My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey there! My name is Om and I'm a little white and tan hamster. I'm an adorable fluffball with cute cheek pouches. I'm also quiet, clean, inquisitive, smart, trainable and fun - the whole amazing hamster package. I'm nocturnal, so playtime starts at dusk. I'm an explorer - I love to dig, burrow and make tunnels in my bedding...so much fun. I eat hamster pellet food, which is supplemented with treats like veggies, nuts, seeds and a tiny amount of fruit. I need a large enclosure with solid floors, lots of bedding and plenty of room for me to zip around (I get lots of exercise!). I also need a hidey hut, solid exercise wheel and hamster safe toys to keep me from getting bored. I really appreciate time outside of my enclosure to spend with you! Do I sound like just the hamster you're looking for? I think you should come by the shelter to meet me. I just know you'll love me!
