Second chance hamsters

[RainbowBrite]

I can imagine how hard it was for him not having a the opportunity to run when he badly wanted to. Now he can run it must be so exciting for him.

Glad to hear Toby's personality is emerging - I bet the out of cage time really did him good. He'll probably want it regularly now

Get in the queue Toby. You need to make it very clear to Beryl you want out

Toby coming out of his taxi tube.

Aw he's lovely. He's doing well to come out at that angle!

 

[Member ID2]

Vertical for the photo and then i laid the tube down for him to walk out.

Just catching up, sounds like you’re doing a great job to accommodate Toby’s needs. He did look a bit erratic in the first video but much more settled now you’ve made some other changes and removed the loft. Great to hear he’s enjoying his out of cage time too. Lovin the pictures of Davy, he’s settled so well

Let's see how this set up goes down with him.

Hi Beryl, what make is the wheel in Toby's cage and can you attach it to the bars?

 

[Member ID2]

It's a MouseBro on a height adjustable stand. I've never checked if it attaches to the bars because its the Robos spare wheel and they live in tanks.

 

[Member ID2]

I've just checked online and it does attach to the bars. It comes in two sizes and five colours.

Thank you Beryl

A sniffing Toby.

 

[RainbowBrite]

Aw, I love the way he sniffs in the air. He is so cute! I wonder what he could smell.

 

[Member ID2]

Toby likes his linseeds.

 

[Member ID2]

It's nice to see him sit and eat. He loves that Asda jar sandbath and sits in there washing before he gets active. I'm glad he's starting to enjoy his things instead of just racing around.

 

[RainbowBrite]

It is lovely. Sounds like he just took a little more time to feel settled.

Yes and i got his set up wrong the first time round. I really appreciate the input of people on here who helped me to improve things for Toby.

You soon realised what Toby needed and changed it for him. This is why you are so good with gaining hamsters trust. You really listen to them and treat them as individuals.

I love the video and photo of Toby. He is so sweet

Aw that's a lovely video of Toby I wonder what he was sniffing - had you been cooking? He seems to really like the hemp mat on top of the jar. A kind of cosy place to sit maybe. Good you found something that works for him. Maybe that's why he was racing around - looking for something he needed that wasn't there - like a particular cosy corner or snacking place.
