ALL  ABOUT  SIBERIAN  DWARF  HAMSTERS          

Introduction:

Yay! I got a hamster. This is awesome. This is a normal reaction, but the first thing that will come to mind is “How do I take care of my hamster?” As everyone knows, a hamster can't survive alone. The hamster needs care. This article will tell you everything about what you need to know about hamsters.

Chapter 1:

What should you get before a hamster? Well, it’s a question that’s commonly asked. First of all you need, I repeat need, a cage. Without a cage, the hamster will get easily lost. They can run up to 15 miles per hour for 2 hours straight. Also a hamster will try to escape at any point, so don’t be surprised if your hamster gets away. Another crucial piece of equipment is a wheel. This is very important too. Without the wheel, your hamster would suffer from lack of exercise. Even more, some wood or paper shavings are needed for bedding. Paper shavings are better because sometimes hamsters end up eating the wood ones. Anyway, a hamster will need clean bedding, so make sure that you always have some shavings ready at all times. And a last thing to include in their home is made a home made out of a empty and large yogurt container. After that you are good to go.

Another commonly asked question is what would they eat? A list of yummy foods a Siberian Dwarf hamster can eat are: boiled rice, tomatoes, carrots, bananas, grapes, melon, kale, cucumber, sweet corn on the cob, grass, peas, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, dandelion leaves, and bean sprouts. Whoa! Thats a lot of food! As a special treat, you may serve your hamster a small pancake, but it has to be plain and especially no butter or maple syrup! Also you may make your own hamster treat! Take a graham cracker, smear on some peanut butter and spread some nuts or sunflower seeds on the treat.Viola! You have just made a hamster treat! Let your hamster nibble and enjoy.

Chapter 3

You may be devastated by seeing that your hamster is sick, but an interesting fact is that the hamster can catch a virus from you. If your hamster starts having diarrhea, exhibits weakness, losses weight or appetite, seems in pain, exhibits ruffled fur, or has a wet tail means that your hamster is sick, and requires doctor action right away. Remember, if you see something, do something.

Chapter 4

This is one of the most important things to do. Well the number one thing you need to do daily and weekly is feed your hamster. If you wouldn't feed the hamster, it would pass. Also if you don't clean the cage, it would spend it’s life in a dirty and smelly house.  You must contribute to your hamster’s needs.
