Default Re: Zylvan, another new man in my life!

I wouldn't say they're dirty or dirtier Hamsterita, they're actually quite fastidious about keeping clean it's just that they do tend to like peeing in the wheel! Mostly Chinese though, my Russians have all been easy to litter train, peeing in the wheel is no problem though you just clean that instead of where ever else they might go!
It only looks a bit gross as they tend to eat in the wheel sometimes & get sand in it too so it all gets mixed up together in a nice layer of gunk

I hardly dare say it but Zylvan is doing his best to prove me wrong lol! he's been out & pleased to see me every morning since I said he wasn't coming out in the morning any more, I hope he didn't hear me saying that or he might try to prove me wrong again

Hmmm I'd say, based on Mushu, that Syrians can be pretty dirty! Mushu definitely pees in his wheel and I strongly suspect that he also pees in his house... I was hoping he would establish a wet corner as all my past hamsters gave, but so far he seems to just go anywhere lol.

It's been such a long time since I updated Zylvan's thread poor guy must feel a bit left out!
He really is the sweetest little man, everything about him is so gentle & delicate, I love him to bits
He is tame now but still quite timid & startles easily so I don't tend to stick the camera in his face & don't have photos but I did get a vid of him the other day as he'd been doing some after lights out begging & was happily sat there nibbling his mealworm so I thought I'd take a chance & for once it didn't bother him so maybe I'll try more often now.


Zylvan & his mealworm.

I'm so happy for you that your sweetie is now so tame and doesn't seem to be bothered by the videoing. Hopefully, that is a sign that taking pics with your camera might be acceptable to him soon, too. Great to see a video of the adorable and charming Zylvan nibbling on his mealworm. He is SO cute!!!!

Aww I'm glad Zylvan is tame now He's got such a perfect little face. I like that he has his ears up listening, just in case anyone was thinking about pinching his mealworm

Thanks BP, he does look quite alert with those little ears up bless him but then a ham does have to be careful with his mealworms
