When she does want to go back to her cage she climbs on top of my OH's foot and looks up at him. Soon as he offers his hand she climbs on it and goes into her "transport position" of lying flat with her head resting between his thumb and index finger. HE is her favourite human and the one she wants.

It's kind of funny how hamsters bond with one human in particular. Nibbles is slightly shy around me, but he's pretty scared if anyone else comes in the room, or speaks. Then I tell him it's fine, and that calms him down, so I guess he's reassured by my voice?
