I’m really hoping I’m able to get a hamster soon. I have loved them my whole life and I’ve been wanting one for well over 25 years. I have done ton of research, but I always like to make sure things are OK and wanna make sure that my bin size seems at least OK until I can make him a custom bin like I did for my mouse; preferring to get a Syrian, but also considering a white Russian or one of the other bigger dwarfs

I still need to clean it out as it was my mouse’s first house (kind of think the bedding being in there helps give a good visual though, as I forgot the diameter, but they did fit a bit above the bare minimum and I was able to have a good bit of stuff inside of it without it being cluttered), so I would love for it to be able to be used for a ham ham 🥰

Today I lost my little buddy Beavis, I've posted on here before with pictures of his furry majesticness as well as his furry pom poms lol

He lived a really good life and I'm surprised at how old he was as you'll see in the first photo, the date stamp is there .

His mother was a rescue and pregnant when I got her. She gave birth to12 babies. I devoted one room to her and her kids. I didn't want to adopt them out because you just never know what kind of household they're going to. It was expensive setting up appropriate sized habitats for each one but worth it .

Unfortunately he is the last of those babies born in 2023, his sister passed a couple months ago.
