On the original topic (can't help with gaming addictions), my other half was initially interested in my hams, and although he doesn't DISLIKE them, he thinks I had too many, he would watch them for me, and sometimes get them out of the playpen and hold them if I had to make a mid-playtime toilet trip. But for the most part, he's no longer actively interested.
I found that I caused this because I got too many hamsters, and he felt it was excessive. However I still get upset with him for not loving them the way that I do, (although he was upset + misses Sandy and Alfie).
So I know how you feel about the 'uninterested' thing, I know he sounds more interested than your OH, but given that the hamsters originally lived with him, it's quite a big change.
I hope you reduce the gaming thing
Re: Anyone else married to someone not thrilled with your pets?
Work want me to write up on gaming addiction as I'm the only one on the crew who has had it. Personally, I'd smack him round the head and tell him to stop taking me for granted. I took my fiancé for granted and I got so bad when he tried to take my consoles from me I threatened to break up with him and never talk to him again. -.- 
He likes her because she is sociable but Kaiji is badly behaved, he doesnt come out of his house at all until he knows we are all gone and it is pitch black and bites when he is taken out (I try to handle him to get used to me but I get a lot of painful bites, also I need to take him out to give im health checks...im paranoid that I wouldn't even know if anything was wrong with him). I also have a robo that doesn't like being held and it stresses her out too much so he thinks she is pointless too. He says he is indifferent about the rats. I think he'd like them if they didnt smell as much but being young males I think they are bound to smell. I've been told not to clean them out more often than once a week though as apparently they'll scent mark more which I was originally doing at the beginning.
