Hello Penelope!
Hello to the newest addition to my family- this is Penelope!
I stood in front of the hamsters in the shop and said "does anyone want to come home with me?" This little one climbed all over the other hamsters and came right to the front of the tank and looked right at me! (That's when I took this picture) so I feel like she chose me.
The man in the pet shop said she was between 9 and 10 weeks old, but she was still with her litter mates so I don't see how could be that old- what do you think?
She's been living with me since Friday and so far I've just left her to it. Tomorrow I'm going to see if she's ready to take a treat from me.
She's so brave though- she had an explore of her cage and ran on her wheel from the first night she was here- she really loves her wheel!
I can't wait to get to know her!
(Apologies if the picture comes out super huge, I don't really know what I'm doing!)

Re: Hello Penelope!
Awwww! Hi Penelope!
My local pet store no longer takes babies under 8 weeks old and keeps them with their litter mates until they are 10 weeks old unless they fight, so it's not impossible that she's 9 or 10 weeks old, though would be unusual ... However, she is adorable!!

Re: Hello Penelope!
It seemed strange to me that she might be nine or ten weeks, but if it's not impossible maybe she is! I gave her a sunflower seed from my fingers yesterday and she took it straight away so she's continuing to show me how brave she is!

Re: Hello Penelope!
Congrats on Penelope she looks so sweet.
It sounds like she making a good start to taming, by her being comfortable enough to take a sunflower seed from you.

This is the best picture I can get of her colouring, I don't really know what colour she is! I'll try to get a better picture when she gets up tonight.
