I have also an adopted Robo from pets@home but he's still a bit shy. Like you, i'm also still learning about dwarves. It's great to be on this friendly site to share stories, photos and queries.

Tip: get him a small whimzee dog chew, hamsters love them.
Niko loves pumpkin seeds! Way to any animals heart is through its stomach. My rats really liked yoghurt drops which hammy's can also have. Today he let me hold him and he happily sat on my hand for a couple of minutes and stroke him while he had a pumpkin seed. Patience is key. On day one he was quite skittish more than my Syrian was (that I can remember, I was 7 or .

If I'd known they like whimzee treats I wouldn't have donated mine as my dogs can have them
