Fun fact I refilmed this exact video 5 times, why? Because I’m never satisfied with what I create 😅 hopefully it’s helpful though! Saturday’s video is something fun and different so stay tuned 💓

I had a Syrian hamster who’d been sent back to the shop 4 times! I got her when my parents split up and I was told she was dangerous. She bit other people but never bit me and it was like she almost knew she was there to comfort me and make it easier. She was amazing!

when you said “a syrian” my siri went off 😂

I had the sweetest little winter white/cambell girl. She never bit me once and was super sweet when handled. She used to sit and eat with me. I miss her.

I absolutely love how she's talking about a certain breed of hamsters and she's also showing off her cute babies

Some may be filled with energy *looks over my shoulder at my hamster and nods

I had a winter white hamster, and she died in May. She NEVER bit me. She was such a nice and calm hamster.

i got a hamster a while back. i realised soon after i wasn’t able to provide everything he needed, and i was terrified to ask my parents about it since i’ve begged them for one for months on end. i felt so ashamed and disappointed in myself because of the amount of research i did, i thought it would be easy. i plucked up the courage and asked my parents about buying a new cage. they said it was a silly idea as his cage was “already big enough” which i knew it wasn’t. even though we only had two weeks together, i felt like i really liked wilbur. when i finally plucked up the courage to ask my parents to take him back with me, it took a day but i convinced them. i thought it would be the best idea since i felt horrible 24/7 knowing i wasn’t able to give him the time or space he needed. it’s been almost 2 weeks without him, and i really miss him. i just pray he gets a better home and i pray i did the right thing.

My dwarf hamster is NOT aggressive as soon as I got him he was already tame and he never bit me he is the sweetest little guy ever 🥰

Hamsters are super dangerous animals and should not be kept as pets, You could die from the cuteness

*my hamster just eats and sleep and he is a MEGA CHONKER*

6:17 Yes finally! So many people say “I hate cats because one attacked me” or “dogs are mean and they love biting people” but they just had one bad experience and that doesn’t mean the whole species is terrible and evil. Also it was prolly because they had bad dog/cat body language or they approached an animal who was clearly scared

My Syrian hamster was so energetic and I felt bad for him because he was never happy, but nevertheless I tried so hard to satisfy him. He was so friendly, and he has never bitten anyone. He is close to my heart but he's crossing the rainbow bridge now 🌈

Chinese hamsters are me: Sleep a lot, super shy and like all hamsters love food and hoard it....me.

One of my favorite hamsters was a male robo . He never bit me. He just passed away in His sleep last night. He was a big part of our family.

I got my winter white a few days ago, he’s such a sweet heart and let me pet him, he even sat on my palm.

I know the best beginner pet! Plants 🌱

My dwarf hamster was my best friend. His name was Arthas, he passed away Sunday night and I had him for 2 1/2 years. He loved cuddles! Sweetest lil dude

"i have been bitten less by dwarfs than i have by syrians" well that's getting taken out of context

I had a winter white hamster and she was the most calm and social hamster i've ever seen!!! she basically didn't need time to adjust when we brought her home and immediately started eating and drinking in front of me and she used to let everyone pet her to the point where anyone could introduce their hand to her cage and she climbed up to them with so much confidence and calmness!! (this might be because she associated this with getting treats since that's how i tamed her when she came home though, idk)

I had a winter white for three years. She was my first ever hamster and I named her Pepsi and she was my everything. She loved being picked up and handled and she did nibble but more out of curiosity. She was such a sweet heart. She got along with my Guinea pigs too. Now after two years of mourning im thinking of getting a hamster again. I am debating trying something harder like the robo hamster. This video helped a lot with choosing what one I want to take on as a pet owner.

Victoria:"robo hamsters are the least recommended first time hamsters" Me:*looks at my first time robo hamster* sorry....

I have a video suggestion! Can you make a HOW NOT TO SET UP A HAMSTER CAGE. I think it would be such a informative video for beginners!

Syrian hamsters are just the "entitled" hamsters of their species.. Mine is spoiled. And he still complains.😤 An ungrateful, chunky McChicken nugget he is.

My first hamster who I still have is a male Chinese hamster named Leopold . He was a bit shy but he eventually got used to me. I’ve noticed he likes a lot of bedding and is very active at night which is typical for hamsters as far as I can tell.

