Hamster

posted by [personal profile] bugshaw at 10:52am on 09/02/2013
I've got a new hamster, did I not say? A Roborovski (teeny tiny, like Flash and Dasher), pet shop rather than rescue. After throwing a few names around, I think he is called Humphrey. Really not keen on being handled yet, but this comes with time.

He has been in the plastic tank for the last week, and this morning I got the second-largest glass tank out of the garage (Revel is not interested in downsizing from the largest). It was chuffing cold, so I am leaving it to come to room temperature before putting Humphrey in there :-)

No photos, he moves so quickly that in a dozen pictures I only caught half a blurry furry rear end.

I hope you and Humphrey will be very happy.

I really hope he appreciates you for letting his tank warm up before he takes up residence. What a thoughtful Bug!

I think we had a couple of them in my school in 1976 - really teeny with stripes? I remember them as a bit bitey and timid.

Yay for new hamsters! I can't say that I've ever successfully photographed a Roborovski. Too small, too fast.
