Added on December 13, 2007, 5:09 pmJackJack so fat fat cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I like your wheel! Yesterday PS didnt have that nice wheel, only the cheap ones, haha. I have so many plans for MoFo... wanna set his tank better, buy some ceramik houses instead... I want to use the corncob bedding.... but under budget la now, so will use delikate until finish (I just have small packs anyway) then try that. Is it hard for the hamster? Can cover smell or not? I like cos it looks cleaner, hahahah...

I like JackJack tank, put more pics please

The pet store is in Connaught's Giant? All I know is when during Wednesday's pasar malam, there is a 'stall' which sells pets nearby the KFC... Their star attraction is Siberian husky... They also have hamsters, puppies, scorpions, etc...

The wheel bought from Pet Lovers Centre Sunway for about RM70+. PS haven't got their wheels from Hagen as they also no stock. Its the same wheel as in the Habitrail Safari.

I'm now using corncob, recycle paper and also Timothy hay as bedding for JackJack. The Timothy hay actually cover the smell from JackJack's poopoo and urine...

Hehehehehehe.... Introducing, MoFo my boy!
Went to SP after work and got him. He's quite tame, a bit cautios which is normal I was told. What I need to do is to handle him on daily basis to let him get accustomed to my smell I am sooooo happy. Being a noobs in hamster, I REALLY REALLY REALLY shud have got a syrian last time and not the dwarfs It is so different, being a wussy as I am, scared of being bitten and all, I shud have taken a syrian instead... what a charming lil boy!!!!!! Sigh. I am thinking of letting my WW for adoption... I can handle them alright but not as easy as I handle MoFo the syrian... how ah? I feel so bad.

Anyway, MoFo is 5 mths old according to PS. He is white banded (right?), I know he looks the same like other syrians but he has this 3 dots at his back, hehe. SP currently only have 6 syrians, 1 female and 5 males. Is him too old? She said he is already at his peak size, cannot grow any bigger... but I am determine to grow him sideways, hehehehehehe... now he's sleeping in the red roof house (as in the pic below) he's a cute fella, very shy and cautious but he never bite (yet) and OMG, I am so jakun cos I can handle him so easy!!!

Here are the pics!!





I also made a video of him exercising for 100m in Olympic 2008 next year, teehehe.



P.S: Do you think I should get my WW & Pudding adopted? Am I a bad person if I do that?

Wah!! This is Jack Jack's brother lah... He look exactly like Jack Jack... Soon you'll feel that 2 feet tank is too small for him cos now we are using ZooZone2, a 3 feet tank for him. Jack Jack very smart and can think of ways to escape and do stunt.

I like PS for their service, they drilled a hole for the water bottle also when we bought Jack Jack. One thing, the wheel maybe too small for MoFo, see if he bend his back curve when he is playing the wheel. We bought a 8 inch wheel for Jack Jack. know what? The wheel is more expensive than the tank...

You are just like me leh, I also bought 2 robos from Pet Safari before getting Jack Jack, having hard time to tame them as well and they are so scared being handle, but I'll still keep them even though I can't handle them and play with them like Jack Jack, but still they look so cuteeee......

You'll find yourself love MoFo more and more after you can really handle him cos he will be so manja and look soo... cuteee..... You just can't not to love him...

I'm so happy that Jack Jack found his brother MoFo and his sister Shakira (siokjinlim's syrian)...

HAhaha... I also got a Syrian from PS... but dunno related to MoFo, JackJack and Shakira or not.... Mine is a golden banded hahahah...

Anyway, an 8 inch wheel is the best. Better, get a 9 inch but the 9 inch wheels are not suitable for hamsters since metal bars.... so the best is an 8 inch wheel.

Hehehe yeah lor... I havent really decided to get my WW and Pudding adopted cos they so cute already mah... but if I can find someone who would pay 100% attention to them and play with them better than me, I will consider also.

