Lucy (F) - Adopted

Lucy is an extremely skittish girl. However she loves food and will come

running out whenever her food bowl is being filled. She spends her day hidden

in her burrows. She will run away and hide in her burrows if you try to grab

her, so be patient in handling her. Fosterer gives her loads of forage so that

she will resurface from her burrows time to time in search of food. You can

Gray is an extroverted fella, he loves to run out to greet his fosterer when she’s home and hovers over to see if he will be rewarded with any treats like his favourite pine nuts. He requires some patience in handling as he runs away super fast if you try to grab him. However he’s a very interactive and food motivated hamster. He loves to design beautiful burrows and run on his flying saucer with such grace and speed. You can take a look at the fosterer’s IG for more cute videos of Gray!!! 

Juvia (F) - Adopted

Likes: pine nuts, forage, hiding 

Dislikes: sudden noises, being held, being grabbed 

Juvia is a very shy girl and requires some time before she will approach you. She enjoys treats and loves burrowing. Juvia is very sweet and will accept treats from your hands. With more time and love, she is bound to open up to you to be a very loving girl! Fosterer gives her loads of forage so that she will resurface from her burrows time to time. You can take a look at the fosterer’s IG for more cute videos of Juvia!!! 

NATSU (M) - Adopted

Likes: sleeping in weird positions, pine nuts, forage, treats

Dislikes: sudden loud noises, being grabbed 

Natsu is a very silly boy who loves to sleep in the weirdest positions. As a baby he would lie on his back and sleep, totally cute!! Now he sleeps at the corner of his cage, wedged between his sand bath and the walls of the cage. He’s still skittish and will run when he hears really loud sudden noises, but overall is a very curious and interactive boy. Very chill whenever he’s in your palm and accepts rewards of pine nuts. He doesn’t like to be grabbed so patience in handing him will be required. However you can slowly introduce treats like pine nuts with your fingers and he will gently receive them. These make wonderful bonding sessions! He loves little pats and is okay to be held. You can take a look at the fosterer’s IG for more cute videos and photos of Natsu!!!! 

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
