I got my hamster Darth Vader yesterday. Even though he's still adjusting to his new home, he's very sweet! He's super alert, energetic, and curious. Always comes over to sniff me when my hand is in the cage and never bites. A very nice hamster with a funny name. :)

I got my fancy bear patchy from a local pet store after my robo died. He is very friendly, won't run away when I try to pick him up, and eats treats right out of my hand. Great choice for a starter pet.

My hammie, Daisy is my baby girl! I love her so much!She gets a little stinky and makes lots of noise at night on her wheel, but, shes too cute to stay mad at. They don't require that much work and are defiantly worth it! If you don't have a hammie, get one!

I got my bear hamster "nibelss" 2 days ago I love him I would 100% recomend him to ALL animal lovers! they're so easy to take care of and I think they're the nicest hamsters in petsmart today I caught my hamster picking up his poo out of his little "corner" and put it all in a neat pile on the other side. these animals make great pets and are very cute. so easy, intellegent, nice, and really funny.

I'm a first time hamster owner. I got my adorable, precious "Panda" a week ago, not knowing what to expect since he's the first hamster I've ever owned! I knew I wanted a syrian hamster because they are the cutest in my opinion and the associates at petsmart said they were the friendliest! He was the only long haired syrian they had, he's grey and white! I don't think I could have asked for a better hamster! First off he's absolutely adorable. He's got tons of energy, he loves his new cage and is very content in it! He is so friendly, he has never bit anyone. I take him out everyday to hold him and pet him. He's very fast and likes to jump so it's hard to hold him for long periods of time, however he's so sweet. Two days ago I took him out, had him cuffed in my hands, all of a sudden he rolled over on his back, put his legs up in the air and wanted me to pet his tummy. I was shocked it was like a dog rolling over. It was a kodak moment. He actually does this a lot when I hold him or pet him, he really likes getting his tummy rubbed. He's such a good boy, he hasn't yet learned to go in his potty but I'll keep working with him. He's not messy and doesn't kick his litter everywhere! He's such a sweetheart!

This hamster is sweet and generous. My hamster, waffles was very sweet and the only people waffles only bit was grandpa but that was when 1. it was the first time meeting2. waffles got very sick and died of old age and before when grandpa picked her up to see what the matter was she bit him! Lol But other than she was so sweet and kind. :) You could even hold her as long as you pleased!

I got Rebecca for... let's say psychological purposes (and snuck her into my dorm) and she makes everything better. She is always so full of energy and attitude, and loves to run around on my arms, desk, and about the room in her ball. She makes studying Ochem so much more bearable.

When I got my hamster, I went home and took it out of its cage. I was amazed when he looked for and found his food! After that, I spent time with him for the rest of the evening and it was so fun to traing him. I taught him to go in his hamster wheel and run after his food! You are the best place to get trained hamsters, food, habitats, and more! I will come back to Petsmart whenever I need you!! Thanks again for the great support and help you give your loving customers!

I had a robo dwarf hamster before and those things are just mean. My fancy bear hamster was totally different . Instantly i fell in love with carter. Carter was super nice and let me pick him up on the first day. Carter only ever bit me once when i was giving him a treat. I would highly recommend this hamster to kids of all ages.

I just got a baby hamster like 6 months ago. My hamster is very cute they dont bite and they are very fluffy and they like to run. You should get them chew toys because they will bite their cages and cause lots of noise. These hamsters will eat out of your hand and make you laugh.
