Jin is a very friendly hamster! Like a (human) child, he sleeps soundly (in the day) but goes wild (at night)! He is an energetic little boy who loves to run and climb everywhere. He startles a little when he hears sudden noises, but is tame and does not bite unless startled. He is okay to be held but would rather roam the land on his own! He goes crazy on his wheel every night!

His distinctive trait would be his floppy left ear, which we suspect was torn off when he was found abandoned at the park with his siblings. However, this does not affect his hearing at all and he is not in pain. His floppy ear is what makes him special!

Free roam time is when his personality really shines! He likes to explore every single nook and cranny in order to look for his next new favourite corners. Once he has settled and cleaned himself up, that is when his fun begins! He loves to find something to climb on, be it curtains or cupboard handles. His adopter needs to be very careful and supervise him when he is free roaming! He has a natural flair for climbing and is very persistent in going to the very top. Sometimes, he will use his fosterer as a stepping ‘stone’ to climb onto higher platforms. Don’t underestimate him, he is very intelligent! Maybe he can learn a trick or two if you put your heart to it.

Special requirements:

Cage: Minimum 100cmx50cm, no bars

Adopter must ensure that Jin has a hamster-proof room to free roam in every night. A playpen is not enough.
