Some hamsters here were kept in with their siblings so long that they started geting pregnate, others are the result of poor human contact in their younger stages and are very shy/ cage agressive, some even more were kept in colonys to fight and be physicly injered such as missing a tail, holes in the ears and other terribly sad things to encounter.

Some came from people who thought it would be "fun" to start breeding hamsters and blindly went into it with no idea what they were getting into.

Here are just a few stories of some of the hamsters that we have right now that will touch your heart. Please contact me, to hear more and learn more about the hamsters we have that might be exactly what you were looking for.

Ginger: The pretty Female Syrian came in with her father, three brothers and two sisters. Her previous owners kept them all together and they were fighting viciously. When I got her, it was evident she was the low ranking one of the litter. she was very scarred up and had some open cuts about her body. Though she has recovered physcily, apart from a scar on her sholder which will always be there, emotionaly she is taking a harder struggle. She is getting less and less shy, she will let you pet her, and I'm sure with consistant work she will be easy to hold and love her new owner terribly. She gets very attached to you, and recognizes the voice of the person who feeds her, she loves food and treats. She needs someone who will look beyond her past, and beyond her shyness and see her for what a beauty she truely is.

Treaty: She came to us at around Six weeks old, and already pregnate to her brother, Zoro. This is the equivilant of a 12 year old girl having a baby. It was obveous that the hamsters came from a long line of inbreeding, because of this, her son "Tiny Tim" died. He was terribly small and never grew past the size of a 1.5 week old baby hamster. Treaty tried her best to save him, and took extra careful care of him. she would carry him around everywhere with her, but in the end he died. Poor treaty! her other children are still alright and she continued to care for them until they were weaned. I would love to find her an amazing home, as she is a clever little girl and needs some extra TLC. She's still young, but having a litter has aged her. She's looking for the perfect home with someone who will love and understand her.

Flight: Flight was born in a litter with several siblings, and half siblings. Her mother and aunt shared the role of raising them. When she was weaned, she was put in with her sisters, which shouldnt be a problem, however she was the lowest ranking, it became aparent to me, one night when her one sister led an attack on her, and now poor Flight is tailless. She has a tiny stub where her tail had been. So shes now a little more jumpy and aloof. She doesnt bite and loves treats and being held. Though her tail will never grow back, the scars of her siblings attack can be mended, with some love and attention, which this girl really deserves.

IF these stories touched you and you would like to hear about some of the other rescues we have right now, please email me. I am happy to answer any questions about them and know quite a bit about hamsters. For just a small $5.00 adoption fee, to aid in helping the other hamsters here, you can make a difference in a hamsters life by giving them a home, your love and your attention. Please consider helping make the world a better place for one of these amazing little hamsters!
