Accurate lessons for the world. We need more people like you, Victoria (she's the O.P.), to advocate for small, exotic pets.

My long haired Syrian, Fidget, absolutely loved being brushed! I used a toothbrush to get out any knots or bedding that was stuck in his coat, and he would happily sit for me whenever I did :)

Hi Victoria I just got a hamter and she had babies 😂 2 day after I got her it was going very well but then I notices that she still had a baby in her that she could't get out and she sadley past away not even two weeks in 😢. So now im hand feeding 6 baby hamters and it very hard, but your channel helpt me soooo much I just want to tell you thank you, you the best person in the world ❤

I love your videos so much, I’m getting a hamster soon and you have taught me everything I need to know! Tysm ❤❤

Great video! I have two long haired Syrians and one of them HATES being brushed so I don't do it as it stressed him out. He doesn't have the longest fur so it's fine😅. I try to get some of the bedding from his fur out but he doesn't like it lol🐹

[quarantinekittys]

I love you videos they have taught me so much about hamster care and now my hamster has the pest care I can provide ❤

Miso is a sassy girl so i bet if i tried brushing her with a soft toothbrush she'd probably be like "I cAn dO iT mYsElF lAdY" 😂 she is fine with me petting her though. I really hate when people put hamsters in water. Like, you can clearly see that they want to get out. Once for my birthday, my classmate got me chinchilla dust for Miso bc SHE used it on HER hamster. I told her that its unsafe and that they need sand. After that i went to petsmart and got some hamster safe sand.

I’m ordering my sand bath soon ! I wanna get it before i get my hamster

[auroraward]

I only washed my hamster when she was elderly. she had her pee on herself. just a little bit of warm water and a wash clothe. kept her warm while she drying. that’s the ONLY time i bathed her.

My Hamster was actually a little bit fluffy when I got him, still I brushed him from the beginning. Now he developed a true winter coat which I brush nearly every day.
Another fun thing is watching him groom himself, because he often sits under or next to his Waterbottle. I suspect he has to groom much fur that he wants to have a little drink always available.

Victoria helped me figure out what I have been doing wrong and helped me

[knotsoangelic]

A lot of this also applies to rats! Rats also shouldn’t have baths because of the oils on their skin and bc it stresses them out ❤

[samviicious]

my old hamster had such long fur near his back legs so we had to regularly trim it cause piss and crap got clumped up

[queenofanon]

I had one teddy and two short hair syrians. Only the teddy needed brushing and trims, but hammies are very hygienic so they don’t need baths

How do you know if your sand is heat treated??
