Default Re: Henry and Gordon

Wee Gordon our Robo must be 17/18 months old now but i'm not sure of his exact age because he was adopted

Today i decided to give him a health check, spot clean his tank and change the sand in his sandpit.

I managed to locate him and scoop him out in my hands then hold him while i checked him over. Everything seemed fine to me and he was quite well behaved.

Then i put him in the transport box instead of back in his tank and he was not happy at all. He gave me an angry squeak so i had to put him back in his tank which was bare of furniture with only the substrate in it. He run to the place where his sandpit and wheel normally sits and there was more angry squeaking when he couldn't find it. I had to put everything back in a hurry and here he is looking out of his cottage before he closed up his door with substrate.

I've never heard him squeak before. Do hamsters get grumpier as they get older?

At least age won't affect Henry because he's always been a bit of a grump.
