Meet Remington Steele

I think I might have a bug - I got my first little dwarf hybrid (which I mistakenly put in the Campbells section as that's what I was told she was) on 5th of July , and on the 28th of July I ended up adopting her brother from the P@H adoption centre!! I'm a little bit smitten

So, Remington was put in the adoption centre because of his "personality problems" - he was always on the go, always trying to bite. They named him Nibbles because it was the only polite thing they could name him

Turns out, he was biting because he was terrified - he's completely deaf and seems to be totally blind as well. He was a little nippy at first but has really settled down now and seems to respond to me tapping his cage to let him know I'm around and as long as I don't move too quickly he runs about quite happily

He loves his snuggles

He is also Bluebell, my little hybrid girl's brother

The day he arrived:

Greasy furred:

"Elloo Mum!!"

Hug!

My evil bitey boy

Awww! What a gem!

Does it hurt when he bites?

Absolutely

He nicked my skin the first few days he was here but now that I know to take care approaching him and letting him know I'm there I get those lovely little kisses instead

I wish all my animals were as "evil" as the staff at P@H said Remi was!!

A BIG welcome to Remi!

He`s a little special lad who will now have a decent life. It`s no wonder these little hamsters start to nip and defend themselves when they are kept in small glass tanks with no stimulation and being disturbed by everything and everyone passing by in the store.

He won`t know what to do with himself now, that`s for sure!

Hi remi! You're a very handsome lad aren't you?

Aw the poor little fluff.

I have a little hybrid that we adopted from P@H. He was put in the adoption section because he only has three legs, and he used to bite all the time because he never had enough room to get about (he can't climb over obstacles) and because he was so roughly handled. He was terrified at first.

I'm so glad little Remi found you and now has the caring home he deserves. Also, he is so cute! :3
