Natto (Adopted)

est age - 6 mth
species - ww dwarf
likes - burrowing, sleeping hidden in his hideouts, burying his food dish, walnuts, fruit, lots of millet
dislikes - kids

Natto is a secretive little guy, who prefers doing everything in his burrows. He keeps his food dish in his burrow, and only eats in secret. Does not bite if handled gently and calmly. Enjoys whole walnuts in secret, but can be abit of a picky eater. Does not like bunny nature food and will be quite extreme in starving himself. Currently on FP standard mix.

Adopters need to moniter that he eats every few days as he has been observed to protest until his weight drops to the 20g range if he's stressed or does not like the food

Requirements

Enrichment: The only extra requirement necessary is to have thick bedding of over 10cm with at least one hideout for him to reduce his stress levels.

Guyonthefloor (Adopted)

est age - 6 mth
species - ww dwarf
likes - sleeping and peeing in his wheel, cold damp cocopeat to dig in, eating fresh sprouts which grew in his cocopeat, little ceramic houses, mealworms and nuts, flax sprays
dislikes - little children

Guyonthefloor is currently living in a 90x50 acrylic tank which is situated on the floor. His first name is guy, and his last name is onthefloor. He is a simple guy who enjoys nature and sleeping on his wheel. Unfortunately he refuses to pee anywhere else except from his wheel, so we have given in to him since it makes him happy. He enjoys digging in deep dishes of cocopeat wet with iced water - good alternative if you do not have aircon. He has very simple wants, and spends most of his time chilling. When he is unhappy or upset, he barbites or starts chewing at his tank.

Does not like kids unfortunately, as he has been poked around by too many and will instinctively bite children.

Note: He has one wonky eye as his inner eyelid has been torn out by cagemates from his previous owner, so it does not close fully. No special care required, adopters just required to take note that his eye looks funky.

Requirements:
Cage: we prefer a barless tank for him of the current size of 90 x 50 (at minimum) or bigger as he stresses out easily with changes.
Enrichment: Cocopeat required, it calms him down

Ellie, Nina and Luna (Adopted)

Est age - 6 weeks
Species - Winter White Dwarf
Likes - food, mealworms, chicken, silkworm, jerusalem artichoke stems, fresh fruit and veggies, nuts, aircon
Dislikes - loud noises, sudden movements, squeezing them too hard

The babies are triplet sisters who are extremely food motivated. Loves air conditioning and will often come out to sleep belly up to feel the cool air. As they look exactly the same, fosterer prefers that adopters come to interact to decide who to adopt.

For separate adoption only. For adoption of more than one hamster, please prepare a second/third tank as they will fight with each other.

Requirements:

Cage: Barless tank
Enrichment: Thick bedding and multichamber preferred, as we observe this is what they enjoy.

*Note: They do not pee in the sand, instead, they prefer peeing in toilet paper rolls which makes cleanup quite easy

Slomo (Adopted)

Age - est 1 year+
Species - syrian
Likes - food, nuts, sleeping, all treats, mealworms, veggies and fruit,
Current feed - FP delight mix, FP dumbo's mix
Dislikes - not much!

Slomo is a older gentleman who enjoys sleeping and eating when he's awake. He is very gentle, and also very slow. He is on the smaller size, at under 100g now, but still lives his best life. He might have some anxiety issues from his past, so he is insecure about unpouching his food. Requires a more experienced owner who knows how to unpouch a hamster manually as previously he had rotting food in his pouch and may continue doing so due to his anxieties. Overall he is a very chill low energy who does nothing much but sleep and eat. Always stands on 2 feet and asks for cuddles around 11pm onwards, responsive to people walking past his enclosure. good boi 10/10

Requirements
Enclosure size: 80x50cm (strictly no bar cages please, he is gentle and curious but extremely clumsy. tends to fall with legs flailing. this is to prevent him from accidentally breaking his little legs. applicants with samlas will be considered if they meet all other requirements (please note this is a special requirement for Slomo as he makes very minimal movement throughout the day and has a very low activity level. Syrians typically need a cage measuring 80 x 50 or bigger.)

