Hello.
I have a dwarf, we got her in August 2020.
It took about 3 weeks to get her to get used to me. After that she's been such a happy hamster. Please guys don't judge me, but I don't keep her in her cage.
She has her cage with everything, but it's always open. She runs everywhere in the flat and seems to be very happy with it. I blocked dangerous places that she could go in like under the oven or fridge.
She used to run after me wherever I went
Like a dog!
Every evening when I was standing cooking food, she would climb on my trousers for me to pick her up.
I put her on the floor and she would climb up again
Sometimes I had to leave her in her bedroom so I could cook food.
She has a 1,70 x 90 box with sand. She is a bit of a spoiled hamster
So, out of the blue, from nowhere, she started being scared of me. Since middle January. I have no idea why.
She won't come out of her house until I go to bed. I barely see her.
If I come to her bedroom and she's awake in her pool of sand, she quickly runs away to her house.
I've been a bit sad. I so wanted to know what happened.
The only thing I can think of is that one day she fell from my arms to the floor when I was standing cooking food.
She froze for 2 seconds and ran away.
I went after her to see if she was ok.
She seemed to be ok.
She has no injuries whatsoever. But I guess (not even so sure) that it was around that date that she started to behave like that, scared.
Could anyone please help me to find out what is going on with her?
