They do tend to use it as a toilet though and maybe a place to sit and wash. It's not so essential for Syrians as it is for dwarf hamsters and they do a good job of cleaning themselves by licking themselves all over.

Some people think the sand can dry their fur too much so I just leave a dish of sand in the cage in the toilet area and clean that out every 5 days or so - it helps keep the clean Our hammies have always pee'd in the sand but tend to poop elsewhere, which is ok as their poops aren't dirty and they hoard them for extra food supplies sometimes (they sometimes eat them as they have two stomachs and can redigest nutrients from the poops).

Thank you for the information! Yeah I was wondering if it was more to see where it goes. Good to know that syrians don't even need a sand bath. (Save money!) He has a designated potty area.

So... I have a spoiled hamster. Herman doesn't care for his usual treats anymore. Instead of eating them he places them in his little hands and then throws the treat to the ground.

Current treats: Cashew and dry natural oat meal grains.

Any suggestions?

Hahaha that sounds so cute. Try sunflower seeds. They love it. But don't give too much of them since its very fattening. I also give dried mealworms, hazelnuts and pumpkin seeds as treats.

Thanks for the advice with the treats!

Herman update: I cleaned his cage. And he had a reaction to it... pics below...
