It can be found at almost all the petshop but i remember petshop such as pets wonderland @ mid valley doesnt sell vitakraft brand. If you want can try Nilufar @ The scott garden. I used to buy at petsmore but since Nilufar open i never go to petsmore anymore. The small pack (400g) it's around rm10.90 & the big pack (1kg) it's around rm19.00 if i'm not mistaken. I normally buy big pack for my hammy cos he is a very big eater sweat.gif Normally green pallet he wont touch make me throw it away only.. doh.gif and you might wanna try this treat.. my hammy love it wub.gif

(Vitakrft Fruit Crossys) - I normally cut it half for easier to him to eat but normally he just eat the cream filling inside the rest he never touch it.. doh.gif

user posted image

(Vitakraft Beetroot Bonbinos) - Rich in iron suitable for hammy daily diet. My hammy like to bite it and run around to find a place to eat sweat.gif

went plc & bought a new bedding for my hamster. Its called homefriends & seems like a new product in plc. Plc seems to focus on this bedding more already & not restocking on others & i guess they can monopolize it since i didnt see other petshops selling it yet laugh.gif

Anyways its really good bedding, completely safe for hamster since its stated 100% recycled soft paper. No need worry about pine etc...plus texture is really soft. But sad thing is its quite expensive leh. I bought 10L for rm36 (10% discount), so i mixed with my old bedding that is going to finish. I might consider mixing with other bedding or just use homefriends purely. But quite expensive although its very good cry.gif I guess i am going to stick with this brand for quite some time now  flex.gif

@Inferno
Mind to take a pix of your bedding? Been googling but not sure which 1 i might wanna change a better bedding for my hammy. Currently using vitakraft but felt the materials quite rough. Here share some pix of my hammie & his new playground that i brought for him

Oh hi guys!!! I'm hamtari biggrin.gif ---> This is my new playground blush.gif

Hi Hamtari! Wow, nice playground .. where you bought it?

Homefriends bedding I've been using also.. quite expensive but since it's safest compared to other wood shavings. I don't trust them. I mixed with ultra pet as well.


Thanks for sharing the pix starry. I think i might change as well but scare my hammie not use to it as he was using vitakraft all the while. Oh the playground i brought it at Mr. DIY. Kinda hard to find it i been searching almost few outlets & finally found it at bukit mertajam outlets sweat.gif

Worth the found i guess. Hamtari love it so much tongue.gif At least he no need to boring.

QUOTE(infernoaswen @ Sep 12 2012, 11:23 AM)
sure no problem...will take & upload it later afternoon but bedding is very soft i feel. There is a sample on how the bedding looks like in plc sunway, they got pack it in a transparent plastic for people to look at it. But its quite small & soft so for those hamsters who like to burrow in their bedding might not be able to burrow deep unless you use a lot (which is expensive  rolleyes.gif )

Thats why i go mix with my old bedding that is going to finish  laugh.gif plus this new bedding got some kind of anti bacteria thingy  brows.gif There is a pdf file available online if you want to read about it

Thanks inferno. Appreciate ur effort.. Hehe.. i think i gonna mix with vitakraft as well as my hammy cage are kinda big.. surely will be very fast to finish sweat.gif

So i try to train him to play with the playground, i put 1 sunflower seeds at the staircase & 1 at the top & also 1 at the slider.

Yeap.. robo.. so far of all robos i rear he's the laziest, greediest, and sleepiest.. at the same time, he's the fastest learner.. closest to human touch.. kekeke
Currently 5 months old only..  laugh.gif

Where did u buy the playground btw ? Looks interesting and fun hehe


You guys robo are so young. Mine already can consider grandpa hammie. He already near 2yrs old but then still the cutest & adorable little fella from the 1st day i brought him. I'm really glad that he doesnt afraid of human & i really have a gd relationship with him. Hope he can live longer & accompany me much more longer. He such a gd pal for me.

