Hamtaro, my Syrian, hated being pet. You could stroke him a little, but he'd quickly run off to do his own thing. He was really independent. I also used to try brushing his fur with a toothbrush because he was a long-haired Syrian with a really long skirt, but he would get mad and attack the toothbrush, so I stopped doing that. I have a hybrid dwarf now named Penny, and she likes it when you pet her side or stroke her back. She's so tiny, I'm almost afraid to pet her though!
