Rosie has been with us for 3 weeks now and she has calmed down so much. She is still jumpy and seems to cringe when you stroke her sometimes. She is very picky about when she wants attention. She will walk onto your hand and take food from it too. She doesn't mind being scooped up to come out of her cage for a run around, but when she's busy and doesn't want to be picked up she will do her utmost to jump out of your hand.
Its strange starting over again with a new hamster as our lovely Bertie was so loveable and a real softie when it came to cuddles. My daughter is worried that Rosie won't be like Bertie and I've tried to explain that she isn't Bertie and may never be like him either. I hope that Rosie does calm down and likes cuddles eventually.
