Default Re: Syrian hamster seems to hate my hand in her cage?

Your hamster is simply being territorial. First, stroke and handle her out of the cage to get her used to it. When she's in the cage, show her your hand before you stroke her - she probably isn't expecting you to stroke her if she hasn't seen you. Also, make sure you wash your hands first to make sure there's no scent of food on your hands.

Hope this helped!
