We hear so much about you from our 10 year old, she will go to the pet store to buy toys for her hamster but she’s always saying Victoria Raechel says you can use this, don’t use that, you can’t do that. We finally got her a hamster for her because she was absolutely obsessed with hamsters and is really responsible. She got a hamster ball as a birthday present but wanted to return it. When the clerk asked why we were returning the ball she told him that because Victoria Raechel says it’s not safe for him and that you knew all about them. He tried to convince her that it was safe but she wouldn’t budge. I looked at the clerk and told him she’s a new hamster mom and she is super protective. She even had me measure her cage and has to look up everything before he’s given anything. she’s always looking up your video on UA-cam to see if it’s safe. 😆
That's so cute 🥺
I love your daughter for being soooo loving, devoted, and responsible about her love (and obsession) with hamsters, and I love your family for encouraging and supporting her love and her responsibility! Thank you for waiting to make sure she was responsible enough to take care of a pet before getting her one, and for putting in the work, research, and money to provide the hamster the great life it deserves. I'm sure it's so happy with you guys, and I hope you all of you guys are happy and healthy!! 🥺🥺🥰🥰🥰💖💖💕
I love this kid!!
Amazing!!
Kid is going places. She will succeed in her life.More responsible ,that a lot of adults ( pet owners)…..
"Listen bell i'm tired of ur attitude" omg i can't even
omg me too that is me to some of my friends
@Olivia Baxter yup 🤣🤣🤣
“I need helps” 😂
omg yaaaa
@@countingstarz2310 Hii!
just gonna ask my hamster if he’s okay with me changing his set up
Yes I’m sure that’ll work.
Hahhahahahahaha
🤣I was wondering the same
LMFAO right i was like how are we supposed to know💀
That’s what I thought 😂
I laughed so hard at “listen bell I’m tired of your attitude”
I also did a boredom breaker i tought myself, you just take plain, non coloured and scentless toilet paper,roll it out and place either treats or their seed mix on the paper, roll it up press it up, cover it with as much toilet paper as you like and give it to your hamster and watch them chew through the paper and find the entrance to the treats or seed mix :D
Ty!
just upgraded my hamster's cage to 660sq inches and he's still kind of inactive even at nighttime, hope it's just from old age and not boredom
Hope old is he?
I think some hamsters r just more active then others. I had a hamster who didn't like wheels and wouldn't come out that much but that was just him, he had 800sq and he still preferred to sleep. He was happy and healthy tho. But I also had a hamster who would barely sleep and all she would do was wiz around the cage and run on her wheel. So I'm sure there is nothing to worry about :)
So is mine but I don’t know how old
What cage are you using? I want to see if I like it for my hamster...
Kristina’s Corner I’m using a 40 gallon terrarium
Victoria :The next couple boredom breakers I am going to talk to you about for you hamster is food"
me:omg me and hamsters have something in common we both eat when we're bored!
Ari R hi there Arianator!!
I'm a huge Arianator too!!
I just did this cause whenever someone sees an army anywhere in the comments they be like-" ARMYYY!!" .. So I thought why not do the same for Arii!
@@ilovehamsters9515 nobody is telling you to not
Haha me
Thank you all the tips you gave me have worked with my new hamster
I am getting a hamster next week
Dunja Ivkovic you won’t regret it what type
Dunja Ivkovic what will u name it
@@tigtig8576 a russian dwarf there are only 2 in the petstore and i really really hope that there will be atleast one when i come
@Gizzy and choppy Pet channel i know how many pets do you have
My hamster always used to do the first thing on her own. She would literally drag her toys all around the cage like she was rearranging her room. It was hilarious 😂
My hammy does that too
I don’t even think u understand how helpful you are to me, I just recently got a hamster and I am using all of your tips and honestly trying my best to do almost exactly what you do (my hamster acts different then yours). I also just love to watch your videos in general. Mainly when doing chores and cleaning my hamster’s, Daisy’s, wheel, food dish, or water bottle. I just love your videos, something about them just brings me happiness!
True!