MoFo is trying really hard to escape! Now the wheels I put in the middle cos he tried to climb on it and escape when I put at the side... When I'm home I leave the top open cos I wanna look, heheh... and YES I think the wheel is small lor... need to buy new one, so kesian MoFo needs to arch his back a little I thot so already... weekend coming will go shopping hehe.

Hmmm... I put dried alfafa inside the tank.. a lot more now than in the pictures... with the sticks and leaves all... it smells nice, hehe cover the poopoo and peepee smell also... but I have a Q... it's ok right to put the dried alfafa lots and lots of it? I read it can also be used as xtra bedding besides for gnawing. I also see him hording some back inside the little house, hehehehe.

Hmm... but he sleeps a lot la.. is that normal for few days? He is less cautios with me today than yesterday... after some reading I know he is half tamed that's why he's not biting.. I hope he's tamed soooooon! Very soft and cuddly haha... and funny as hell when he sits and eat, haha.

Last few Qs:
1. How old is JackJack? U know birtdate or not, then I can also know MoFo's bthday
2. I see JackJack is so round and fur like so neat and close to the body... will MoFo become like that? Now he's still kurus, ringan only... bulu only like soft and fluffy

Added:
3. Can the wheel now used by MoFo be used by Momo and Fufu? It's not too big right?

this baby RC is mine now..

So nice can hold your dwarf like that I still cannot do it always scoop with something, put on palm and pray they will not bite when they nibble also sweat come out already hahahaha... stupid

MoFo is running in the wheel now.. hehehe nice can play play with him.. but me still being careful if he bites sure painful but yeah la, syrian is the best option for hamster noobs. Have to get that 8 inch wheel fast ah... see him run like tak puas.. like he wants to go faster and run wider but cannot hmmm...

lucky loo.. she is tame now..
i can pick her up from her tank without using any thing to scope..

ya la.. since she was very young young baby, i feed her as a 2nd mother..
her mother was died when she was 2 weeks old..

actually my friend gave me this hamster because i help him look after her for few weeks until now..

Anyone know how to make hamster tame? I really want to. My female hamster always run away. The male ok ok la.. T_T"

for me, spend more time with them for playing with them..
at least 5 minutes per day..

I found this thread at the hamsterhideout.com very very useful
Taming Hamster for Noobs!

my MoFo is progressing very fast! Spend the whole night playing until now (see now it's 3.22am) hehehehe... now he comes to my hand when I put it in the tanks instead of avoiding it, teehehe. Put him on my bed, he walked around try to eat my book... my notebook cable... my shorts then put him in the bathtub... hahaha, he walk and walk around and when I put him back in the tag he straight went to sleep! Must be tired!

We had a lot of fun tonight! I'm so happppppppy! MoFo is so crazy, running on his wheels then step out of it and straight pengsan, flat on his stomach Zzzzzz! I hope this is normal

My WW and Pudding is sleeping, as usual ignoring me, sigh. still avoiding my hands, haha... but at least they dont bite

WAhh... such a good owner, spending so much time with your MoFo... good good

Great idea there putting them in the bathtub, big place for them to play around + you won't scare if they run away... duno where horrr.... but too bad, i don't have bathtub at home...

When bring them out to play, sometimes i feel so tiring coz they run here and there... i think taking care of human baby is not so tiring... wahahhaa...

Thanks dude!!

Good to hear you MoFo!!

Now im placing tissue in my .. xD

Update.

I checked up and down and didnt find any blood stain inside the tank. I hold her and check no more blood shit leow.
I hope she is fine now.


Another question:

I am using Habitrail Mini, can I use those part from Safari or Playground or Ovo ?

Thanks.

Glad no more blood. Like human, shit blood can also be sigh of err constipation, not enough water

Hmm dunno about the habitrail... but I think la... can mah, these pieces shud work well with each other? But dont buy Ovo, I heard bad comments... low ventilation etc
