Emergency Rescue Robo

POLAR WHITES · 07-31-2016, 07:28 AM

This little guy was living outside in a combi 1 in filth,I have never seen such a dirty cage with no food, He had clearly been like that for a while, He was practically thrown at me he was that unwanted, His fur is dyed underneath from pee, and as greasy as a chip, I just binned that cage, he is now being fostered by us in a 2ft aquarium, when I placed him in the aquarium he was that excited to be free you could see his joy, he has a sand bath in the aquarium, after his excitement had died down a bit that's were he went for a good bath. We have not named him, suggestions would be appreciated he looks like an old man lol.

Aw, bless him. He looks like he's enjoying his wheel. Glad he's landed on his paws with you and I hope you have many happy times together.

So glad you found him & he'll now have the good life he deserves.
He does look like he's enjoying his new wheel, plenty of go in him lol!

I see what you mean about him looking like a little old man bless him, I'm hopeless at naming other people's hams but I think he rather looks like a Gandalf

How horrible people can be, well done you for the rescue..!
I think you should call him "Smiley" as he is obviously happy with his lot right now, and he reminds me of George Smiley from John LeCarre's novels

Aww sounds like he's had a rough start in life, well done you for taking him in

He looks lovely, can't wait to hear more about him

Goodness. Poor little soul. How did you find out about him?

I saw him advertised outside in his filthy cage. He looked bad on the photo but it was worse when I collected him. Just couldn't leave him in that state

That's awful. Some people are just *bleep*. So glad you've brought him home. Thank goodness he's not living like that any more. (I'd be tempted to call him Stig - a) because robos are so fast like Stig from Top Gear and b) because he's been living in filth like Stig if the Dump

After some thought we have named this little guy George. From studying George I think he's an older hamster so he is going to stay here with us to live out his days. Thank you for your suggestions.

George has been lucky getting a home with someone who cares about his needs. Well done on the adoption.
