Queenie is an energiser bunny and has lightning quick reflexes. She has access to two 21cm in her enclosure and her favourite exercise is alternating between the two wheels, so it would be great if her forever family can provide her with more than one wheel!

She has boundless energy and it is delightful to watch her enjoy running on her wheel(s)! She is curious about new surroundings and her first instinct is to explore every inch of a new environment to familiarise herself.

Are you ready to start living life in the fast lane with Queenie?

Things to note when adopting roborovskis:

1. Adopters should make sure to get a glass tank/bin cage/acrylic cage that does not have bars as roborovski hamsters are smaller and can squeeze through the gaps.

2. 1/3 of the cage should be covered with sand as roborovski hamsters tend to become excessively ‘greasy’ when an appropriately sized sand area is not given.

3. A wheel that is minimally 21cm should still be provided even if they are smaller in size as compared to dwarf hamsters.

4. They are fast and might not be suitable for children. Some may also nip/bite.

5. Taming is not guaranteed, but possible with lots of patience, time and love!
