Such a shame Juno didn't win anything, hopefully she'll get another chance to wow the judges.
Loving Matthew's new cage.
Met Joshua in your introduction thread and what a little cutie.

If only they scored points for being cute! lf she were entered in the Pet Class, she might actually stand a chance but because the Main Show is judged on certain criteria and she's so small, she'll have marks taken off in size. She also lost out in type (shape) as she's too small to really get an idea of her type. She can stay home with James and Jessie (and hopefully a Jamantai pup or two).

James was not best pleased with me the other day because I took his bridge out of his cage so that the visiting Syrians would have something to play with in their cages and this bridge was one of the very few things that was Syrian friendly. However, we've only got one visiting Syrian so James was able to have his bridge back. He sat on it as soon as I put it back in to make sure that I never took it away from him again.

Victoria's fur is starting to grow back although she's still got the scab on her skin split. It had scabbed up several days ago but she'd knocked the scab off whilst she was cleaning herself and the skin underneath had obviously not quite healed. It was unfortunately quite a nasty skin split so I'm hoping that it doesn't leave too much of a scar.

Here she is, being Victoria and milking every chance she can for cuddles.

Juno swears to me that she has been growing although I keep telling her that growing ears does not count unless she wants to be a mouse. Juno thinks that being a mouse is a good idea, particularly as Chinese Hamsters are supposedly known as a 'mouselike hamster'.

Aww poor James! Glad he got his bridge back & is a happy boy again

Sorry to hear Victoria's skin split has been such a bad one, fingers crossed she'll be all healed up very soon & it won't scar.

Juno such cuteness! Who needs to grow when they have ears like that

I love Matthew's new home, it looks really good and interesting for him. I'm sure he'll have plenty fun exploring.

I'm glad that James is happy again now he has his bridge back

Juno and Victoria look beautiful and it's a shame Juno didn't do well at the show. I'm sure she'll have a great time staying at home with Jessie on show days and who knows what mischief the two of them will get up to

Aww, what bliss having a triple dose of cuteness seeing pics of handsome James, cuddly Victoria, and the adorable, "mousey" Juno!!! I had the hugest smile on my face when I saw these gorgeous photos. I'm glad that James has his treasured bridge back and thought it quite silly that he on it to protect it from being taken away again. I hope that Victoria's skin split heals without leaving any scar. She is quite a beauty, and I just love how she is wrapped around your thumb. That photo just captures my heart. Juno aspiring to be like a mouse with big ears is so precious. Regardless of her petite size, she has enormous charm going for her. As the saying goes, "The best things in life come in small packages!".

I have come to the conclusion that my Chinese are the masters of manipulation. You already know about James being upset that I’d taken his bridge away and I think I told you about Vicky’s disapproval of a wooden level being added to her cage. This time it was Jessie’s turn... I had to rearrange the hamster room because Matthew’s tank is too awkward to put on the shelving unit. I decided I’d put Matthew’s tank on the bookcase and Jessie would move from the bookcase on to the shelving unit. I put her on the fourth shelf which is underneath Vicky and Juno adjacent to Joshua. Unfortunately Madam was not happy with this so my other option was to put her on the second shelf where Matthew’s cage had come from but that was adjacent to James, which really is the worst combination given her track record for flirting with him so I had to move James. At the moment he’s at the very top, next to the spare show pens but I could move him next to Joshua, I haven’t decided yet.

(The things I do to keep those Chineseys happy)

I had both Juno and Joshua out on Saturday for their health checks and you know how people say that Robos are the smallest species of hamster? Well Juno begs to differ. She is smaller than he is and weighs 5g less than he does.

It sounds like a puzzle trying to work out where the best place is to put everyone to avoid hamtrums and flirting lol.

I hope you manage to work out a combination that keeps them all happy, and you too of course

Awww poor little Juno, smaller than a robo, oh dear but as they say good things come in small packages so don't you worry Juno

I’m sure Jessie would love to be given a 24/7 opportunity to flirt with James but I doubt James would be less keen.

Nevertheless, it seems like my little diva is happy with the new arrangements, I decided to put James on the same shelf as Joshua and he seems indifferent to it so for now everyone seems happy with the arrangements.
