Looking at him on the way home (ended up purchasing a carrier aswell, I was saying to OH short haired mink banded, but his eyes which are HUGE look black to me and he has grey ears?
But the spectacles are really obvious.
Have gone in now and he is asleep? wedged between the wheel and the house looking not too good
On the other hand I couldn't imagine a more stressful afternoon, first you are poked by the assistant to wake up properly, then you are put in a tiny box insisted on by pets@home, then you are carried around the shop while your new owner desperately tries to find a carrier to take you home in, then the only thing available is a carrier for reptile (and small animals), then you have a car ride where the bumpy roads make you lose your footing, then you are left in the carrier whilst your new owner tries as quick as she can to get the small cage ready for you as the big cages need disinfecting, then you are put in the cage and the new rubbish owner realises the silent spinner won't fit and the lid won't close, then you are ushered back in the cup and back in the carrier whilst new owner cleans the wheel that should really go in the cage and fits it and then wrestles with the water bottle as the cage will only take sippys but we haven't got the bracket anymore!
PHEW!
You are now on your own in the dark room though you can smell other hamsters and people are coming and going, best you stick your head down and hope for the best!
Your new owner has decided to leave you be in the small cage tonight and let you rest up, there will be plenty of time for adventure later on
(He is currently in a ferplast disney which I use for picking up hamsters normally, it really does amaze me that these cages are sold as suitable for a hamster to live in normally!
