A Newbie is Coming

[StarlightSerenity]

After losing my handsome Syrian Badger I had a Syrian sized hole in my heart and although I had no intention of getting another ham quite so soon I came across a ham on Pets4Homes and fell in love... so, this afternoon, me and my boyfriend are going to pick up a 5 month old female sable Syrian. so excited! Her owner is moving somewhere that doesn't allow pets which is why she's having to rehome her.

I'll post pics asap, I just couldn't resist telling you guys about my newbie! :D

Look forward to the pics.

Sable Syrians are gorgeous, so can`t wait to see and hear more about her. :) I`ll bet her owner is pleased that she is going to a lovely home too. x

[StarlightSerenity]

Thank you everyone!

My newbie has arrived! I've not seen much of her yet but hoping she will come out of her nest this evening. Her cage, although not very bag is nice and clean. I want mover her into the Hams I want mover her into the Hamster Heaven for a couple of days.

Here's some picks that I just managed to get, will hopefully get more later

She looks adorable in that first photo, I hope she settles in quickly for you :)

She looks beautiful!!!
Looking forward to more photos soon :)

[StarlightSerenity]

Oh I'm in love <3 Wanted a sable for so long and she's just gorgeous. Long haired too although only has one of the girly tufts on her hips, not sure where the other one is. Maybe she just has the one!

I need naming help! I'm not keen on her old name and have always renamed adopted hams. What do you guys think she looks like?

More pics!

No idea why the pics are sideways... Will have to sort out my photobucket account so I can post them that way.

She's adorable & her colour is beautiful, what a lovely girl, congrats!

[Thin Lizzy]

So blooming lovely and her colouring is stunning!

[StarlightSerenity]

Well she seems to be settling in well! She's now in the Hamster Heaven which she seemed to enjoy exploring last night. We had a quick cuddle and so far so good with handling.

She has also been renamed and is now called Galaxy :)

[Thin Lizzy]

I love her new name - Galaxy! Definitely suits her!

[cypher]

Great to hear she's settling in well & enjoying her new home, I really like her new name too :)

She's a ridiculously pretty little girl, you lucky thing starlightserenity!

Is she named Galaxy after a collection of stars and planets or after the chocolate bar? She does look sweet enough to eat ;)

After the chocolate bar as I'm slightly addicted to it!

[Thin Lizzy]

I knew right away when I saw her name that it was after the chocolate, I too love galaxy, especially minstrels yum!
