Hiro (Adopted)

Species:  Long Hair Syrian 

Estimated age:  3 month

Gender:  Male

Likes: Food! his hideout and running on his wheel

Dislikes:  Hooman, sudden movement, loud noises

Hiro is a handsome cream fluffy boy, who easily gets startled. He tends to freeze, staring at hooman blankly and then suddenly zooming back to his chamber. He has a sensitive nose, allergy to dusty bedding and environment. He will sniffling and sneezing continuously by telling hooman it’s time to clean his free roaming area especially any hidden corner that he can squeeze his tiny body in.

This gentle boy sleeps most of the day and is rarely seen during the day time. He starts his marathon training and treasure hunt adventure when lights go off, a silent wheel is recommended. Hiro will make noise to let hooman know his mood. Chattering when hooman peeps or disturbing his sleep, chirping when replenishing his foods. He is not potty trained, eats and sleeps with his stinky pee in his chamber, regular spot leaning is necessary to prevent any bacterial growth if using any wooden chamber. 

Hiro hopes he finds someone who has proper knowledge of handling hamsters, especially since he easily gets spooked and fast to wriggle off. He will need an adopter who has the patience to interact with him, allow him to take his time to adapt to a new environment, shower him with plenty of love, pamper him with lots of enrichment toys and treats, and let him enjoy being a happy hambaobao.
