Seeing as I added a few of his pics to my introduction post I thought it was about time he had his own thread Winston hasn't had a very good start to life, as he was found dumped somewhere, then he spent 5 days at a vets (not any animals favourite place!!), luckily a member of staff took him home and then he somehow found his way here last Wednesday I think he's only young as he's got a baby face and he's really tiny, but then again after 3yrs of keeping rats anything smaller than them is tiny!! He's a real cutie
His first day here...
Here he is checking out his Hamster Fort....
I know I can get over that if I stretch......
I knew I could do it....
Inspecting his bus....
Checking out his new cage..... First thing I need to do is remove that paper.... and he did!!
I also bought these for him but I need to put them together, Betsy tried to help but she found it toooo exhausting
That's my favourite as well I daftly thought he wouldn't be able to get out of the fort but he's proved me wrong

They are tiny compared to rats aren't they!! And there was me thinking my little tailless Ida was small (tailless due to birth defect/very bad breeding), but she's much bigger than him
I took some more pics of my little cutie pie Winston last night, he started off looking like a normal syrian but suddenly he turned into a "Cobra", I thought it might have been due to the food I put in his fort but when I saw him........ well....... I soon realised why
I think I may have a stasher on me hands
"Looks like I'm gonna be in here for a while so best get out the provisions..... food, check...bedding, check..."
