I just started having a syrian hamster yesterday. She/he was really cute (forgot to ask about the gender). But when I firstly put it into the cage (2nd hand cage from my sister's friend), the hamster ran around the cage, i guess becuase he/she wanted to get use to it. Today when i woke up, i noticed he/she still sleeping, until 4:00pm when I came back from class, still sleeping. Until 7pm he/she wokeup and finding food. I'd like to know if sleeping for such a long hour is normal for a Syrian hamster?
Secondly, this darling hamster of mine don't want to be caught, he/she keep running around when i tried to hold him/her. I'm afraid to squeeze him/her too tight, but everything, he/she just slip out of my hand. HWhat should I do? The hamster seems to be afraid of me...
Your help is very much being appreciated. Thank you!!
