Wink Hello to you all and thanks for being here!

Hi, everyone! I am a new first-time hamster mom who has been following a number of posts here and decided it’s a time to introduce myself. A month ago I brought home an adorable sandy-colored Syrian hamster who is about three months old now. Her name is Chiclet, in honor of my late parents, whose favorite brand of gum was Chiclets, and the name just seemed perfect for her. As far as taming, we have made it past a few frightened bites of my finger to a place where she will now comfortably sit in my hand – although not for long; she’s quite active and wants to run run run! She can be a literal handful, and I am 100% besotted with her. She already has me wrapped around her little paw.

I also want to thank all of you for the wealth of advice and information and support that I see in this forum. This is such a great resource, especially for us newbies out here!

Hi and welcome to HC! ^_^ Chiclet sounds wonderful and sweet, and it seems she's really taken a liking to you. As a newbie myself, I agree this forum is a great community to be in.

Thanks, Cypher. She is a darling little girl. Hopefully I’ll be able to post a picture of her someday.

Thank you, Josie! Chiclet gets more playful and interactive each day. WHY did I wait so long to do this????? It’s such a joy to have a happy little hamster. Hope I can continue to help keep her that way....

Hi and welcome to the good ship HC, looking for ward to seeing a pic or two of Chiclet maybe you could start a thread of her own in the Syrian section. Enjoy your hammy they are such crazy intelligent and lovable little things.

Trying to get more familiar with using this forum, and I'm going to try to attach a picture of my precious Chiclet...
