Can Syrian hamsters have citris? I know they can have cheerios, peas, lettuce, carrots, water melon, etc. I even heard somewhere that they can have un-buttered un-salted popcorn! If anyone sees anything, tell me.

Nuuuu. Citrus is bad for hamsters. I'd be careful with watermelon and carrot as well. But that's just me being overly cautious

All of my boys love a popcorn string I buy cheap unpopped unflavoured corn kernals put them in a big glass bowl with a loose fitting lid and pop in the microwave. Then for the rats I thread the corn onto string or tie it into paper bags for them to work for. I have even scattered it across the top cage bars so they have to pull it through. Greyjoy gets one or two pieces when I do a batch hidden somewhere for him to dig up. I avoid giving it to the gerbils as I have one gerbil who is on the chunky side and cannot have treats.

Thanks! Glad I haven't gave them any! Does anybody know if they can have cheese?

Yup, they can have cheese. Ask my cheese addict, Izu.
