong drafts.
* Keep it somewhere cats, dogs or other animals cannot reach the enclosure.
* Give the hamster somewhere dark and safe to sleep.
DON’T:
* ❌ Keep the hamster outside.
* ❌ Leave the enclosure in a balcony, garden or garage.
* ❌ Put the enclosure in direct sunlight.
* ❌ Put the enclosure next to a loud TV or speaker.
* ❌ Put the enclosure somewhere very hot or cold.
⚠️ Hamsters are excellent escape artists! They can squeeze through surprisingly small gaps, climb, dig, and push at doors or lids. Always make sure the enclosure is securely closed and check it regularly for loose or damaged areas. Never leave the enclosure open or assume your hamster can’t escape. 🐹💗
⸻
🏡 Housing
Hamsters need lots of floor space, not just a small cage.
DO:
* Provide a large, secure enclosure with plenty of floor space.
* Give them deep bedding so they can burrow.
* Provide hides and tunnels.
* Make sure there is good ventilation.
* Make sure there are no gaps they can escape through.
DON’T:
* ❌ Keep them in tiny cages.
* ❌ Use wire floors.
* ❌ Use unsafe bedding such as fluffy/cotton nesting material.
* ❌ Overcrowd the enclosure.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Hamsters should generally live alone.
Syrian hamsters must be housed alone.
Dwarf hamsters can sometimes be kept in pairs in certain circumstances, but separation may be necessary if they fight. Never assume two hamsters are safe together just because they grew up together.
If they fight, separate them immediately and don’t put them back together.