My playground i brought it at Mr. DIY but it took me quite a time to look for it. Been going to few branch non of it have stock of it & then finally i found it at bukit mertajam branch. The 1 & only set left. rclxms.gif

how bad is your mom's allergy? can you possibly bring it back and put in your room?

twice a week should be okay as long as the hammie have food and drink .. but if possible, more often la .. in case things out of order .. i also pening .. dunno where to send my hammie for cny (still long way but need to think de)

just don't leave it alone too long .. duwan scare you la but my own experience made me vow not to leave my hammie alone for too long .. a day and half only i realize his bottle is faulty .. and the water had leaked all over the bedding ..
*
To be honest my mum allergy is not that serious but the most biggest problem was my mum hate animals.. its all sort of animals especially mouse & i have no ideal why. If i bring back my mum probably would freak out. Worse probably will chase me & my hammie out too sad.gif

CNY my bf also have to leave my hammie alone but that time shouldnt be a problem as i will on holiday & i can go to my bf house more often to look over it but now i kinda worry sad.gif

babybb, your hammy really cute. how did you train them to hold them in your hand. XD and actually, i dun think leaving them for a week is good. the most you can leave them is 2 days and not more than that and this is with plenty of foods. but still, do visit them. sometime they biasa with human already then they expected to see you.
*
Hehe.. Thanks.. We often play with him & bring him to walk around fimiliar with our scent & voice. Just talk with him when u're free. Tot him not as a pet but as a friends. Share whatever upset you or happiness. Everytime i talk with my hammie he will stare at me make like he really listening. But actually we doesnt train much we just lucky to get this friendly little fella who doesnt really scare of us in the beginning. He will just come over & smell our hand hoping some sunflower seeds for him but when its nth he will just walk away lazying around. But the youngest brother are the notty 1. That 1 we really cant tame him.. he still very afraid of us even for so long.

Yea i was thinking the same too but really got no choice my bf hmtown is at penang. Too far and too old for my hammie to travel might scare he stress out as he was reaching 2 yrs old. So my bf might get help from his hsemate to look over sum time & my side here i'll go over 2 times in weeks.

Guys i suspects my hammie got abscess. Recently been notice there a lump at my hammie left side tummy. It's soft & watery felt like liquid. When i softly press it he doesn't feel like in pain or struggles. Although there a lump but he still doing his normal routine everyday. He seem fine with all the eat, drink, sleep & active like normal. I google it about that & i been found out about this sickness called "abscess". Anybody experience the same things before? Sigh.. Why there are so many illness in old age hammie? Cant the god let them to have a happy & peaceful life in their remaining life? sad.gif

FYI, the lump look similar like this.. I found this picture when i was googling.. Should i worry? unsure.gif

If  doesnt show any cut, injury or blood i think shud be ok...maybe they are playing not fighting...sometimes they got sound when they are playing too..if u say they can sleep together then shud be  ok. Hamsters active at nite but mine dont..hehe..sleeps only...
Btw, hey members, need your suggestion on which hamster food are good and they will finish all without wasting it?
previous i gv versele laga but those colourful one they left it and dowan eat. Now im giving vitakraft (not the brand listed in 1st thread) not so good as it dont have sunflower seeds and kuaci..and my hamster didnt eat the pellet things...so end up throwing oso...

I heard harry hamster good..can i know where can get it and how much the price? Got sell at plc? Need ur urgent advise...
*
I been feeding vitakraft since i brought my little pal back home until now. Eventually i have to pick up those sunflower seeds in it because my little hammie started to develop fatty lump so i have to be extra be carefull on his diet.. Your vitakraft is "vitakraft menu" one? If yes then i suppose it should have sunflower seed in it but bear in mind although hamster 1st priority treat was sunflower seed but giving too much is not gd as you can take my hammie as example. I have very much regret now for not taking good care enough of his diet =(

Anyway if you are looking for harry hamster, if i'm not mistaken you can find it at "pets wonderland" mid valley but still u can always call before you go. Hope that help =)

BTW guys, do you noe where i can find this?

I normally buy at Nilufar but currently they doesnt have any stock & i might need to wait another 1-2 months for the stock to arrive & my hammie already running out of it.. Kindly advice if you see this at anywhere =)

icon_question.gif Lately i noticed my hammie kept on grooming himself. I know i sound silly as hamster groom himself are a normal things but he just kept on groom himself like non stop. Previous he wasn't acting this way.. everytime when i cage his cage he would so relaxing walk here walk there.. relaxing on his cooling plate & bathroom fill with bathing sand but now all he does was just groom. When he wake up he groom.. after that sleep then wake up groom again.. He groom can up to 10min.. Is this normal? Am i over worry o sum thing? unsure.gif
