Girl who thinks her backflipping hamster is fine.

This is just sad and it really pains me that breeders would go to the measure to have bad breeding.

Poor baby. She's obviously in distress. Do they not realise there's something wrong. Her cage is small as well.

I have seen so many video's like this and they think its funny and when you try to explain that the hamster appears as if it has a neurological problem (down to bad breeding like you said) they dismiss it and don't care, really annoys me

awww poor hamster, the first ham i had when i moved to my own house diddlina. (about (6 years ago)

she had the exact same problem, i only saw her do it a few times as i wasn't sure what was wrong, it used to make me cry.

i took her to the vets and in the end the i had to have her pts, i've never forgotten her!

rip diddlina xx

Cute yet poor baby

I hope the owners will soon realize that it's not something funny. Also hope that the hamster is actually given much love despite the fact that the owners think of a ham back flipping is cool

Usually they are in denial about it which really ticks me off, the poor hamster in the video really needs to be put to sleep. It's the most humane thing to do.

See, a backflipping hamster would be adorable if it wasn't for the reason the hamster was backflipping. As it is, the whole neurological issue, and the fact that the hamster can't stop it and has no choice about doing it, turns something amusing in to something tragic

so sad that people would find a hamsters pain funny, my taz did this right before the end so i know how traumatic it is

That video is actually really upsetting. I don't see how anyone could find this amusing unless, like Kissa said, it wasn't a problem.

That video immediately broke my heart. That doesn't look cute at all. She is so clearly in distress.