Yes same with me! My hamster never really wanted to see me, but I followed her tips on how to get him to trust me and now he wants to see me 😁
the buckwheat paste is such a STEAL ! it saves so much money & time from buying those seed logs and sticks from the stores
Which flour do you use? I’ve looked in stores and Amazon and I can’t seem to find buckwheat flour
@@marzya8013 you can use all-purpose flour, it's just not as healthy.
Is almond flour safe as well?
@@younie229 yes Ma’am!
@@GhstMane thanks!
My hamster LOVED all the things in this video! Good job again
Thank you!
Dear Victoria
My hamster Fluffy died peacefully yesterday evening due to old age aged 1year 10months..it was a terrible feeling😭..but he lived a long life, and I'm happy that I could give him proper and the best care I could!
This is a thank you letter- Thank you so so much for creating such amazing and informative content!!☺
It is just because of you and Erin that I could give Fluffy the proper care he deserved! Thank you so much Victoria!💕
~love from India💕
I'm really sorry for your loss of Fluffy!
I know its been a year but I am 😞 My hamster named Fluffy. I have him almost a week. Hope u are fine now.
I have a hamster named fluffy rn
@@VictoriaRaechel your so sweet
victoria: you can’t just throw your hamster a ball and have them be entertained for hours and hours
also victoria: *literally throws them a ball*
i love watching ur videos victoria! ur hammy’s are sooo cute and u r the reason i know proper hamster care!!
LOL
I can’t have things hanging from the top of my hamsters cage because he climbs it and tries to swing on it and escape
Lol should've named him Tarzan
SAME!
Then you have to upgrade your cage it is a Sign of stress or to small of a cage
@@kendleroser3670 I've seen hamsters that will do that an a detolf lol
Same
Your hamster looks so frustrated while trying to get that peanut out of the kabob 😝😝
Edit: Please be careful using the box cutter. Don't cut things towards your fingers.
haha she eventually got it, it's part of the challenge :p
I agree! Thats how i put a box cutter through my hand making a bin cage
Kebab Turki very good
I'm a 26 yo guy and I adopted two baby hamsters yesterday and your videos are helping SO FREAKING MUCH! Thank you very much for all your advises and tips! I want to to give my hams the best possible home and much love, of couse!
Honestly love hearing when adults get into owning hamsters! Happy my channel's been of help!
i scatter feed half of my hamsters food, and put the other half in her food bowl so that i know she is still eating. :)
‘Listen bell, I’m tired of your attitude’ 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi Victoria my name is Melody i am 9 yrs old. My hamster fluffy passed a few days before Christmas. Now I adopted 2 winter white dwarfs named Hope and precious .you have helped me learn how to care for my hamsters properly . Right now I have 2 crittertrail cages but over March break from school my dad and I are building a DIYcage like yours. Thanks for all your ad ice on cages and enrichment.
Hey how did it go?
"Listen bell, I'm tired of ur attitude" had me dying... love your videos ❤
I’m gonna try the flour and water one! Tysm for the suggestion!!!
Yee Haw I’m trying that one too
i don’t know if any other people do this but i put a tiny bit in his bowl and the rest that i feed him i sprinkle it around his cage:)🐹
Half and half. I've seen people suggest it before. Sounds like a good way of keeping a bit more an eye on the diet. You could even fish out your hamsters favourite bits to scatter, and have the things they like least in the bowl
Same
I use to do that but then my hampster died and the new one wont do that.
so do I :) only veggies are served in a bowl. lots of love from my german hamster channel
I sprinkle food around the cage, inside the logs, and other toys. So he has to hunt for his food.
The Hay boredom breaker was so helpful(I have two gerbils and they loved it thanks)
1st time with a hamster these sound to me to be real helpful
Going to try a few of your suggestions for new hamster toby
I just got my dwarf hamster yesterday your videos really help me learn about how to care for him
LUCY HUHTA what’s his name? My Russian dwarf is called Finn!
