Type R (nickname: riri) is the runt of her litter, but don’t let her size fool you—she’s built for speed! This tiny dynamo is always on the move. She absolutely lives for her wheel and will run for hours, even taking little naps on her wheel.

Unlike some of her more dramatic siblings, Type R is relatively comfortable around humans. She’s happy to take treats and go about her day without much fuss, though she’s always ready to dart away. She's still a baby, so she needs some time to warm up to being handled and being around humans.

Type R will thrive in a home that can provide her with plenty of space, a good wheel, and enrichment to keep her active little mind and body engaged. If you’re looking for a tiny hamster with the heart of a race car, she’s the one for you!
