Buying Hamsters
Persons under the age of 16 now have to be accompanied by an adult when buying a hamster. But first you should make the following considerations. Are you ready to take on the responsibility of pet owner ship, are you prepared for those unexpected vet bills. Have you prepared a suitable habitat for his home coming? Buying a hamster from a reputable breeder does have some advantages. Knowing that the pet you are buying has been bred and reared to certain standards. I agree that buying hamsters from the pet shop does not have those same advantages. But don't be under the impression that all pet shop bought hamsters are nasty, and sickly little creatures, they are not. If you know what you are looking for there should be no problem in finding a good quality hamster that will make a very good lovable little pet. There are some unscrupulous breeders out there who have no concerns whatsoever about temperament issues, and are breeding for the profits that can be generated. Theses are the breeders that we want to try and avoid. On the next page we hope to outline some of the finer points to look for. When you buy your pet from the local store. Go to Buying hamsters.
