Hamsters Looking For New Homes

Below are the Hamsters that We have rescued and A little information about them.

Ginger~ Syrian Hamster

benny2.jpg

Name: Ginger
Breed: Syrian
Color: Wild color
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
 
Her Story: The pretty Female Syrian came in with her father, three brothers and two sisters. Her previous owners kept them all together and they were fighting viciously. When I got her, it was evident she was the low ranking one of the litter. she was very scarred up and had some open cuts about her body. Though she has recovered physcily, apart from a scar on her sholder which will always be there, emotionaly she is taking a harder struggle. She is getting less and less shy, she will let you pet her, and I'm sure with consistant work she will be easy to hold and love her new owner terribly. She gets very attached to you, and recognizes the voice of the person who feeds her, she loves food and treats. She needs someone who will look beyond her past, and beyond her shyness and see her for what a beauty she truely is.
 
Recomended: She will warm up to anyone. Might not be best for young children. I'd say probably 10+ age.
Adoption fee: $5.00

Benny~ Syrian Hamster

Name: Benny
Breed: Syrian
Color: Wild color
Gender: male
Age: Adult
 
His Story: Benny is Ginger's Daddy. He came to us at the same time as her in with his three sons. The people whom he came from had kept him in with his mate, which was luck that neither of them killed eachother let alone their babies! He is now in his own cage. a little shy, but overall a good boy. He'll need  a loving home who will be patient with him, and understand his history and love him just the way he is!
 
Recomended: He'd really be good with just about anyone. he's never bitten. He'll require a little getting used to you and might be shy/ jumpy at first, but he'll settle down. Any syrian male who can stay in with his children and not kill them has to have the best temperment in the world! No joke!
Adoption fee: $5.00

Jake~ Syrian Hamster

Name: Jake
Breed: Syrian
Color: Cinnamon
Gender: male
Age: Adult
 
His Story: Jake is my Wild child! He came here a crazy little know it all! He was brought in the same cage as his daddy, Benny, and brothers, Justin and Todd. He's a very crazy, jumpy and vocal little boy. He'll win you over with his carm and comunication skills. Come up to his cage and he sniffs through the holes at you. He squeeks, squeels, purrs and so much more! he's very vocal, but also extreamly timmid. he is really jumpy, and can easily outsmart you. He dosent typicly mind being petted, but holding him takes consistant work and effort! He's a rioat, loves to eat and take treats from you and is a charming little boy who will win your heart with his unique personality!
 
Recomended: He's really not a good one for children, who will want to pet and hold and play with him. he needs someone who wont be afraid of him. I'd say probably 14+ in age, just to be safe, because this little guy has SPUNK!
Adoption fee: $5.00

Justin~ Syrian Hamster

Name: Justin
Breed: Syrian
Color: Cinnamon
Gender: male
Age: Adult
 
His Story: Justin came in the same cage as his daddy, Benny, and two brothers Todd and Jake. He's a good boy, loves to run on his wheel and play games. He'll do anything for a treat and isnt bad. he doesnt mind being petted and is OK to hold, he doesnt like it much, but he sortof tollerates it.
 
Recomended: He's a fairly good boy so I think he could do well with children. I'd say 9+ to play it safe, but he's got a good personality and has yet to bite.
Adoption fee: $5.00

Treaty~ Dwarf Hybred
treat.jpg
Name: Treaty
Breed: Campbells Dwarf/ Winter white Hamster Hybred
Color: white bellied Brown
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
 
Her Story: She came to us at around Six weeks old, and already pregnate to her brother, Zoro. This is the equivilant of a 12 year old girl having a baby. It was obveous that the hamsters came from a long line of inbreeding, because of this, her son "Tiny Tim" died. He was terribly small and never grew past the size of a 1.5 week old baby hamster. Treaty tried her best to save him, and took extra careful care of him. she would carry him around everywhere with her, but in the end he died. Poor treaty! her other children are still alright and she continued to care for them until they were weaned. I would love to find her an amazing home, as she is a clever little girl and needs some extra TLC. She's still young, but having a litter has aged her. She's looking for the perfect home with someone who will love and understand her.
 
Recomendation: I'd say probably good with any age, picks up really easy with a toilet paper roll [NOT UR HANDS!] and once out of her cage sits nicely on your hands. I'd say 8+
Adoption fee: $5.00

Flight~ Campbells Dwarf Hamster

[[note: the picture above is a baby picture of her, she is full grown]]
 
Name: Flight
Breed: Campbells Dwarf Hamster
Color: Blue with platinum white wings
Gender: female
Age: Teen
 
Their Story: Flight was born in a litter with several siblings, and half siblings. Her mother and aunt shared the role of raising them. When she was weaned, she was put in with her sisters, which shouldnt be a problem, however she was the lowest ranking, it became aparent to me, one night when her one sister led an attack on her, and now poor Flight is tailless. She has a tiny stub where her tail had been. So shes now a little more jumpy and aloof. She doesnt bite and loves treats and being held. Though her tail will never grow back, the scars of her siblings attack can be mended, with some love and attention, which this girl really deserves.
 
Recomendation: Can go for person of all ages. She's a little shy but a sweetheart! doesnt bite. Good size for children
Adoption fee: $5.00

Cherry~ Campbells Dwarf Hamster

Name: Cherry Pie
Breed: Campbells Dwarf
Color: Blue with platinum spotting
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
 
Her Story: She was born to rule! She's a total princess! Regal, troublesome, Demanding, and totaly incharge! I couldnt believe how wild she was! She is very cage protective, however is alot of fun to watch. Would be a great pet to watch climb things, do silly things and run around the cage with a huge banana chip! She's a silly little girl.
 
Recomended: I'd say she's probably not a good one for holding, and she WILL NOT tollerate any petting of any kind. She thinks shes a star, and the little Diva would love someone who will understand that and love watching her, and interact with her in a respectful way which she will approve of! She's a goofball though, and I'd say should go to someone 15+
Adoption fee: $5.00

Recomended:  MUST go to someone who knows about hamsters and has had them before. She's not a fun playful hamsters the kids will love, but if your looking for a hamster to watch, and want to give someone a good home that might have a harder time finding one, then she's the one for you!

Sweet, kind and loveable, you’ll fall for these girls the moment you see them! Lace is very special. She has cataracts in both of her eyes and cant see well. Her sister Has a cataract in one of her eyes. They both need a little pet before you pick them up to let them know you are going to pick them up. They do not bite, just are alittle warry due to their lack of ability to see.

Name: Faith
Breed: Campbells Dwarf Hamster
Color: Agouti
Gender: female
Age: Teen
 
Extra: is living with her sisters: Berry, Hope, Charity,
 
Their Story: She's the wildest and most spooky of the siblings. prehaps the hardest to pick up and bond with. she is warry of people, doesnt hate them, was raised along side her sisters and given the same amount of human interaction, just never really took to it as well. Probably the only sibling of them that I would say should be for someone of specific age. She's a good girl, just a little shy and jumpy.
