for example, this is the mouse starter cage that one hamster had spent his life in:
He was a very small hamster and if he stood on back legs, his head touched the roof. The wheel didn't turn and he had no other toys. It had piles of poo and urinated bedding. Almost all of my rescues have arrived in these conditions. One lady had a similar cage that was filled with only straw and nothing else. She'd been living like that for 18 months.
The worst thing is that it's not a small minority of hams that live like this, it's millions.
Look at this beautiful, intelligent lady... She came from a home where hamsters lived in Hagen carry cases with a bowl of water.

Re: Rescue hamster and where to find them?
DJR this thread is from 2008 and the hammy has likely passed to the bridge now.
Please check the date at the top left of the first post to ensure you do not bring up old posts which may cause distress thanks.
