Default Re: What do you do/get for your hamsters for holidays & adoption day?

I agree with Amity, you really don't need to spend much on them to get something they'll enjoy. I used to spend quite a bit on my hamsters but have realised that they're just as happy exploring an egg box or a homemade maze of toilet roll tubes.

I don't tend to do anything for their adoption anniversaries but I will usually give them a small treat based on their favourite foods for their birthdays. For James's 1st birthday in August, I gave him some chicken and a couple of extra mealworms. For Jessie's birthday in January I'm probably going to hang a millet spray from the bars of her cage so she can have fun tearing all the seeds off.

At Christmas I make up treat parcels for them with things like a whimzees chew, a dog biscuit, one of the Harry Hamster Yippee treats and a mix of some seeds and mealworms. They seem to enjoy them just as much.
