Funny, furry little hamsters give no indication of their tendency to eat humans. Perfect for the in-laws kids. Make sure you keep them very hungry just before giving them away.

Hamster's are very solitary creatures and very rarely enjoy being held, even more so, they do not play or interact well with other pets. These animals have been pawned off as being good pets for small children and it couldn't be farther from the truth. Small children have a tendency to hold animals a bit to tightly. Such actions generally produce a bit from a hamster, and the unwillingness for future human interaction. They make decent pets for older, more experienced handler's, and for people that aren't interested in too much interaction.

i had hamster, i really like these animals but they dont live long. I was so sad when mine died :(. Thats why i give 3

Fat, smelly, mean little piles of fluff. I'd rather own a sewer rat.

Cute but boring. And they make so much mess and noise. The are only good for kids, not a very interesting pet at all.

I love hamsters. Their cute, soft, and playful. They're great for children.

They make excellent pets, and are a constant source of entertainment. They're always running, climbing, chewing, or just being cute!
