Hi all just asking for a bit of advice. I bought a new hamster yesterday for dd in preparation for Christmas. I have tried not to disturb him too much-just if I notice he's awake when walking past I gently talk to him. Have put fresh food in and a couple of treats and bit of carrot. But he seems really scared of me - sometimes makes the screeching noise at me which is horrible to hear. I have no idea how I am going to clean out his cage let alone be able to tame him. I am petrified of being bitten and dropping him and losing him. Let alone getting to a stage where dd will be able to hold him. Any advice?
