Chinese Hamsters:

Picture
Name: Yotsuyu
Age: 6 months
Sex: Female
Status: Available
Health: Healthy
Notes:
Yotsuyu arrived as part of a large hoarding case. Over 400 animals were removed from a property; we took 33 hamsters initially. Fortunately, most of the animals were in ok conditions, but most of the females were pregnant, nursing, or both.
Yotsuyu arrived cohabbing with a male Chinese hamster, and was also nursing her son Gosetsu. She received two Alizin injections as she'd been exposed to a male, massively reducing her chances of having another litter. Regardless, she was still monitored for a full gestation period. She was a dedicated Mum and has a very sweet nature. She can be slightly jumpy, but is overall a very friendly lady.
Minimum Donation: £20.00

​Notes:
Gosetsu ​arrived as part of a large hoarding case. Over 400 animals were removed from a property; we took 33 hamsters initially. Fortunately, most of the animals were in ok conditions, but most of the females were pregnant, nursing, or both.
Gosetsu is Yotsuyu's son, and has had the very best upbringing thanks to her being such an incredible Mother despite the stress she went through. Gosetsu can be a little flighty and quick to catch, but is friendly and able to be handled.. He will be ready to be adopted once he's 8 weeks old.
Minimum Donation: £20.00

Roborovski Dwarf Hamsters:

Picture
Name: Presta
Sex: Female
Age: Under 6 months
Status: Available
Health: Healthy
Notes:
Presta arrived cohabbing with another robo, Fleta. The pair were separated upon arrival as it's not recommended that you keep hamsters together.
Presta is a lively young robo who always comes out to investigate when us humans are around. She loves having a large sand bath (as recommended for roborovskis), and enjoys foraging.
She's got your classic robo personality; speed, quick to handle, but full of character.
Minimum housing requirements of 100cm by 50cm.
Minimum Donation: £20.00

Picture
Name: Fleta
Sex: Female
Age: Under 6 months
Status: Available
Health: Healthy
Notes:
Fleta arrived living with her sister, Pesta. The girls were separated upon arrival.
Fleta is a striking pure white roborovski, which is quite rare to see - she's gorgeous. She's inquisitive and very nosey, often seen out and about in her enclosure.  She's very entertaining to watch!
Like many robos, handling isn't her strong point, but she is manageable.
Minimum housing requirements of 100cm by 50cm.
​Minimum Donation: £20.00

Picture
Name: Digit
Sex; Male
Age: 1 year
Status: Available
Health: Healthy
Notes:
Digit arrived in our care after a concerned volunteer saw him being given away free to anyone. Worried about where he would end up, they kindly brought him to us so we can find him a proper well-vetted home.
Digit loves to burrow and build huge nests. He's quite shy, but does slowly warm up to you - his curiosity gets the better of him.
His original home had poor and outdated husbandry standards, so Digit really deserves the perfect forever home so he can experience what every hamster needs. 
Minimum Donation: £20.00

Picture
Name: Buzz
Sex: Male
Age: Around 6 months
Status: Available
Health: Some small wounds upon arrival from fighting with another hamster, but these have healed well. No further issues.
Notes:
Buzz is sadly a victim of pet shops. He was sold with another roborovski, something which has been discouraged for a while now. Unfortunately, Buzz fatally attacked his cage mate, but didn't come away unharmed. 
His owners loved him dearly and realised they'd been misinformed - something which is so common. They wanted Buzz to live the life he deserved with the correct husbandry standards, so they signed him over so we could give him just that. He's settled in very well and absolutely loves to burrow. He's rarely spotted out and about, but you will see him late evening coming out for some snacks and exercise.

