  • Hamsters should have a varied diet so it's important you are feeding them safe foods! For a more detailed list with the amounts to feed please look here: hamsterhideout....
    Yes I have made this video before but there is always room for improvement and the old video is 4 years old! So I thought it was much due for an update!

    Who else is getting a hamster really soon and is doing a whole butt load of research to make sure the hammy will live the BEST life
    Edit: one of my hamsters had to be down a few days ago. She had a horrible infection that wouldn’t go away. This is my first major pet loss (as before this I’ve only had fish) and I don’t even know what to do
    Edit 2: it’s been a while since little Apple passed, and I’m doing good. Obviously I still miss her but I still have Cinnamon and she’s doing well so I’m ok

And “research is the first thing you should do” well obviously they are doing research, maybe they’ve decided they wanted a hamster just now so they’re doing research. Why are you here if you have done all your research?

      @@g.0674 hey there! Unfortunately, Clover developed a tumor on her stomach and it would be too much financially and for her to go through surgery to remove it, so we decided to put her down. She is loved very much still and there isn’t a day that I don’t miss her, but I can rest now knowing that she’s not in any more pain. I now own three mice, and no worries! Even a year ago, I wouldn’t ever only feed her what was listed in the video! I made sure to give her a balanced diet between a regular seed mix for hamsters and fresh produce, making sure it was only once or twice a week.

    Watching this and dicing up safe foods to feed to a former class pet, that robo dwarf is so cute and she doesn't get a lot of foods outside her seed mix and pellets +treats so I'll be giving her some celery, carrots, apples, and anything else I can safely feed her to help her stay healthy. When I took care of her for the summer, I use your videos to help my teacher lengthen her lifespan and help her live a better life, so thanks a bunch for uploading!

    I too am surprised about them being able to eat meat, that is good to know. I also own a Guinea pig so I am pretty much ready when it comes to veggies and fruits.
    Off to check out your other hamster related videos! :)

    i have a hamster and a rabbit and im a 37 year old male. i weirdly grown to love animals much more than i ever did before not sure why. I realized i was not up to par with my hamsters feeding when i brought the rabbit into my home. I decided to start feeding my hamster all kinds of things where he used to just get pellets and a treat. i notice now he comes out of his home now searching through the glass for my location and gets all excited when i come to him. He waits for me to pet him and i can tell he really loves his life and im so happy i made that change for him. Buy small animals and you learn a different kind of love.

    The grapes,apples can be fed without the skin too. Sugary fruits must be small,limited to once a week since they it will cause diabetes. The quantity should be no bigger then the size of your pinkie nail for sugary fruits.The tomato is acidic. The celery is stringy which may cause choking. Cabbage/cucumber may upset their stomach.
