Smile Introducing Sundae! My white face robo

Went to P@H with my mum to buy dog stuff and decided to check what hamsters they had (never a good idea haha). I fell completely in love with a little white face roborovski boy and had to buy him. I fully believe in 'love at first sight' when it comes to hamsters (even if I am actually blind) So, introducing my little Sundae!

I've had him for around 2 weeks now and he's fully tamed out of his cage but inside his cage he's still very shy and runs away from my hand if I move too quickly.

He's currently in a slightly modified (aka I cut a hole in the base for a previous hammy and rearranged the tubes) mini Duna Fun (top platform removed because he kept jumping off) and I have a bin cage ready to upgrade him if he needs more space.
He completely switched over from the P@H hamster food they were feeding him in just under a week! I don't blame him though, it looks like budget Harry Hamster with 10x more corn! He's currently on Burgess Dwarf Hamster food with the occasional carrot as a treat.

Alpacassei, I can see why it was love at first sight; Sundae is too precious and adorable. I love his extra fluffiness and sweet, white face. What a great name, too! I look forward to getting to know more about this cuddly hammy and see more pics, too. Great pics, btw! My favorite is him snoozing in his tube. It looks like he was having a lovely dream!

What a lovely looking hamster! Sounds like you are doing well with taming.

Thank you everyone!!

Either I'm very lucky or the P@H staff had been taming them already (do they do that?) because he hasn't bitten me once and feels comfortable enough to wash himself while I'm holding him!

I love watching him run around his cage and climb through his toys! He can run so fast, it's adorable He reminds me of a soft little jelly bean. Yesterday I saw him using his wheel inside out! He was standing outside his wheel on his back legs and using his front paws to 'run' on the outside of his wheel!!

Congratulations on Sundae, he's truly adorable and very cute. I love his name too.
I'm sure P@H do that, one thing about them is they do interact with all the pets there as they hold classes to the public.

Omg I love Sundae! He's adorable. Can't believe he's kind of tame already! I've had three from Pets At Home over the years and they've all been terrified at first! One of them, Pepsi, sadly never got tame and was terrified for her entire life and never warmed to human interaction at all! We loved her just the same of course but never got to handle her or anything. My current ham is from P a H and he was not used to being handled at all but is getting used to it now luckily. Enjoy little Sundae, what a sweet name as well!

I'm so glad that Sundae is already quite tame and is comfortable enough to groom while you hold him. How sweet and adorable! Have fun with your precious ham.
