Jayniel...

I am sorry if I offended her or anyone else.

Scold before knowing the full details is not good and I don't like the tone.

It can be as simple as "hey dude, Habitrail is too small for Syrian, need a bigger cage".

After that, if I said something really stupid then start scolding me. Probably I will try run and hide like that kid in the V6 thread.

Anyway, let's by gone be by gone and move on.

Waaa wat a cute syrian hamster..wht colour is she??golden is it

Yes I agree. We have to admit there are many people who will get pets befor doing research, based on cute impulse lar. But we should try our best to help that someone who will wanna care for their pet despite having no knowledge of how to. It's also one of the reason for this thread right?

that's not a syrian, it's a winter white species.. color is winter gold @ pudding

Sorry for interruption but I have to agree with what d100200 said. No offense but sometimes the replies are a bit "strict". We might be newbies but some of us did really did research before owning a hamster, just that still having some doubts and want to clear the doubts. The "angry" alike tone replies freak us out, and will never dare to ask anymore in here.

Just my 2 cents

lolz, wat u dunno is, when i was first a newbie in hamster, i also 'kena' by the pros in this thread.. but i learn smth n it makes me wanna research more.. this shud be the attitude for every hamster lover, for the benefit of our lovely creatures

^^" I think i will feel incompetent if someone said harshly to me suff like this. Cus I do want the best for my pets.

I apologized for the harsh tone I've use earlier on if it's hurt your feelings

Of cos I'm not the one knowing everything under the sun and there's lots to learn more but I think I know better for Syrians than you, therefore I'm telling what my experience and knowledge.

I think I'm smarter when I bet to other people and know what is suitable to give for Syrian and I will not want a pet with a sudden interest even I'm just a 12 years old kid. Btw, just a friendly suggestion, maybe next time you wanna evaluate how 'adult' yourself are from your reply before judging other people as 12 years old kid

He did something to his rare species Syrian and twisted the fact in here and being not honest to everyone regarding his hamster as he causes death to the hamster if I did get the info correctly.

Added on April 22, 2008, 6:51 amJust wanna make it clear. Some of us here are being 'strict' from the reply cos we really care for hamsters even it's not ownself. It's good to ask noob questions but I think it's also important to do some reading ourself for the basic knowledge rather sit down and keep asking for people to spoon feed. If you think the imoticons freak you out and you dare to ask anymore and make you not giving good care for your pets, then I really dunno what to say. We'll get angry with the actions, not the person cos we do care for the pets and I think all pet's owner should love their pets and give them as good as we can. I can assure you that not all pet's owner will do research or reading before they own a pet, not even after they own the pet. I'm glad you did that.

Added on April 22, 2008, 6:53 amThat's applied on you only. If you really have the heart to give the best care, no one will be harsh but helping. Just not all people like you. They just give whatever unused and left over for their pet. I'm not pinpointed anyone but I do know people like that.

Binky eating her breakfast
din bite me when she on my hand

This post has been edited by anderyna: Apr 22 2008, 09:43 AM

Now I know why Binky bites you.... coz Binky is a hybrid and it inherited the RC biting habit. WW rarely or never bite, but RCs will if they feel uneasy. Puddings have a bit of both species characteristics.

Anyway, about the strict tone. I don't see it as harsh. It is a good way to learn from mistakes. Sangels have been very helpful. There are people here with harsher replies and I do not see Sangels as being harsh. Maybe you guys over sensitive or emo... but you guys must remember, we care for the animal and want you to give the best care you can provide it. No one here is opening their mouths to talk nonsense. We got experience, good and bad so we share.

I have seen many members here who were once very newbie with hamsters and did mistakes, but now they can talk like proper keepers already and have good knowledge. That, I'm really happy and proud to see.

Just some sugar cracker
Hamster love to eat what the most?

haha... i think they love mealworms alot... though i never try before... but alot of forumers here can share their experience. I still haven't overcome myself to really touch mealworms so im not sure how i can handle mealworms, hold them and pass to my hamsters

yep agreed
im a noob too

Omg mealworms?!
I thought mealworms is for fish zz
Just pass to them alive? And they will eat them?

Yup... The hammies love it. But don't get the superworms cause they will bite the hammies back There are pics of our syrians eating mealworms in V6.

Mealworms r rly rich in proteins. It's just like hard boiled eggs in function. Hamsters lover should gv a try feeing them with it.

At which page? Aww
Mealworm smelly? Later my mum nag after i brought them home from pet store

Doesnt hv in petshop.. buy it @ aquarium shop. Buy rm1 or rm2 would do. Ur mum cant notice 1. dun worry