Russian Dwarf Hamsters:

Picture
Name: Patrick
Sex: Male
Age: 1 year
Status: Available
Health: Healthy
Notes:
Long stay resident

Patrick was signed over as part of a large intake who were cohabiting upon surrender. They were bickering straight away, so we separated them and they've been doing very well since.
They're all confident and happy to be handled, but it's important that you're calm and gentle with them so they're not spooked. They'd be suitable for a home with older children.
Minimum Donation: £20

Name: Candy
Age: 6 months
Sex: Male
Status: Available
Heath: Had multiple injuries upon surrender, all of which have since healed.
Notes:
Long stay resident
Candy came as part of a larger intake of young Russian dwarf hamsters who'd not been separated despite clear evidence of fighting. They were all separated upon arrival; most of whom had injuries and extensive fur loss.
Since being separated, the hamsters all made full recoveries and are now up for adoption.
Candy is a lovely hamster who's able to be handled so long as you're calm, but can be a little dramatic when first disturbed - understandably. With someone willing to put the time and effort in, they'll blossom into a lovely natured hamster.

Age: 8-12 months

Health: Healthy
Notes:
Arthur arrived as part of a large hoarding case. Over 400 animals were removed from a property; we took 33 hamsters initially. Fortunately, most of the animals were in ok conditions, but most of the females were pregnant, nursing, or both.
Arthur has been in foster for his assessment period and has been thriving. He is a curious boys, and does test nip with his teeth initially. These aren't painful bites that break the skin, just curiosity. Arthur wouldn't be suitable for a home with children, and would benefit from an individual who is experienced with hamsters.

Notes:

Fred is a gentle hamster who requires a confident and calm handler. He's a little more shy than some of the others, but is still a lovely hammy - especially considering the horror he has been through. Fred very much enjoys his wheel after a life without one, and really appreciates everything he has now.

Graham is absolutely gorgeous and he knows it! He's a sweet little hamster who would be suitable for confident handlers. He is friendly, but can be spooked when disturbed - who could blame him! He absolutely loves pottering about his cage and finally having enrichment.

James arrived at the rescue at only a few weeks old. Unfortunately, their Mother wasn't in the container with them, so we suspect she'd been removed as she was nursing another litter. Despite the rocky start in life, James is a lovely hamster who'd need an owner to continue building his confidence as he reaches adulthood.

Charlie arrived still nursing from his Mum, Edith. Edith was a dedicated Mum and really helped raise some lovely little hammies. Charlie is what we like to refer to as a drama llama; he's extremely dramatic if disturbed, and can be a little nippy and quick to handle. As such, Charlie would benefit from an experienced and confident handler, and would be best suited for a home without children.

Gloria arrived raising four beautiful babies. She was clearly getting fed up with her kids towards the end, but still did a tremendous job raising them. Gloria deserves some peace and quiet now, and is very thrilled to not be sharing an enclosure with 4 busy babies. She would be suitable for a first-time owner as she's a gentle and placid girl.

Elias arrived still nursing from his Mum, Gloria. Elias is a bit of a wild one and can be quite nippy if he wakes up on the wrong side of the bed. He'd be best suited for an experienced owner, and wouldn't be suitable for a home with children.

Gail was only a pinkie when she arrived at the rescue nursing from her Mum, Julie. We watched her grow into the beautiful hamster that she is today. Thanks to Julie being an amazing Mum, she's raised some truly lovely kids. Briony is a friendly hamster with a lovely nature. She's quite nosey, so you do often see her when you're out and about. She will need an owner to continue socialising her and giving her lots of positive interactions. She's incredibly busy, and would benefit from a large and cluttered environment,

​Notes: Rosalind arrived as part of a large hoarding case. Over 400 animals were removed from a property; we took 33 hamsters initially. Fortunately, most of the animals were in ok conditions, but most of the females were pregnant, nursing, or both.
Rosalind was only a pinkie when she arrived at the rescue nursing from her Mum, Julie. Of her siblings, Rosalind is the most reserved. She's very gentle and quiet, but with someone to continue building her confidence, she will absolutely flourish. Don't make the mistake of holding her cautious nature against her, as she's a very sweet girl. 
For security, Rosalind would benefit from a busy and cluttered enclosure with lots of places she can retreat to. Feeling secure will be an essential part of building her confidence.
