Hello all! I recently took in a Chinese Dwarf hamster named Peanut. Peanut was originally my roommate's pet but when she moved out, she left Peanut behind. I have since taken the little fuzz ball in as my own and I love her to pieces but I want to make sure that I'm caring for her properly. I have run countess internet searches looking for advice on cages, food and treats but all of the information that I find is very conflicting. I have been hoping to find a hamster forum with experienced breeders and owners (much like this one) that might be able to give me some advice for Peanut's care. I figured this would be a good place to ask since many of you have non-spiney pets as well and might be able to point me in the right direction. So if anyone knows of a good information source, please let me know. It would be very appreciated.

Here are a couple of pictures of the little squirt too... just for fun.

My hubby recently adopted a Russian Dwarf Hamster and named her Bella *grin*....so if you do find any hamster forums I would like to know too! So far all info I have found in regards to Russian Dwarfs has been through individual websites, no forums.

I haven't found many good hamster forums. You could try looking on Goosemoose, they usually have great communities- If all else fails you can ask questions in one of the other small animal sections, the members are bound to be able to help in some way.

I was searching for home remedies for 'crusty eye' in hamsters and found this forum:

It looks like a good spot for anyone interested in hamsters. ^_^
