Need advice on what to do with robo
I have a male robo hamster who's approx. a year and half.
I adopted him from p@h about a year ago-ish.
He lives alone, always has.
Since I got him, he's been a bit crazy, running around mad, bobbing up & down the sides
of the cages trying to escape.
He has a good size cage, a gabber rex.
He's doesn't get handled at all. When I got him, I was told he'd never been handled, or if he had, he wasn't
handled much, and I have tried a few times myself, but he bit me and was very unhappy about the whole thing.
Lately he seems unhappy, like I said, always looking as though he's trying to escape and being a bit nuts.
Tomorrow I'm going to try and give his cage a bit of a make-over, to see if it'll maybe cheer him up
if he's bored.
However, I'm not really sure what to do with him.
I thought about giving him away to someone with more experience with robos (I have virtually none), as I
have only had 1 syrian in the past, 2 chinese hamsters (1 died, I still have the other 1) & I also currently have a dwarf hamster.
I've also thought about getting him a friend as I thought he may be lonely, however I really would rather not
have the hassle of this, as I've had to split 2 hammies before which was upsetting, and I also thought he may be
to old to introduce another hamster to.
If anyone has any ideas of what would be the best thing to do for him, I'd really appreciate it
as I hate to see him unhappy.
Thanks
