new rodent pet

today, me and sm adopted 2 dwarf hamsters of the roborovskii breed and both is about 3 months old. we adopted them from mvo's colleague after hearing from pixel that hamsters are available for adoption. a month ago while visiting those pet shops, both of us had the idea of keeping them as a pet. we got the news from pixel last week that they can be brought to their new home and last friday itself, we went to pet safari to check out the cages, beddings, foods and other stuffs. we were lucky that we did not have to buy any of the them as sm's friend and brother-in-law were kind enough to gave us their habitrail cages. so, we only have to get the beddings, foods, food container and the water bottle.

on the way home, they were asleep and once when we reached home, me and sm had to try waking them up before transfering them into their new habitrail safari home. they were quite anxious about it and started moving around and exploring their new home. after a while, one of them stopped wondering around while the other one were quick enough to try out the wheel and the elevated deck. according to mvo's colleague, both of them were males and we're still thinking of what to call them. suggestions?

up till now, the active one are still running around, exercising in the wheel and scratching the cage wall. i think the other one must have gotten annoyed after being woken up by us. anyway, both of us were very happy with them and they looked just so cute and adorable. lots of thank you to pixel, mvo, mvo's colleague, lee and san. checked out their photos below and once we've decided on their calling, i will post about them again.

mvo... pixel's hamster were trained by one of our colleague in the office today. teaching him to climb onto the tubings and tower. he is now back to pixel's care.

sm... yeah!! adorable and cute!! but they are quite lazy. sleep all the time esp the fatty one.

pixel... fatty is super lazy while skinny is the most active one. explore the entire cage and started mucking around with the toys. still thinking what to name them and nola.. not fatty and skinny.
