Indy Overload

[Elaine]

Just been cleaning out Indy's tank. Eva imediately jumped into the space where the tank sits to watch both me and hamster so got the camera out. Removed one or two things from Indy's tank, re-arranged things and gave her a parsley bell which she is currently stripping at the moment and making a food mound in a corner, bless her.
Ok here goes so dont fall asleep:lol: :lol: :lol:

Isn't she lovely!!! I had golden hamsters as a child, the only pet we were allowed other than goldfish :roll: They were so lovely and snuggly - only one was a biter!

Just wanted to check, is that cotton wool inside that cardboard roll? Only we used that a bit for bedding - and other, similar stuff - and one of the hamsters got an internal blockage and turned up it's toes as a result.

Used shredded paper after that.

Its snugglesafe hamster bedding.:lol:

Great photo's your hamster is so much bigger than ours!

[Fran]

Brilliant piccies!!! What a gorgeous coloured hamster!!

[charliebubs]

She is lovely and has a very exciting looking home!! When we had hamsters as kids they just had a little house, some sawdust, food and water!!!! ;)

[Mags]

She is lovely Elaine! :D I never had a hamster or knew much about them but looking at Indie here, I think I could spend hours just watching her play .....she's a real cutie!:lol:

[Erin]

greatpiccies elaine,she is so gorgeous,she look like my first hampster molly :)

[Elaine]

Thankyou, I do love to watch her busy herself around the tank especially after I have cleaned it and replaced everything.

You still get those little hamster cages, I personally think if an animal is to be housed then it should have as much room and activities as poss'. We had a guy leave the pet shop in a strop yesterday coz I refused to sell him a rat coz he wanted to keep it in a bloody hamster cage:twisted:

[Tom]

Awww, what a great looking hamster :)

Great pics, Elaine :D xx

[Jane]

Awww she is gorgeous :D

Its snugglesafe hamster bedding.:lol:

Is it like cotton wool? If so it's really dangerous, if they eat it it can tangle up their insides, it can also wrap around limbs causing them to break etc. You can use shredded unscented toilet roll in her nest, it's comfy, a lot cheaper and 100% safe :)

[dandysmom]

Awww, she's a little cutie, Elaine, and what a well-equipped home she has! I love the intent look on Eva's face as she inspects what's going on....

[Elaine]

Yes, not alot gets past Eva:lol:

[Donna]

I kept hamsters a few years ago and this so called "safe" bedding is not safe..

I dont want to alarm you Elaine, but would rather tell you as I would hate for anything to happen and I could of stopped it.

[Elaine]

[Jane]

Thankyou Jane and thanx for the link Donna. Have removed the current bedding.

Glad you removed it, better safe than sorry ;) Like I said earlier, shredded toilet roll is great to use, you can also get bags of similar stuff already shredded to save you the work :P

[Elaine]
