There aren't any Chinese hammys in Buffalo anymore. All the pet store vendors aren't breeding them. But in Rochester, NY, an hour drive, there is a male Chinesey.
They just have the one that's been in the store for a long time I believe. The store says he's 5 mo old but he was there along with 2 other Chinesey when I adopted Paris 3 mo ago.
They said that after he's gone they are not selling anymore Chinese hamsters. Think I should get him? I already have 6 hamsters so I don't need anymore but since they are extinct now maybe I should get him?
When I saw him the 1st time he looked like one of his eyes wasn't blinking right & the other male in the cage with him had the same blinking problem. Could be nothing? If he does have something wrong that would be a vet visit.
The pet stores say they plan on never carrying them, ever again. So should I drive to Rochester & rescue this male or forget about it? I could keep checking Craigslist & SPCA or I could drive to Rochester?
Edit: Decided not to get him
Hope he finds a good home soon
