We welcomed two new Syrian hamsters into our foste

We welcomed two new Syrian hamsters into our foster network this week. 🐹🐹

Benji, a 5 month old male who we offered to help find a home for; and Amelia, also 5 months old, whose previous owner was struggling to cope with caring for her due to allergies (and a pet cat that was a little too inquisitive!). Both wonderful friendly hamsters who we hope won’t spend too long looking for a new forever home.

🟣 If you’d like to adopt either of these cuties please fill out our adoption form on our website in the RESCUE page.

Adopting a hamster from us not only takes a hamster out of foster care, but also provides us with the space for new intakes who may urgently need our help.

Benji and Amelia are prime examples of how we don’t just take in abused animals, but also help owners who realise they can no longer care for their pet, and want to ensure they go to 5 star loving homes. You can help us continue our rescue and rehoming work by donating - we have a perpetual need for consumables such as bedding and food for our rescue intakes as well as possible vet visits.

🟣 If you can donate even a few euro towards the care of our hamsters we would be truly grateful. You can donate through the link in our bio!

Just thought everyone would like to see how Tink i

Just thought everyone would like to see how Tink is this evening. She’s just had her teeth trimmed and now she gets to free roam for a little while before heading back to her detolf for dinner 🥰🐹

3/3… So why is this Tink’s story and not Jelly

3/3… So why is this Tink’s story and not Jelly Beans? Well, Jelly Tot was renamed Tink, and at 3 weeks old she weighed 7 grams while her older brother weighed 14 grams. Having a runt in the litter isn’t uncommon, but there was something different this time and Sophie had to figure out what that was.
After a quick examination, Sophie found that Tink’s upper teeth were growing back into her mouth and up towards her skull. Her bottom teeth.. well one wasn’t growing at all and the other was growing sideways and out over her cheek. Tink’s first vet visit resulted in all 3 overgrown teeth being cut all the way back to see if they’d regrow properly.
Sophie had to handle Tink more than she ever had to handle a hamster, so Tink grew very comfortable with Sophie and would let her examine her teeth as much as was needed, and would happily sit in Sophie’s hand to wash herself afterwards.
Unfortunately, her teeth didn’t grow back straight. It was quite evident that Tink would need an experienced forever home who could make sure she got all the right soft foods and monitor her intake of solid foods. Sophie had fallen in love with her, so it was only right for Tink to stay. Sophie has to trim Tinks teeth at least twice a week to make sure she can eat properly. That’s why she’s so tiny.
Jelly Bean, Skittles and Bonbon found their forever homes and at 7 months old, Tink is only 21 grams on average but otherwise happy and healthy… and obsessed with cuddles once she's had her teeth trimmed.
