look at that little cute furball... hamsters are really adorable to watch.
But personally I think it's cruel to keep these guys in those small cages. Hamsters are really not well domesticated and imho quite unsuitable as pets for children... They more often than not get sick and suffer psychologically from being kept as pets...
sorry to maybe crash the mood... but yeah...
Oh yes @fraenk! My student did mention about them getting psychologically depressed easily too. Maybe that's why their life-span is really short when they become pets. I appreciate your reply, no worries :) I shall collect more of such information to ask her again if she really wants it as a pet or not. You have a very good valid point there!
