Smile Hello!

Hi all - my name is Jen and my family just got an adorable Syrian hamster for our 9-year-old son. He is at sleepaway camp right now, so I have been taking care of the little guy. His name is Teddy and he is very sweet, tame and playful. Here he is snacking on his favorite treat - sweet potato!

I have been playing with him every night (either in his ball or in the bathtub with a towel laid down). He likes to be handled and pet a lot. Any other tips on keeping him happy? We are first time hamster guardians! Thanks so much.
