Default Hamster Happiness Again!

Hi there! Stumbled across this brilliant forum last night! My name's Aisling and I'm in Ireland. My last hammy died seven years ago and there followed a long break! I've had two dwarves called Kip and Fidget, a Campbell's called Roly and two wonderful longhaired Syrians, Ted and Ellie.

I've had the hamster bug SO bad in recent months that eventually I just had to cave in. Two days ago I adopted Percy from a **lovely** teenage girl who had outgrown her. Percy is about eighteen months and such a delight. Her previous owner took amazing care of her and she's had tons of handling and is tame and confident. I feel very lucky her owner trusted me to give her into my care. What also really impressed me was that she had researched EVERYTHING - and I mean, everything! Percy was in a 100cm enclosure, had the correct sized running wheel and flying saucer, all the enrichment she could want, and such an amazing variety of nibbles, from cranberries, pumpkin seeds, whimzees, Bonios, walnuts in the shell, monkey nuts...

Anyways Percy (my profile pic) says hi from her Savic Hamster Heaven Metro. I am feeling a bit guilty about the cage size (590 square inches/ 80cmx100cm) but she has a playpen too. I love her!

The hamster heaven is 80 x 50 x 50, not 100.

Sounds like you have a well cared for hamster to enjoy. Look forward to hearing more about her.

She was in a 100cm DIY enclosure. Now she's in the Savic.

Hello and welcome to HC! I am sorry to hear of your previous hammies' passings to the Rainbow Bridge, but I'm pleased that the hammy hole in your heart is now thoroughly filled with your adorable Percy. He has such an endearing face and lovely coloring, btw. I'm sad that his previous owner outgrew him, but I'm confident that Percy and you will have a lovely time together. Congrats on giving him his loving, forever home with you. I look forward to seeing you around the forum and getting to know Percy. Is he named after Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson? I love all of his book series.

Eros says Hi and waves a tiny paw to you both.
