It's uncommon knowledge that hamsters are territorial.
Well shucks now the new one is lonely.
Buy a few more and start an underground hamster fighting league.
I agree with 25. You should have done some research first before you bought a new hamster. How do you take care of your hamster if you didn't even bother to research a bit about them. let this be a lesson for you and never buy a pet again before you know everything you need to take care of them. YDI but your hamster didn't.
I didn't know that they would be territorial. After all, when you buy them in the pet store, they are all clustered together in the same cage. They all seem to get along then.(: I had two growing up and they both got along fine. Playing follow the leader games and such. They're cute but wow, they're little shit machines!
actually female hamsters are perfectly fine together, as long as the cage is spacious and enough room for both hamsters to feel comfortable.
No no no, hamsters do not like it to be with more then one in the same cage. Open Wikipedia for christ's sake, you can read it very clear: 'most hamsters are solitary'. Tadaah. Solitary, which means they like to be (!) alone (!). Only baby hamsters can be held together (and the Roborovsky, I think), which means that everyone who puts two hamsters in the same cage is a plain idiot who shouldn't have a pet in the first place. Yeah, maybe your two hamsters don't kill eachother, but truth is, they are not happy to have another hamster in their territoria.
I agree.... You're not putting a "friend" in with the hamster, you're putting in an invader.
When a female hamster has babies they are very territorial! You can't even touch near the babies, or the hamster will eat them
#38, that's because they're from the same litter. If you buy two of them at the same time, it might work. Everyone who has a hamster should know that, otherwise you ain't educated enough for owning the pet you have.
You bought a sociopathic hamster with the need to release latent maniacal pent-up aggression. FYL.
F the hamsters life... Not yours...
Ooooh ya sorry about that OP your talking about Johnny ya he is my apprentice, I've told him all I know, his graduation to EvilMaster was to kill one of his own kind.
He was jealous that you went to homecoming with the other one.

LMFAOOO
lol I got 20 on the brown one!
25-You'd be surprised at the amount of idiots that come into my store not knowing this. Even when I explain this to adults they don't want to listen and give me the "I don't care! Gimme!" attitude. I've refused a ton of sales because of this. Luckily for me, the managers at my new store back me up on this.
That's one of the main reasons why I quit working for Petsmart. The managers were more concerned about making a sale than they were about sticking with their "we care for animals" bullshit. Not only did it make me look like an idiot and an asshole for looking out for the best interest of the animal, but it also wasted my time I could have spent with other customers who want to take proper care of their new pets :(
@105: WTF is up with you? You live in a communist country? Over here, we tell our ELECTED leaders to screw themselves. Judging ain't got nothing to do with it...
Why do you always write tons?
Because I have lots to say??
110- Yeah, but what do you expect? Thats how large corporations work.. it's not about the customer, employee, or the animals, it's about that big fat wallet. I hate my job, if I don't think someone should have an animal I tell them no and refuse it to them. I wont send the animal to it's death. the people in pet care I believe should have the power to refuse an animal. We are considered "experts" compared to the managers who know very little about anything other than a dog or cat.
'Maybe you know a lot about hamsters (good for you), but that does NOT give you the right to judge people.' Yes it does. If you don't know that hamsters are solitary, you shouldn't have one, simple as that. I hate irresponsible pet owners. **** the hamster's life.
I believe you mean afterlife.
Funny thing is, the managers told me I was allowed to refuse a sale if I knew the animals weren't going to be cared for/handled properly. Hypocrites. I'm sorry you hate your job :( I used to love being a pet care specialist until my managers pulled that shit. I love my new company though :)
It's COMMON knowledge ****!
It's common knowledge to pokemon masters that rattata are territorial.
if it's online it has to be true right? ;)
Agreed
Very tough indeed
It's a hamster eat hamster world out there.
Now your back to where you started
I always wanted to woop stuart littles ass, wait he's a mouse. Edit: damn double post srry everyone
I always wanted to wool stuart littles ass, wait he's a mouse.
This is how mike vick got put away before you know it OP will be getting people from all over the hood to bet on hamster fights.
Survival of the fittest.
survival of the...furriest.
Yep, and that pretty much fixed the loneliness problem. The first hamster was a little whimp anyways.
One time I brought a new girl home to keep the old one company. She didn't like it so much either :/
Did she kill the old one too?
Ya i did that too... Cept i got beat up by both of them :(
Anyone who has hamsters..should know that!! The only time you should put hamsters together is for mating , then remove right away
if only it was that easy for humans :/
Hamsters are loners, don't really care for company
Everybody knows thats what happens! YDI all the way
Have you considered a boa or a monitor to keep the new hampster company?
You're an idiot. You're supposed to gradually introduce them and after being alone for a while rodents don't like other rodents. Why the heck didn't you at least watch them? YDI the hamster didn't. Idiot.
