Hi all,
Maybe I'm worrying too much, but Molly seems to spend a lot of time sleeping, or just sat in her bed. :(
We've had her nearly 2 weeks now, and she seems scared to come out and jumps at the slightest thing (she even makes herself jump sometimes!) and I sometimes see what appears to be shivering, but the room is a normal temperature, with no drafts, so I'm assuming she is just scared. I've been getting her out nearly everyday, and we talk to her all the time so she gets used to our voices, but doesn't seem to be calming down. I'm worried about giving her a heart attack or something, the amount of times she is getting spooked!
I know all hamsters are different, but compared to Stewie she seems to be taking a while to get used to us, and I'm worried I'm doing something wrong. :shock:
