Waffles

Oh! Lol. I think I looked at the wrong earlier post when I was looking at gender.

Her old owners did say she was a boy. I think that's what confused you. Lol. She's doing well all things considered.

Waffles is a girl @Doodleham also has Bruce (boy dwarf hamster) But yes @Doodleham has worked wonders with patience and care.

Thank you so much. That means a lot.

Well things have taken a funny turn here. The hamsters are in the same room as my guinea pigs. So now waffles has decided that every time I am in the room seeing to the guinea pigs in the morning that she needs attention too, and she chews the bars at the front of the cage. It's so funny. Most days now she's wanting out 2x a day. She now walks from glove to glove which is really good. However hands are still a very firm NO! And she still occasionally attacks the glove (mainly the left glove ) I hope this means she's enjoying my company but it's probably just her trying to get more treats.

That does sound funny She's a little madam! Very curious she goes for the left hand - hmmm.,

The left hand is on the heart side, so I wonder if it is a bit warmer and has more of a pulse.

Checks both my hands for temperature ......

I don't know if she'd feel it through a glove. Mind you they're highly sensitive aren't they.

Are you right handed? Maybe she senses that the left hand is the one that moves less?

I'm Left handed.

So it's the opposite then - the left hand is the bigger threat so gets bitten more often!

That's amazing! It must be lovely to have got there with her, glove or no glove! For her actually to sit in your hand and groom.

I know. I wouldn't risk it yet as she does bite hard on occasion.

I was shocked when she did that. She's too cute.
