Introducing Dr. Evil

This is Dr.Evil, my little cutie. I got him about 2 weeks ago, and he is slowly getting used to me. He either has never been handled before or was handled wrongly. He is ok to being picked up but will bite if you just introduce your hand to him. Working slowly everyday (wearing gloves!) to get him used to me.

Good luck with the taming

Hello taedavis. My dwarfies, Toffee & Almond do the same thing. They are cage aggressive. Once they are out of their home they are so much nicer. I use suede gardening gloves to get them out. They nibble the glove and then hop on my hand. Both love their playpen. Hope the taming goes well. Dr. Evil...gotta love it

I don't know if I'm too late, but I have a few hamsters who are cage aggressive as well, it really doesn't bother me as long as I can hold them once they're out. How's taming going?
