Species: Winter White
Gender: Male
Estimated Age: ~9 months

Likes: Burrowing 24/7, Mealworms

Dislikes: Nothing much, he’s a sweetheart

Why you should adopt him (TLDR): Sweet with humans, super tamed with a baby face

Pinot is a sweet little boy who spends most of his time in his burrow. While you won’t see him much, he doesn’t mind getting carried. He will charm you with his baby face as he chills on your palm. To encourage him to be more outgoing, you can let him free roam in a playpen! He will gladly walk around to explore.

Pinot might not be a crazy foodie but he will still accept treats from you. His food bowl will be empty the next morning. However, because he loves burrowing so much, you will often find his food bowl and sand bath covered in bedding. So you have to make sure to clean them out!

Will you adopt this blob of a hamster and give him a forever home?

Requirements

Cage: It would be preferable to have a barless cage (e.g. acrylic or glass tank) as he really loves to burrow. Clear tanks will also allow you to observe him when he is burrowing (and it’s super fun to watch).

Bedding: At least 10cm in height
