Got a white winter dwarf hamster, his name is Yuki! Getting a dust bath soon but I think I did pretty decent on the habitat, although I always want to go bigger and keep adding fun things! Just waiting on the dust bath and a few more hides! He looks like he’s scheming on the first pic 😂 I love his little striped back and can’t wait to see him turn white in the winter!

He’s so brave and sweet, I love watching pet shop animals be blown away when they’re given a decent home. He hasn’t burrowed or dug despite having 11 inches of compressed bedding. It’s like he’s never had the chance to and is just so busy exploring everything else! Hasn’t even touched the wheel with so much more room to run and explore! Talk about clutter. 

I have a sand bath coming in and some coco peat treating I can’t wait to see how he reacts to them! The pet store person told me he was mean and didn’t get along with other hammies! (no duh!) that he would squawk at people when they tried to change bedding or anything, he was cramped and miserable looking! He let me give him a gentle pat while eating and didn’t seem bothered by me at all. Such a sweet boy I can’t believe they tried to convince me he was mean. He was just cramped!

Enough clutter? Meet Yuki!
