I have no books on hamsters, I do all my research online. But I agree these books are dangerous. I think it's because people were clueless back then, still today people get hamsters because they think it's only a small rodent that doesn't have as much needs as other animals, doesn't need a vet etc (my mum had this attitude until I changed it).

I like to remind people that although a hamster maybe small it still feels pain,bleeds, feels fear etc. It's still an animal and you as an owner are obliged to cater for all it needs and more.
