My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Lucero is one of seven dwarf hamsters who were on the transport from San Diego Humane Society to the Humane Society here in Tucson. Please Google the news reports if you have questions.

Lucero has rehabilitated nicely and was recently separated from his brothers into his own bin cage you see here which is available to purchase if you do not have an appropriate sized cage of your own. This little boy has a gentle disposition and isn't hand shy, but he will need an adopter to go slow with him and build trust over time.

Lucero's name means light, all of the animals from the transport were given names meaning the same to offset the dark situation they came from.

If interested in adopting Lucero, email homesweethammyhome@gmail.com and to see videos about his rescue visit our social media pages.

More about this rescue

There was a need in our community for a small animal rescue as well as care education for these amazing, often overlooked pets, so Home Sweet Hammy Home was established. Our goal is to teach updated care to anyone interested, take in as many as we have room and supplies for and create suitable habitats that our rescues can thrive in. We will then make these available to adopters if they don't have a proper one of their own.