@@xxisaac_gachawith_meh_hams4613 his name is bebell
Aww congratulations on your new family member ❤️ I recently got a dwarf too, and Victoria's videos have helped soo much being a first time owner 😄 enjoy the time with your hammie 😉
Happy to hear they've been helping!
I have two dwaf hamster
This channel is the holy grail of hamster knowledge
Also I've seen green stuff in the hamster cages is it some type of hay?
yeah she uses hay in her cages to make it more natural
Donna Howell it’s herbs I think
Thanks haha! I use willow branches with the leaves, herbs, orchard grass hay and natural moss those would be all the green things in there.
Victoria Raechel you probably won’t reply or even see this but i was wondering where you get your herbs and the orchard grass hay and the moss because i’m staying to make a natural enclosure for my hamsters and i can’t find any of the stuff that you use.
I’m not first
I’m not last
But I sure clicked fast
Love you
I've literally heard that 20 times on her channel
So Original
Quality Memes I know right 🙄
It’s a trending comment what do you expect?
Stop hating lol!! Peeps like there just being honest
My hamster has never used his willow balls other than to move them around I put the treats in them and he went nuts trying to get the treat out it was amazing!!!
This is soo helpful. I’m not home often when he’s up and playing. I noticed he was kinda bored. Now I know what I can do for him.
Awesome toys! I will definitely have to try these for my rats! With haveing 10 rats at least one of them gets bored! 😂
I subscribed!🐀💕
I’ve been waiting for this video! Every Wednesday’s and Saturday’s
Thank you so much for this video! I've had my syrian Margot for a week now and she recently started chewing on the bars despite having a big cage with lots of things to do. I reall appreciate all the help you've given me and Margot!
Hopefully these can help keep Margot a little more busy!
I haven't had a hamster in years - they were classroom pets (teacher). Now this one is my person pet and I really want to have a great relationship with the little gal. Thank you for all the advice!
When I have to change my hamsters set up, he panics and pees everywhere 😂
Lol
same but my hamster rearranges the whole cage lol
Newt my hamster that recently went to the vet just finished her antibiotic and her leg is looking a lot better!
This is a great video and I love your channel! ❤️😊🐹
Glad to hear your hamster is doing well. Have a great day.
Aw I love hearing that!! Thank you Meep beep! 💜
So happy to hear that everything involves food haha. Mine only responds to food. Ever. Literally the only thing he does even though he has plenty to eat. 😂
My hamster is always busy
Eating
Edit: thanks so much for the likes
Lol
Same XD
Lolll
mines sleeping
Hamsters are such big moods
Victoria's hamsters : starts playing with the treats straight away
My hamster : walks right over the treat and goes to sniff the Christmas tree
I have a Syrian hamster named Pelet, got her the day after Christmas so that is her middle name and I am shore she will LOVE all these cool fun ideas!
Victoria! I just wanted to thank you again for helping me on my hamster journey! I emailed you showing my cages for Haku and Tobias! Haku had an accidental litter and I just sent what the cage looks like now! they’re finally two weeks so I cleaned mamas cage and now the babies are extra cute and clean! hope I get featured I just really need some more advice 😂💖 Thanks again!
Happy to help! Hopefully you'll see your cage in the video but there was 350 cages to have to sort through!
Totally understand! Just so happy!
I love these videos so much you truly do help me with my hamsters when I first got hamsters I had a critter trail then I discovered this channel and immediately fixed my mistakes! I’m so glad I came across your channel so that my hamsters could have a very nice and healthy life! I look forward to getting my notifications that you have posted a new video every week so thank you so much for helping me and my hamsters!
Thank you Emme! I'm really glad to hear my channel has helped you improve your care!
I didn't know that my cage was too small, Twilight would bite on the bars and lost hair above her nose :( We have aquariums I can use! Now I know it was an act of boredom and I don't want my hamster to be bored. I love how educational and helpful your videos Victoria! Thank you! I was lost when I got my first hamster, I was kind of lost! But your videos helped so much!
Happy I could help!
The scattering food really help Bonnie my hamster! Thanks!
I'm so glad!
I'm so glad your channel exists because I never owned a hamster and you are helping me a lot thank you so much!
