bcspcapets.shelterbuddy.com/animal/animalDetails.asp?statusid=3&animalid=115964I got an email from a friend who said, this looks a lot like a dwarf to her, and if i was interested (As she knows I am sorta looking for another dwarf hammy). I took a look and said, that is not a Teddy Bear Hamster Cross (as described) and it is not a dwarf (though she keeps telling me it is LOL...) I say it's a gerbil. How about you?

You can't cross a teddy bear with anything 'cuz they're all syrian hamsters! That looks like a gerbil to me as well.

Pretty bad photo.
But gerbil is the best guess.

Apparently a volunteer has gone down there to check him out and he is a dwarf hammy. (Maybe they got the pic's mixed up?) He will also be travelling next week to the mainland to his new home... hummdeedumm...

Ugh, I found an ad on kijiji for "Campelli dwarf hamsters also called chinese hampster" I sent them a not-so-nice email saying that if they've been "Breeding for 15 yrs" as they claim, they'd know the difference between the species. I REALLY miss having hamsters. Ah well, I'll wait until we get some in that need a foster home.

Better to rescue and adopt than buy.
And it is not spelled "hampster", either!

And it is not spelled "hampster", either! LOL... it was a joke... so may people on craigs lists and such spell it like that when they are trying to sell them. I was making fun of clueless people.

There's been the Robos on CL so much lately... I'm considering taking in that hammy with Lock-Paw but I'm getting a new foster this weekend from another volunteer. I cant wait to see your hammy/gerbil!
