Profile:
Meet this ball of energy! Choco Pancake zooms through the night on her wheel, digs elaborate burrows and creates cozy hideouts in her bedding. She eats everywhere she goes: on her wheel, in her bed, even in the sand! It’s always a treat to see curled up in a little ball, happily munching on her seeds. Pees on her wheel too so frequent cleaning is needed.
She’s an independent little lady that’s wary of people, but her daily antics will add years to your life! She will forage for food from her sprays first and foremost rather than eat from her food bowl! So having sprays available all the time is a must!
She’s endlessly entertaining to watch as she goes about her busy ham-ventures! She may be a senior hamster, but age is just a number to her. Every night is a new marathon on her wheel, and a fresh treasure hunt for forage.
Choco Pancake will thrive in a home that appreciates her individuality, and is patient to build trust. For the right adopter, she’ll be a delightful little companion whose personality shines brightest when she’s allowed to be herself.
