So I brought home the two hybrid sisters today and I am so glad I did! They were in such a small space with only a food dish and water bottle :(.

Pepper is such a little character. She is so friendly and surprisingly very tame. She loves to be held and will squeek for me to pick her up. I have made two bin cages for them with lots of space and toys.

Pepper running on a wheel. She ran like no tomorrow! :)

Pumpkin is the total opposite of Pepper. She's very scared of people. Which the reason could be because their previous owner sprayed her with water when she was too loud!!! I had to resist the urge to smack her up side the head! I know Pumpkin will require a lot of work but I'm looking forward to making her trust people again! The previous owner said that she was the "bad one". Well I kindly told her there was no such thing as bad animals, it's bad owners. Maybe not smart on my part but I felt so bad for these poor girls and the life they were living.

I was able to get a quick picture of Pumpkin eating. :)

Update on Pepper.

She has settled in extremely well, almost as if she has always been here. :) I just love how friendly and loveable she is! She will give us a little squeek and wait till we pick her up.

She is very active and extremely fast! It's so hard to get a picture of her. :p

Sorry I'm not sure why my pics are posting upside down.?????

Update on Pumpkin

Pumpkin has slowly started to come around. The first few days she would not come anywhere near us and run and hide as soon as she heard us. Then she would slowly start taking food/treats from me and then run and hide. Today during playtime, she came on to my hand!!!! I could have jumped for joy!!!! :) it's a work in progress but we are getting there!!

I tried to get the best picture I could but like Pepper, Pumpkin is extremely fast!!! :)

Yes I would recommend it. All my hamsters love playing on it and you can keep adding to it too. :)
