Gertie

[Ria P]

After losing four lovely dwarf hybrids to illnesses i didn't want another dwarf as our own pet.
But my OH wanted another dwarf girl in Betsy's spot in our bedroom and had already chosen a name. Betsy was very much his girl but he's well aware that all hamsters are different.
I compromised and agreed to get him a pedigree dwarfie hoping that with better genetics a dwarf may have a better chance of a long and healthy life.
So i went looking for Gertie and soon found her.
Today Gertie moved from Tristar hamstery in Bath to her retirement Hamster Heaven in our bedroom.
I'll leave her to settle for a few days before introducing this household to her. Had to take a quick photo though before leaving her to hamster about in peace.