Wheel: wheel size of 25cm (He is a little bit too small and light to turn a 30cm wheel! However brands like SR and trixie are ok as the 30cm wheels are very light)

Diet: Not too fussy about food, but main mix of seed mix required with minimum wet food. He has a history of pouching anxiety and will pouch even wet mash, which rots in his pouches and is hard to remove. Does not like oxbow pellets or bunny nature

Enrichment:
- Prefers sleeping in the open than in hideouts, so minimum just 1 hideout! He does like hideouts with platforms
- THICK burrowable bedding - paper/teabag bedding/birch/aspen bedding are fine, he likes to dig. 10cm thickness to entertain him

Additional:
- knowledge and willingness to palpate his cheekpouch every 1-2 weeks and unpouch if necessary (fosteror will guide you)
- some experience handling hamsters

Casey (Special Care Required) (Adopted)

Species: Dwarf

Estimated age: 1 years old

Gender: Male

Likes: Almost all foods, attention from hooman, sleeping

Fosteror’s Instagram account: @moneytheham

Casey is the best hamster you will ever meet. He is a snuggle bug that loves attention so if you want a hamster that interacts well, he is for you. He is ever alert for any human presence and will scurry to your direction if he senses that you are around. He likes to be held and has never bitten anyone before. He also likes to climb up shirts.

He has won the hearts of every single hooman he has met. One thing his fosterer likes to do is to carry him flat on her palm, and use the other hand to massage his back. He bruxes like crazy! His fosterer has never seen a hamster brux so much and so easily. He is truly comfortable with every human being and it’s a really rare sight. Since he is a chonky boy, he lays down flat on people’s palms like a melted vanilla ice cream or a pancake.

He sleeps in the open when it gets warm and it’s really a sight to see. With his belly exposed to the world and his pink little nose twitching at times, he will melt your heart for sure.

He is a huge glutton and will pouch every single treat he has. His favourite thing to do is to lie down on his back and munch on food that he has pouched. He is living the life ~

Special Care:

However, he is pretty overweight (70g) and often naps at corners. His forever home needs to have sufficient enrichment so that he is inclined to move and lose weight.

His scent gland tends to get clogged very easily. It is recommended that his future adopter knows how to clean/squeeze scent glands OR bring him to the vet to have his scent gland cleaned and squeezed once every 1-2 months so that his scent gland does not get infected.

It should also be noted that his poor immune system results in chronic skin issues (bacterial infection). His future adopter needs to ensure that the cage is clean and bring him to the vet in case of severe fur loss.

Special requirements:

Cage: Minimum 80cm x 50cm. No bars.

Bedding: Fatpouches Teabag Bedding

Cage Set up: A naturalistic set up is encouraged for him to be stimulated and engaged in order to encourage him to move.

Adopter must interact with him everyday, and be prepared for potential vet visits.

Jin (Adopted)

Species: Syrian

Estimated age: 5 months old

Gender: Male

Likes: Almost all foods, veges, free roam

Dislikes: being startled

Fosteror’s Instagram account: @moneytheham

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.

Billy (Adopted)

Species: Dwarf

Estimated age: 5 months

Gender: Male

Likes: Vegetables, Flax seeds, FP premium mix, burrowing, bathing sand

Dislikes: Not comfortable with being picked up

Billy is a super docile hamster, never bites but doesn’t like being overwhelmed with someone touching him, in short, he needs his space and wants to feel comfortable by you only interacting with him from a distance, he will feed from your hand, will let you pet him while he eats, will nip your finger to satisfy his curiosity. He has the potential to be one of those super trusting and friendly hammies if you give him unconditional love, his space, be patient and make your home a safe haven for him

He will use his wheel when its dark at night, and usually pees and poops on his wheel so it needs to be cleaned daily

He likes to burrow, so he would really enjoy having a deep bedding. He sleeps most of the day and comes out to drink water 2-3 times during the day and munches on flax seed sprays, he also stuffs food in his pouch and takes it in his burrow and eats there. He loves to munch on all new snacks and treats that Fat pouches has to offer (spoilt brat, I know)

Requirements

Wheel: he is using a bigger wheel – i.e ~30cm CARNO

Bedding: Oxbow or Fatpouches tea bag bedding

Food: FP premium mix, small quantity of vegetables, mazuri block, Flax seeds spray
