Ozzy moved in exactly two months ago.
Ozzy has started to respond to my voice and i feel that he is beginning to trust me. When i rustle his substrate late in the evening and call him his little face appears and he walks into his mug. If he doesn't poke his nose out then i leave him be and try another night.
Tonight i sat on the floor with him and he walked all over me sniffing. At one point he got spooked and run up my arm to sit in the crook of my elbow. I'm quite flattered that he sees me as a place of safety.
He also climbed up to my shoulder and sat there for quite a while while i talked to him and stroked him then had a quick wash. Ozzy also sat on my arm while i stroked him. None of my other hamsters ever sit still for long enough to get petted like that so its a new experience for me and Ozzy.

Its so interesting getting to know a hamster and they really are all so different.
