Have Bubbles out in the morning when im opening my prezzies or will it stress him if i take too long? he will be in his playpen with a few toys etc. or should I just leave it?

If bubbles is awake and happy to come out.. Just look for signs that he wants to go back to bed

Ok... he is usually awake in the morning about 8:00 which is something like the time im getting up cant wait for santa LOL

I will probably have Thistle out for a bit in her travel cage as she wakes up early and always wants to know whats going on Im sure as long as it isnt too noisey Bubbles will enjoy being out with you

Ours will all be out in the morning
We're making sure we get up early enough for them to be awake so they can have their presents and stuff, and the dwarves will all have run time. The plan is to let them have run time until they want to go to bed, so they'll decide how long they're out for tomorrow.
Scamp will get "climbing over humans time" instead lol

We decided Christmas should be shared with them, so we're actually focusing the morning around them. We'll either open our presents when Scamp wants her ball, or we'll wait until after they've all gone to sleep if needed.

As long as the hamster is happy to be out, I think its nice for them to be out at Christmas, and I'm sure no hamster will object to extra time out of their cage (unless they love the cage and hate being out in which case forcing them out at Christmas might be mean).

If anyone isn't awake we'll let them out later instead though.
