Default Re: All About My Humbug

Yippee, I'm so thrilled for you that you now have the adorable Humbug to love and cherish, SKB! Wow, having your first male hammy is exciting, too! I can totally understand having my heart melted by such a sweet, cutie pie like Humbug. He has already stolen my heart, too, and I'm in total love with him. I'm so sorry that he had to have his paw amputated, but I am so relieved that it is healing very nicely and doesn't seem to make hamstering around difficult for him. He is quite the brave, little trooper, lol. I totally love his cute name and all of his wonderful nicknames. I also love all of his great pics, especially the last one in his introduction post and the first pic, second Christmas pudding pic, and the second to the last pic in your second post. Wow, it is so amazing how his coat color changed so dramatically! He is lovely and handsome no matter what coat color he is sporting at the time. He is so endearing and precious; I am so happy for the both of you. Humbug chose well when he got you for his loving, devoted Mum. I know he will totally thrive with your exceptional care. I look forward to keeping up with all of his wonderful updates and seeing him in all of his great pics.

Humbug, you have a terrific Mum!!! You are so lucky. Please give her tons of cuddles and continue to make her smile every day because she deserves to always be happy. Welcome to HC family; you are AWESOME!!!!

Thank you teamlamont, Coco61, Serendipity7000, cypher, pinkpixie, BorisPasha, mangoandmimi, Pazzie and dreamtree1234.

A Little Teapot

Humbug is still doing tremendously his personality is really blossoming he is so inquisitive, who loves food (currently as I type he sat in his food bowl eating) and is an absolute sweetie. I really enjoy our evening cuddles where he will happily walk from hand to hand occasionally likes to give my hand a nibble in the hope of my finger being a tasty treat although to his disappointment it isn't. The other day when cuddling him he decided to climb up my jumper and sit on my shoulder. Also I will allow him to have run around on the floor to fulfil his desire to explore - I have set up a playpen for him too - which he enjoys especially poking his nose through the crack in the cork log as I talk to him - but he has the sweetest little nose.

Plus Humbug is also now familiar with my voice and when called he will come out to investigate - as most of the time I call him out to try a new treat which most of the time gets his approval although cooked chicken he had no interest in what so ever instead wanted a cuddle. He's been loving broccoli that the other day when I walked into my bedroom I caught him with his mouth stuffed with a small floret - it was adorable but couldn't get a photo!

I am currently waiting for his (and Liquorice's) new food to arrive from Rodipet should be coming any day now - which I'm sure he will love. Just my impatient self wish it was hear already but I'm sure the wait will be worth it.

When I was out shopping the other day in my town's high-street getting a few bits for myself, I found the cutest little ceramic teapot bird feeder as soon as I saw it I was like that would be so perfect for Humbug and then realised it was reduced to £4.93 I was like Humbug needs a little teapot! This is one thing I love about having a Russian as well as a Syrian as it easier to find cute ceramic items for them. Then that evening when he was out for his evening cuddle I couldn't resist doing a little photoshoot with Buggy sitting in his teapot - the photos are just too cute!


Humbug is getting quite spoilt with new things - he also awaiting the arrival of his new wheel as his wooden wheel is not standing up well to him peeing in it. Even though I have coated it with several layers of plastikote - it difficult to fully seal the wheel when their a slight gap where the cork track meets the wheel - that when I have washed his wheel the water has caused the outer layer of the wheel to start to separate from the wheel - I have tried regluing it together but its not holding. I wanted to get him a 9" silent runner but everywhere seems to be out of stock at the moment but have managed to find a second hand one (my 12" silent runner was also purchased second hand too) - so he should have a nice wheel very soon. He is not spoilt in the slightest

Thank you Coco61 and cypher, he makes the perfect sweet treat at teatime. Like Liquorice the way Humbug looks at me with his mesmerising eyes I just cant help myself spoil them both - they know exactly what they are doing plus know I cant say no to them.

Humbug's First Taste of His Rodipet Food

Well my rodipet order arrived late yesterday evening at 7pm, which was later than I was expecting it to come however as soon as it arrived and I opened the box making sure everything was good in the box I went straight to my bedroom to give both Humbug and Liquorice their rodipet food to try. Humbug was awake initially however disappeared off back to one of his nest when I went to place his mix in his cage for him to try. A little later on I began to hear some rustling and his nose emerging from his fitch that I called his name - his nose was twitching as he was intently sniffing his way to his new food. Once he discovered his new food he began to tuck straight in - so I think he approve of his which is great as he will be switched completely over to this new mix. I do really like his new mix as it contains no processed pellets plus it smells wonderful - it so nice to have a mix tailored to especially for hybrids too.

So here Humbug tucking into his rodipet food...


plus a bonus photo of him enjoying a dried shrimp ...

OMG, Humbug peering out of his adorable teapot is just too precious for words! He is just the cutest ever, SKB!!! I definitely agree that the sweet teapot was made especially for him; they go together perfectly and he is totally worthy of all of the extra spoiling and then some, lol. . I totally love his two latest sets of pics; he is so photogenic, and his coat coloring is spectacular. It is a definite melter of hearts.
