How do you stroke your hamster?

[Mou_Mou]

I was just wondering if there was a "proper" way to stroke hamsters, like some animals prefer top of the head, some like tummy tickles, is there a certain way you should stroke hammies?

from the back of the neck down to just above the bum, pretty much.

Same here - across the back in a soft smoothing motion. That's if they will sit still enough

on his back if i stroke him by his ears he turnes around quickly and then gives me a look like "dont do that!"

yeah, i too stroke them at their back(when they are sitting still)
