Default I adopted another hamster :)

Yayh, so a few weeks ago I adopted another Syrian hamster. My first long haired girl.
I named her little miss sunshine AKA Sunny.
I got her from Austin's Hamster Haven.
Would you believe she was from the same group that Star was rescued with. Sunny had been at the rescue for 5 months, so although I was looking for a younger, possibly male hamster this time, I couldn't leave her there any longer, her cage was also above Star's when they were both at the rescue so I just had to take her. I also remembered her from when I was looking last time as she needed a quiet home, and I have a quiet home, but was worried about her being long haired as I have never had a long haired (nothing to worry about, not sure why I was worried) Anyway I guess it was meant to be as I ended up adopting her in the end. I just thought she deserved her own proper home, especially in time for xmas so she can get extra spoilt.
She was very scared when she arrived, screeching poor thing. But we took it very slowly and she loves her food very much, she will stand by the front door and call for me. I just love how all hamsters are different. She's coming on leaps and bounds and i just love her fluffy butt.


Anyway this is a little video about her

A few weeks ago?!! Luna. You kept this very quiet and i don't know how you managed to keep this little beauty away from us.
She is gorgeous! I'm very much looking forward to see more photos and videos. So happy for you and your lucky girls. Christmas has arrived early in your household.

I know, it kills me keeping it quiet, so I try to get a video up as quick as possible on my YouTube channel. I've had to squash all the sunny videos in as Xmas is coming and I made a video decorating her cage and she was so funny in it, I was worried that she wouldn't like me adding things to her new home, i needn't have worried, she was into everything as I was trying to decorate. That video will be out in 2 weeks i think. I laughed so much making that video. I also like to have a bit of time just getting to know my hammies before I introduce them to the world.

She is absolutely gorgeous! Love the video - she is so funny with all that bedding she is carrying around. She seems very active. What was inside the toilet roll she was attacking? I wonder if there is a "gannet" gene with cream hamsters as Newt was very into food as well.

Serendipity, she LOVES her food, everything gets taken and stored away immediately. I feel like i starve her (but I don't). I put some megazorb so it stands up in more megazorb and it has holes poked in it and i just stick some of her normal food in the holes. Sometimes the food gets poked into the middle of the tube and that keeps them out of trouble for a little bit longer Would you believe the little tinker just woke up as I was typing this, looking for more food! I wondered if she was like this with her food and bedding because she was kept in appalling conditions before she was rescued. But, maybe it is just a hamster thing. know they were all malnourished when they were rescued. I can't believe she weighs the same as Star, star is just so small but round, Sunny is long and skinny under her fur.

Sunny is just gorgeous! You were clearly destined to be a family and it is lovely to hear how she has come on in the short time you have had her. X
