Rats are happier if they have a few of their own kind for company. 3 is not a lot for rats.

Use wrong acc?
Syrian hamster are solitary so u cant put them together
The shocking face explained it

I just got a new hamster at home, a baby Syrian hamster. Dunno whether I can put my ratties and hamster together when the hamster grow up. I just introduced them to each other today. Tickle and Milo seem anxious to know Teddy (the hamster), but Teddy gave a shocking face when first saw Tickle, Wish they can rili get along like a happy family

I thought they are solitary only when they are grown up cause for now it it still very young. Just a crazy idea of making them friends. ^^ Maybe there is a possibility that they can be friends. *Finger cross*

Urs how old? But IMHO 1st day got it dun introduce 1st la haha
They need time adjust themself in new environment, suddenly see rat omg

I think Teddy is just one month old. Haha.. He seems to calm down quite well and start to play around d. So.. haha. Don't worry. He's fine. He just saw the rat from far. I took safety measurements d. I also thought my rats will think that he's a food but apparently they knew that its another rodent in the house. Haha... But the shocking face was really funny. Milo keep sticking to me the whole night and Tickle keep hiding behind my CPU. *whisper* "I THINK THEY ARE JEALOUS"

later the rat eat the syrian ...horrific scene ...

Show pix.. of the hammie la.. wanted 2 c...

there's a study that shows mice and rats dont go together.. they are like mortal enemies..labs usually keep mice and rats separate room.. can try finding it in science journal..not sure about hamster though..maybe u can try google it up if dont have then after u do experiment can publish your own paper

Here's a picture of Teddy and a picture of me introducing Milo to Teddy. =D

I read some answers from the internet regarding putting hamsters together with rats, most said the hamster will harm the rat instate. =( Anyhow I would like to try it. Just have to be seriously careful and do it slowly.

Wadafa? Solid black???
Things from kar are really different.....
Anw, gotta be more careful though...
Ur rat are so big compare2 ur hammie haha
By saying putting them 2gether, does it mean housing 2gether?

Not really house them together, just let them play together sometimes. ^^

that picture is a rat? i thought it is a mouse..hehe.. looks a bit like the C57BL/6 which i hated so much and curse it everyday for leaving poo poo and pee pee for me to clean up...the only difference is the colour near the ear and nose area..

Haha... mice look more cunning I think. But I like their coloration though. Too bad rats don't have various colours like mice. Milo is just a normal brown hooded rat. =/

cunning in what sense?? CHaracter?? if u put mice in a table wud in MIA and wont come back again?

Their face looks sharper and their ears are bigger. Hehe.. That's the cunning look I feel they have. They look simply chicky. And yea.. It'll go MIA in no time. ^^
