Third-ing the adopting
It does feel good to give a "reject" hammy a home. They need as much love as the "new" ones for sale. You're almost never going to find a pure WW in a pet shop, though (or a pure Campbells).
I wish I could force all P@H staff to read
Hamsterlopaedia or something. Would be much more useful than whatever "training" they apparently get...
(Curse you guys, now I really want to adopt another hamster, I only have room for one cage!
)
