Re: New hamster
What species is she? How is she housed? And what have you tried?

Re: New hamster
Not all hamsters respond to the same methods. I'm not really sure what you mean by on the lid of the ball. How is she with you? Does she willingly take treats? Can you stroke her? The tissue may help get her more used to your scent. I would have thought she was used to that by now but can't hurt. Put some toilet paper up your sleeve/down your top for a while & then place it in her cage for bedding.

Re: New hamster
So she's getting to be a little old lady then It sounds like it's going okay if she takes treats from you. She may be too set in her ways to want to be handled but at least she's happy to have your hand in her cage from the sound of it.
