Where'd my house go?

For the past week Hercules has been using the box he was brought home in as his nest. Today however it was time to finally throw it out as it was getting pretty dirty! He looked so confused the poor thing!



He was not too happy with me after I threw his house away, so I gave him a seed stick to apologise, and he loved it so I think I am forgiven!


I must apologise for the poor picture quality, but these were taken on my phone. Hercules is running around his cage now and seems quite happy, so I assume he's over his afternoon of excitement now!

Hercules - An Introduction



Hercules is an 11 week old Syrian hamster who has been living with me for nearly a week now so I thought it was time to set his blog!

So far he loves his wheel, and his favourite treat is a sunflower seed, especially the really large ones I found in the pet shop the other day! He also tried a Cheerio the other night and seemed to enjoy it; he looked like he was eating a hamster doughnut!


We're also working on taming Hercules right now, and so far he is quite happy to sit on my hand and eat a treat, so I am super proud of him right now. 


So there's Hercules in all his hammy glory!
