Hamster behaviour

[LittleWhiteMice]

I have a hamster (its lovely :)) its seems to have settled ok, if i put my sleeve into the cage it climbs on and waits o be transported into my arms

Its runs around on me, sniffing and investigating, it also tryies to find a way off the sofa.

there have been two occassions where it has been on me and i stroked it and it went longish and stayed there for 15 mins while i stroke it. it isnt shaking, it just stays there.

I thought at first it might be because it likes it, but dp says its more likely very scared.
i would like to add that it goes to the same place on its cage and waits to be let out too, if that means anything.

Does it like me or is it just scared shitless of me?

We have an 18 week old male hamster and he comes to the door when he wants to be out. Now and again he will also sit on your lap and let you stroke him and this can sometimes last for 10 minutes. He does it if he is feeling a little tired after running around like a mad man. He does also freeze if he gets scared but you can usually tell the difference between the two. It sounds to me like he is enjoying some attention.

Hello, I'm loving that I'm not the only person who goes a bit silly over hamsters!

As per Marigold's suggestion, I've uploaded a piccie of our little boy. Would love to see more

Bloody profile doesn't appear to have gone public, even though I've clicked on the thing that says 'Let other people see my profile' and Save.
Or thereabouts.

Poo, I wanted to show off my cute little fella!

Jumping on the hammy loving bandwagon

Love that I am not the only rodent nut

My girl was 22 months in those pics, t'is why she looks a tad bald :(

Lovely! Thanks, Bonkey. Your old girl looked like a sweetie, and what a handsome boy you've got now.

Honestly, I'm worse than my kids for cooing over wee fluffy things!
