I absolutely love our black hamster (she's in my avatar), but I do have to admit that she is harder to photograph well! Everything has to have the brightness etc. changed. I wouldn't change her for the world now I know her, but had I had the choice in the pet shop I think I probably would have gone for a patterned hamster - perhaps golden and white.

I've heard the same thing about people not wanting to adopt black cats and dogs - reputedly part of the reason is that they're harder to photograph - which is an issue when people are browsing profiles on rescue websites.