Thank you for watching it!!
You need to make a new version of this video from the hamster's point of view "How to keep your human busy during shelter in place"
The hamster talk 😂 I’m dying
When I gave my hamster the willow balls she was like rolling around on the bedding wrestling it
Mine just stares at it ;v;
bumble is the cutest hamster i have ever seen i hope she lives forever that cobab was adorable with her playing with it cutness overload
Thank you! The hamster with the kabob was actually my past hamster Honey :)
@@VictoriaRaechel oh sorry well she was very adorable
You are so clever and you hamsters are really lucky to have you as thier owners
Immediately after watching this video I stole the tube out of the center of toilet paper for my hamster
I've been keeping tp tubes for a long time for crafts and as dog toys(put treats inside and close the ends). Being good for our new pet hamsters is awesome lol
Love you Victoria I was watching another vid from someone else and I didn’t hesitate nor think twice before hitting yours instead
Aw that's very nice of you haha!
This video is much needed thx uuuu ❤️❤️❤️ I have 2 robo hamsters 1 male and 1 female and in separate homes (cages but I don’t like that term)
I have a robo his name is tator tot i got him Saturday l
@@threelie good luck with him
This is awesome! I'm putting together a proper care guide and getting information for my son's class for their class hamster. I have a 40-gallon tank ready, as well as wood shavings (kiln-dried) and some driftwood stuff. All of this stuff is AWESOME to know! I'll be sure to get a little bit going for my presentation on hamsters for the class. 😊 Thank you for all the wonderful tips! This hamster is going to be spoiled and SO happy!
We've been watching your videos for quite a few months and find them helpful, informative and VERY sensitive to the needs of hamsters. Thanks for uploading.
Thank you so much!
Omg it helped me soooooo much with my hammy love you!!!!

Can anyone relate to going into a person's house and looking into there bins to see if there is a toilet roll in there ? ...
No just me ...ok I guess
Cliff Foulkes not just you...*sigh*
@@gabriellaszudzik5968 LMFAO
I now have something to do after this pandemic. Thank you.
Maybe I do that....😅
“Uhhh definitely not me eh um not me definitely”
I love that she edit ahe didwhen her hamster says: listen bell, im tired of your atitude🤣🤣
I just got my hamster Cheetoh and he seems very occupied and happy! He runs in his wheel, (a big one so his back dosnt bend) he has a large bin cage, nice toys, and nice food!
This video is going to help a lot. I just got a dwarf hamster and I need something to keep him busy when I'm not able to play with him. These will be perfect

Me: Good Job UA-cam 👌🏽🤷🏼♀️
Omg Victoria Raechel hearted my comment eeeeeeekk
My mom wouldnt let me get my hamster a bigger cage.
How big is the one you have?
Normally with diy vids and so on I watch them but never make them but I make nearly everything you show us lol
You are THE authority on hamsters for me.
Hamsters are wonderful little creatures.
I love you tori! I heard a song and while watching bumble the song had “bumble bee” well tori love ya! Hope you remember me
Aw adorable haha!
Thank you so much! My hamster isn’t that active, but I made the toilet roll-triangle thing, and he can’t stop playing with it. Keep up the great work!
I think my robo hamster will love these
5:28 awwww she's so tiny & precious
Comments:
“My hamsters always busy...”
Me:
Im always busy
Raising for a hamster so I can finally be happy and all these hours of watching hamster cage videos pay off
This video was so perfectly timed!! My hamsters have just destroyed their last toys and now I’m so excited to make more!❤️ love ya Victoria🥰
Aw hope they enjoy them throughly!
I’m pretty early love watching all your videos btw
Thank you Hannah!
These boredom breakers work so well! My hamster love them!Thank you!
