      HappyAvon!

      Thank you so much! My hubs brought them home just now and my boy was so happy to see them! He sat in front of them for a whole hour!!
      My students also loved them and found more motivation to come for tuition (get to see hamsters after lesson).
      One student has alot of hamsters and she says that her daddy is very good at differentiating the gender. He'll drop by either tomorrow or Sat morning to check them out before my friend gets to help me check them next weekend.
      Once again, THANKS SO MUCH!!
      *MUACKS!*

      Kiddo,
      Thanks for the cage and accesories cos I did not have time to go out to buy them with the PSLE and SA2 exams this month. And I don't trust hubs know what to get without getting 'cut at the throat'.
      Really thank you for the items!
      :oops: Enjoy them :love: :love:

        My hubs bought food already. I think I'll go get some bedding & sand.

        And my boy was telling me that they each need their own food bowl and insisted that we had to get them their own food bowls. hahaha. I will go check out at the petshop tomorrow šŸ™‚
        Hi I dun think u need one bowl each...they will still trampled on all the bowls ...when I had 4 babies and one mummy in the cage, I had 2 bowls n everytime two/ three will squeeze into each bowl..if u place each bowl with food and if they dun finish, may not be fresh anymore..I prefer to change fresh food everyday....The babies love to feed on dried meal worms n maybe u can buy one pkt as snacks...I'm thinking probably they will miss them cos I give them some every nite... šŸ˜„

              You can go to SPCA website.

                SPCA charges $10 a hamster, not sure if the price has gone up now and they do not give you free cages. But from my experience, better not get from the SPCA.

                I got my first hamster from there, but the hamster died within a month, so made me wonder if they knew the exact age of the hamster that they put up for adoption. They told me that it was a young hamster.

                Second hamster also ended up the same way, so no more hamsters from SPCA for me from then on.

                Nothing against the SPCA, just my own experience where hamsters are concerned, but I got my dog from there and it's been 6 years, and she's still around.

                  Oh dear, 25hourmaid!

                  But at least the dog has been around for a long time!

                    Thanks a lot to those who have shared and replied.

                    It really depends on luck; a newly bought thing also can spoilt. We have bought fish and died the next day.
                    Basically, we are hoping to see anybody giving up their hamster and we take over from there.
                    Dd will be paying and thus trying to look for the lowest cost available.
                    Thanking you in advance.

                      Precisely! My younger son was heartbroken (he was quite young then) and cried buckets when the first hamster died and that was a very special hamster whom we fondly called Hamie. She's still our beloved hamster after all these years.

                      And yes, luckily we got a young and healthy dog as compared to the two hamsters we got from there.

                        Can understand how he felt.
                        I cried buckets when my first hamster died 3 years ago.
                        She was only 7 months old.
                        So i decided to have lots of hamsters to comfort myself.
                        Having pets is therapeutic.
                        Btw, my guinea pig has just given birth to 2 pups which are sooooo adorable.
                        The mommy and daddy did not have kids for 1 year before i adopted them. Just when i was about to adopt them, the female must have become pregnant cos i neutered the male almost immediately after i adopted them.
