This animal’s daily routine: Lou is sleepy during the day, but happy to take treats whenever you say hi. Outside of cage playtime is in the evening when she's more awake. She runs on her wheel all night, so a silent spinner style wheel is a must if she is going to share a room with anyone!
BFF (Does this animal have or need a friend of the same species in their home?): No, this animal prefers to live alone.
Other species this pet has been exposed to and reaction: Seen cats through cage - indifferent
Has this animal been exposed to children? What was their reaction? None
Health concerns: None.
Behavioral concerns: Lou was very shy when she first arrived at her foster home, but she very quickly come out of her shell and warmed up to interactions with humans! She will come up to people willingly to investigate or explore. She is hesitant to come out of her cage but is comfortable being held in human hands or being pet once she is out and given room to explore. For this, we had placed her in our trust training program to become comfortable with people, and she has since GRADUATED! Learn more about our trust training program at https://www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/trust-training
Other notes: She is an adult Syrian hamster and needs plenty of space to run and explore. Lou is an adorable, curious hamster who loves to run around and explore new things! Her personality is sure to give you a chuckle, and you'll feel the joy each time she comes up to you to say hi.
