This post has been a long time coming. In September, we decided to foster a female hybrid from the Starlight Trust. I had adopted her brother, Eric, in January who is a very friendly and active hamster. I knew the remaining 6 girls left at the rescue were also very friendly little characters but they were not getting homes.
When I mentioned getting a new hamster to hubby, he grumbled - something about having too many hamsters. Not that he doesn’t like hamsters, he loves them but we both wondered whether we’d be able to give the hamsters enough quality time if we had three! So fostering sounded like a good idea.
Peaches was one of the most active hamsters at the rescue and probably needed a home more urgently than the others. So we took her in. She is absolutely adorable and makes us laugh all the time. She gets in our trouser legs and climbs all over us. She has this way of gently nibbling us and it tickles. We call her our little lunatic because she is so fast she’s runs like a flash.
A few weeks in and we had fallen in love with her. Hubby fell faster and harder than I could imagine so we decided to keep her:D
This is Peaches. I’ve never been able to take a video of her running around because she’s too fast!
