Thumbs up Welcome Kylo Ren

I have had my Russian Dwarf Hamster (has the colouring of a winter white but pets at home helpfully didn't specify) Kylo Ren for coming onto 3 weeks now. He is a sapphire coloured dwarf with very long whiskers and an intense love or pumpkin seeds. I got him from the Pets at Home adopt section. According to the poster next to his display cage, he 'doesn't fit in with the others'; this probably means he was in a pair and fought so the previous owner brought him back to the shop. Although, when I asked for an approximate age they said 1 and a half months and he did look very pup like so I do not see how a pair that young fought. But that's beside the point. Currently, He is staying in a temporary cage that is only 38 x 57 cm (the Pets at home wire hamster cage large) whilst I wait for the Alaska hamster cage to arrive from zooplus.
The taming process is going well as we are at the handling stage but it has been hard with the small door of the cage (this will be changed with the new cage's arrival). Yes, Kylo is named after Kylo Ren from Star Wars

Hello Kylo Ren
He's gorgeous!

It's not unusual for one to get picked on when they have a bunch of babies in the tank & when that happens they take them out & put them in the adoption section so I expect that's what happened with your little guy, he's about the age they usually sell them too.
They wouldn't specify about species as in spite of his WW colouring he will be a hybrid, they all are in pet shops.

Kylo Ren is SO cute. I love his name, too. I also was expecting to see an adorable black hammy so it was a great surprise, lol. I look forward to getting to know this darling and seeing more of his cuteness and personality when he settles in a bit more. Have fun with him and congrats on giving his a loving home with you.
