Thanks, Souffle! I find his coloring very interesting because closer up and in brighter light he looks more whitish with shadowing around the periphery of him. When I first met him he crawled right into the crook of my arm for a cuddle (although now that I know how much he hates light I think it was more to hide than anything.) So I picked him for his personality but was wishing he was more of a golden color. However, now I think he's the cutest, bestest hamster ever! I realize I may be biased.. also he's only the second hamster I've ever encountered, the first being my cousin's. That little guy was so cute I went into hamster withdrawal when I left and had to get a hamster of my own!