You helped me a TON thank you! My hamster has play toys and mind stimulating ones as well but he gets bored easily. These really got him moving😄
3:14 aww 😂❤️
my hamster is always busy👇
TRYING TO EAT AND RIP MY FINGER
my hamster is always busy
avoiding my hands
It’s just the opposites
Also love this vid looking forward to your subscribed hamsters cage video xxx 😘
I love how you put the little hamster comments 😍
Omg thanks this really helped i have had my hamster for 2 years now and this is the first time he has shown signs of boredom you are a lifesaver 🙏
Omg!!! I luv this!! I will definitely use this for my hamster 🐹! I am going to try the chew toys and put the flower and water on it and then put my homage hamster mix on it. Also, quick question, is the sunburst hamster seed mix mixed with mela worms good and healthy for a Syrian hamster? Thanks! Luv u 💜💜🐹
I hope they enjoy it! Higgins by itself isn't enough protein and for mealworms to to be a protein booster you'd need to calculate everything properly to make sure you're putting enough. Mixing higgins sunburst with a high protein pellet is best.
Victoria Raechel ok! Thanks sooo much I will use the rat and mouse misery pellets!! Thanks soooo much for helping out!!
Victoria: "While cats and dogs can play with a ball for hours and hours..."
My cat: (10 seconds after I throw the ball) I'm bored.
My hamster died a few days ago :( I now have 2 new Syrian hamsters who do not enjoy the toys my last hamster did so theses are perfect.
(The Syrians are in separate cages above the minimum)
AshFuzzyDucky your parents get you hamsters fast lol
@@troutsofinsanity yeah so the next day my parents walk in with these two new hamsters. ;-;
My hamster also passed away 2 weeks ago,, I miss Fluffy so much!! I'm gonna get a new hamster friend home this weekend:)
I'm going to use all of these!!! Thank you. My robe Petra paces her cage even though it is a nice and big cage with loads of bedding and toys so hopefully this will help keep her busy and reduce if not eliminate the pacing.
My hamster loves puzzle toys! I think it’s an awesome boredom breaker
*tries a cardboard related toy for my hamster*
My hamster: yummy i love the taste of toilet paper holders🥳
Im going to have a dverv hamster soon, thx this helps a lot
another question i can't find, you've said aspen is a safe bedding for hamsters. would you know if "aspen snake bedding" (which is aspen shavings) is also usable for hamster bedding??
Yes it’s fine as long as it’s not too hard and rough 😊
This video helps out so much! Mostly because I was having a hard time thinking of things to entertain my hamster. But she seems really happy about her new toys I bet this will keep her entertained for awhile.
My hamster Ruby will normally come out around 1-3 am. And I am asleep around then so I don't get the chance to play with her that often. That's why I try to entertain her as much as I can also today was the first time I have seen her in a few days because she comes out so late, I missed her. She is very tamed. Even if I don't play with her all that often. She is so cute! By far the pickiest hamster I have had.😂
Your Syrian Hamster looks just like my Bumble. She’s 2.5yrs old, and so friendly. I rescued her from someone who bought her for her 6yr old daughter, at 6 months old, and the girl got bored with her after a few weeks. She was stuck in a room, in her cage, that nobody used. Thanks for your boredom breaker tips. I already use the loo rolls. Our cleaner knows to save them! 😀
I love the layout of your hamster home. We couldn’t do that, as we have cats. But Bumble has a 3 storey house, and she’s out every evening, playing in her ball pit. No balls! just toys and treats hidden around!
Aw! I'm glad she ended up with you to live out a more fulfilling rest of life!

I did the second one my hampster loved it thanks Victoria
I made the thing with the toilet paper roll with flour, water and the seed mix. Mookie (my hamster) absolutely lovessss his new toy! Thanks for the ideas!!! 🐹❤️🥰
Holy heck. Thanks, I really needed some ideas and didn't see anything really worthy at petstores. And it's all budget stuff too, awesome.
If I didn’t have you my hamster would be in a small cage with a tiny bit of bedding and a 6inch wheel, but instead my hamster has a big tank with 7inches of bedding and a 10inch wheel, I can’t thank you enough for making me a good hamster mom!
Hey, just wanted to say that these videos are crazy helpful, and have seriously helped me take better care of my new hamster. Keep posting new videos!
Thank you for watching!
