Cherry’s IG highlight: here
Cherry is never afraid to express herself. Each time she wakes up, she starts her day with big cute stretches and adorable yawns. Her daily grooming routine is a must and it is a joy to watch her tumble over while she does so. If you are nearby, she will constantly look up and attempt to reach up for your attention & permission to free roam. If you offer her favourite shelled peanut or dried freeze tofu, she would snatch it from your hand and noms on it or bring it back to her lair.
Cherry is not a picky Syrian, and has always cleaned up her food bowl (she has not rejected any food/treats/sprays thus far). She is also the type of hamster who strictly adheres to her sleeping & waking up times (Such a disciplined hamster). You will rarely see her awake in the day & only wakes up late at night to carry out her daily routine. When night falls, this girl has so much energy to give, hence multiple boredom breakers would keep her entertained or daily free roam would be the best therapy!
*Medical history: Upon medical advice, Cherry had undergone pre-emptive nebulization treatment to ward against bacteria that causes pneumonia and heart disease as she was housed with a hamster who was diagnosed with those conditions. She has successfully completed her course of treatment and no further action is required from her future adopters.
If you are a night owl, Cherry would be the perfect buddy for you!
