Did You Adopt Licorice?

Meet Licorice

Licorice was given up due to his owner's allergies. Hamsters can make great pets for children as long as they are handled very gently. They are not good pets for children younger than 8 since it is easy for them to be injured if they are accidentally dropped. They are nocturnal which means they are up and about using their exercise wheel at night. According to the Humane Society "hamsters are fairly independent and can entertain themselves for extended periods of time, provided their housing is properly enriched with toys, bedding, and opportunities for burrowing and climbing. Still, to be happy and well-adjusted, your hamster should receive daily handling and interaction. Keep in mind that you'll need to thoroughly clean your hamster's cage every week."
