Percy's Thread

[M3gan]

Hi Guys! So I've been on the forum for a while but never made little Percy a thread. So here it is! Percy is roughly 4 months old and unfortunately a pet shop hammy :( He is a grey and white banded Syrian. He loves yogurt drops and hates carrot and banana. I'll try out some photos below

[M3gan]

I can't seem to figure out how to attach multiple photos so I'll just do this

Thank you! He's very cute when he isn't chewing his bars and waking me up lol. :D

Why do you say unfortunately a pet shop hamster? It doesn't matter where you adopted him from! He's really cute!

[Sm_banks]

As long as you love and care for him it does not matter where he came from.

I am fully aware of that and I am so glad to have him, but I am very for adoption not buying but unfortunately there are no rescues around me and no one was rehoming a hamster. There is also no breeders around me. :( Thank you for the lovely replies!

He is SO adorable - he's just a baby! He does have a slightly cheeky look as well! As though butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. It's such a shame he's still chewing the bars - it sounds like it has become a habit now. Try not to let it stress you or he'll pick up on your stress and do it more! Did you try the chamomile and scatter feeding? And turning the light off?! Or is he just still at it?

Thanks again for the tips Serendipity! You have been such a help. I am doing all of the above and he's still at it. New diy tank in a few weeks max! ;) He definitely is cheeky! I am trying to not get stressed but it's difficult. He hopefully will be happy in his new cage.

[M3gan]

Hi Guys!
I will admit I totally forgot about this thread. I've decided to give a few updates.
Percy is doing really well. He is in the new DIY cage a month or two now and he loves it. We recently changed his substrate and he got a flying saucer. He is never off it! We also treated ourselves to a new camera :D Got a few new photos so I'll try post them :)

[M3gan]

Still having photo problems :neutral:

[cypher]

The photos are lovely & he looks very happy!

[pinkneon]

He's gorgeous! An interesting color too!
Hi Percy!

[ScoobyWoo]

Oh my goodness, he's adorable. Such gorgeous colourings!

[Cinnamon Bear]

Love his big ears and curious & friendly face. The photos turned out good!

[M3gan]

Thank you everyone!
I am lead to believe he is dove banded? I was also wondering is their any threads on the forum on colour?
He is often recognised by his large ears and nose! He definitely has a cheeky look, and attitude!
I am chuffed with the photos! Well worth the money :p

[Cinnamon Bear]

You could PM Nancy's Hamsters for coloring

[M3gan]

Thank you CB :p
More photos :mad:

[pinkneon]

Awww!
I love how he is holding something in his paw!

[M3gan]

Pretty sure its a piece of bedding lol :D He is a silly goose.

[pinkneon]

Haha. He's like "This is my bedding, so I'll hang on to it!"

[Thin Lizzy]

Oh my goodness! I so love Percy's expressions and poses. So beautiful and photogenic.

[cypher]

He does have a very expressive face! I love his colouring too.

[M3gan]

Thank you very much :D

Hello all!
I made a shocking discovery a few days ago, Mr. Percy is in fact a Miss. Percy! I have decided not to change her name so she will just be called Missy or Miss. P.
I took some photos recently so I thought I'd share them here! :D

[Pebbles82]

Hello Miss Percy - now I know I think she definitely has a girl face :-) Lovely photos.

[Thin Lizzy]

Aww Miss Percy! It would be a shame to change her name. Beautiful pics of your little girl.

[pinkneon]

She is gorgeous!
You could change the spelling to Percie?

[M3gan]

Hi guys, a few days ago the weather had cooled down so M.Percy had a little adventure! Here are a few photos I took before the CF card was full :-|
She did go out of the ball ;)

[Rads]

Hey Miss P,
It's me Pip, so it's not just me who gets to go outside and play on the lawn, it's really cool isn't it, though my human keeps me contained in the playpen so I don't escape fully...
He got his picture box thing out too and took photos of me too..
Pip

[Thin Lizzy]

She's so adorable in her ball, an absolute cutie!

[M3gan]

Hi, pip!
I knowww! After I heard about your adventures I just HAD to go out there. My hooman says I'm too slow to run off so she just had reinforcements :mad:
She had a flashy picture box too! But she got really angry at it because it stopped flashing...
Talk soon, P.

Thanks, Thin Lizzy! :D

[freyashamsters]

Hey Miss Percy, it's Willow :) You have a ball?! AND you can go outside?! NO FAIR! :( How do I tell mummy to take me outside?

[M3gan]

Hi, Willow!
My ball thing is just for bring me place as it's too small for me to run in :rolleyes: I did a lot of sulking and ignoring my hooman and trying to escape :mad: Also if your hooman give you grass or dandelion eat it really quickly! Your hooman better let you outside now!
Talk later, P.

[badwolf]

Such a ridiculously cute face <3

[M3gan]

Thank you! :D M.Percy's ego will be soaring :mad: Diva mode activated LOL
