Thank you all for the warm welcome! It's lovely to meet you all ^-^
I've bought a Ferplast Criceti 15 but already have guilt knawing at me in the knowledge that it's just barely the minimum requirement, I'm feeling I ought to prepare a bin cage too in case hammy outgrows it. Being a university student that moves at least once a year, I can't get a large cage/Ikea tank, so I guess I ought to hop into the DIY threads and look up bin cages?
I've enquired at Austin's Hamster Haven and also have my eye on Custard Hamstery's upcoming litters- I hope I can adopt, if possible. Would you happen to know if there are currently any other active Northern breeders/rescue centres around the Leeds/Manchester area please? (Hello neighbour! @Robean
