You can always upload the picture of you Hamster at: www.tinypic.com
Pick the photo you want to show us and resize it to 640x480 (the resize is under the browser button at the site and there are more options to resize, but the best is this one) and then copy the forum code.

Hello people,

Today I'm at this topic to rant about a video I watched at Youtube minutes ago...
I was searching for Hamster videos and I saw one that got my attention: Hamster fight.
I watched it with the intention to report it to Youtube, well, not fighting at all, but 2 Syrian Hamster who "hate" each other (Oh, really? Are you serious? They are HAMSTERS and even worse SYRIAN HAMSTERS...) were being forced to be close to each other...and more, both Hamster don't seem healthy at all and at least one of them (the oldest one) is kept in a small bird cage, and when I say small it's really SMALL, no wheel as well and as if it were not enough, the cage was dirty...very dirty...
I reported it, I think youtube will do nothing, but still...then, I went to their channel and found just another video about their Hamsters, two Hamsters breeding, the female seems to have Wet-Tail or something similar like diarrhea and they don't look healthy in ANY WAY, as well for the "cage" (not a cage at all, something made of plastic, can't really tell, but it's small anyway) which was pretty dirty as well...

Sigh, it's hard, but what can we do?...


/Sorry for the rant, I'm just too angry.

Wow what a -beep- I hate people who disrespect animals and deny them of their needs. I hate people who hurt animals too which in this case is hurting because theyre letting them die. and Arent syrian hamsters suppose to not be together?

Indeed, all the Hamsters should be kept one per cage, even Dwarfs and Chinese Hamsters, I have 60 Hamsters and all of them have their own cages, even when I had Robovorski.
It's against their nature to kept them together, that rule is for all species, even Hamsters who rarely fight, they are living in a constant psychological instability.

I'm pretty sad about this and guess what, just watched another one from another user, but they were really fighting this time! And they were both Syrian Hamster, one male and one female.

Oh wow. i used to have two russian dwarf hamsters but their cage was huge, and had alot of tubes. They were the best hamsters I ever had, they both died at 2 years old. And every morning i'd wake up to see they sleeping snuggley together in this little house thing i bought for them.

[The Mad Girl]

Oh, I'm sorry for your loss.
Usually a lot of people have them together (Dwarfs and Chinese Hamsters) and forget about their nature and instinct, so, they put wrong information on the internet I really do not blame you, I know how it is hard to find sites with correct information, most of the Pet Shops give wrong information as well, in a Google Search I could only find 2 or 3 sites with correct information, something I always advise is Hamster Forums with many users registered to give their opinions, they are always better than any site.

That video is distressing...
