Hey, don't worry. I remember my first hamster, Alfie. Granted, he was a Syrian, but he was terrified of people when we first got him. The most skittish little thing you ever saw! I didn't make any progress with him for probably a good 3 or 4 weeks and I was terrified he'd always be like that. Then, we discovered that he loved broccoli so much that he would sit on my hands to eat it and bam - overnight, things became a lot easier. Other hamsters owned by both me and my brother were easier to train initially, but none of them were ever as cuddly as Alfie ended up. What I'm saying, is don't give up hope now as a fortnight is not long at all. Keep trying and ninety nine times out of one hundred your efforts will pay off.