I got a dwarf roborovski as my first hamster and she was perfect. She trusted me and allowed me to hold her and pick her up very quickly and never really bit me. I loved her so much and am happy that I was able to give her a good home. She unfortunately passed away in March and I miss her every day 😔😭

i’m a thirteen year old girl,i got a robo for my first hamster, i’ve only had him for a bit but he’s super nice, he was a little skittish at first but the second day i started trying to tame him he plopped down on my hand and started grooming himself. i think that like victoria said, a creature isn’t defined by its species, it’s defined by itself

"I DO NOT RECOMEND ROBOS FOR A FIRST TIMR HAMSTER OWNER" me having a robo and being a first time hamster owner 👁👄👁

My winter white hamster bit me when i got overly eager with him when i first got him after weeks of work trying to bond with him, so i had to start from scratch to build our bond and eventually i started handling him regularly and he never bit me again. He passed 2016 but i miss him to this day, he was the sweetest 💜

My first hamster is a Syrian and I’m telling you, she definitely has the energy of a robo 😂

The closest thing I’ve gotten to having a close relationship with my hamster is petting it for like 3 minutes

I have a winter white Campbell's hybrid and the FIRST day i got him he climbed into my hand (without me trying to get him to) and wasn't scared or timid at all, He's very sweet💕

I had one cambell dwarf which was quite mean to me theyre whole life, i was starting to think they were all like that until i got a winter white hybrid. She was the sweetest little girl ever, never bit me, always very calm. Didn't even try to run off most of the time, and even fell asleep next to me twice. Snowflake will be missed. ❤️

I have a winter white dwarf hamster and she’s really calm and sweet she is my first hamster and she never bites

I have a robo and she is so nice she just crawls onto my hand when I put my hand in her cage and I've only had her for a month

I had a roberoski for my first and she was a tough one to tame but we had the best relationship and she was so cute, I’ve currently got a Syrian now and even though they’re a lot calmer he’s really really shy so it’s going to take longer to tame but it’s worth it :)

**people playing with their hamsters** me: -casually staring into my hamsters soul-

Hehe, I’m early. And my first hammy used to be a Russian Dwaf Hamster.

I was just watching you lol Edit: I 100% agree with you. My sweet pumpkin, Latte, is so hard to please. I get really stressed when my lil’ Latte is stressed or not pleased. But, I know she is happy, so that does soothe me.

My first two hamsters were winter whites (probably hybrid too) but they made me fall head over heels in love with hamsters. They were the best little boys ever and my third was a Syrian who I loved so much that it traumatized me when he died and 11 years later I’m finally ready to get a new hamster 🐹

My first hamster was a syrian, and she was a doll. I could handle her, she trusted me. She loved saying hi every morning to me from her aquarium, but then she started escaping it so I got her a more square footage two story cage and she loved it. She was my sweetheart. Lived to two

Very true that ham hams are all different! My little winter white acts NOTHING like a regular dwarf.

It looks like you always make the videos I need. Thank you!

Almost a year ago now I really got the urge to get a hamster. I was immediately drawn to a specific little dwarf at the pet store. I left without him that day but couldn’t stop thinking about him, and ended up going the next day. I never even had to train him at all. He is the sweetest little guy and I just adore him. Since day one he has loved to sit in my hand eating treats, and sometimes sleeps in the sleeve of my rob. He even comes out of his burrowed spots when he hears my voice. Anyway, since buying him a year ago I’ve been watching your videos and enjoy them all. 😍

I got a chinese dwarf hamster last year for christmas after researching for months on your channel, and she’s the sweetest! I was told that she’d be skittish and it would take a while for her to trust me, but after she adjusted to my house and her new cage, she never bit or was shy with me, and even comes out sometimes during the daytime!

When ever I get a hamster I let the hamster choose me😊by letting them like walk onto my hand 🐹

After owning a ton of Syrians I had bought a dwarf and I adored him he was adorable and very friendly so I guess it depends on you

Everytime i try to put my hamster back in his cage he will climed my arms And it’s annoying but cute 🥰

I got my first hamster today, at 22. She’s a beautiful all white Robo. I’m perfectly ok if she never becomes calm and tame, but she’s already SO sweet. I think her temperament is really fantastic, which is why I picked her.

Yep the pet store guy gave me a Syrian hamster because “they are the best beginner species” and I’m having a lot of problems, I’m actually selling my bookshelf and getting something to store makeup, hair stuff, and other stuff in something that rolls then moving my vanity and building a new cage to make my baby Rosie happy!!!!! I’m so stressed! She is very mean! But I’m trying to do everything!!!

"There not robots" ROBO dwarf...

I had a Black Bear Hamster that lived over 4 years. Was super friendly and had a wonderful personality.

That’s interesting because my Syrian (who is from petco) seems to be fine in a 40 gallon tank. I give him wheat sprays, boredom breakers, sand baths, chews, and all sorts of toys and all he does in run on his wheel, dig in his sand bath, and burrow, and he’s a happy ham. He honestly for me is a great beginner hamster.

My Russian Campbell’s dwarfs are super friendly when I first picked them up they were really chill and have never bitten me

Victoria: Syrians are hard to please Me: stares at the gaping hole my Syrian chewed in his new cage

I have a 9 month old Syrian hamster named Princely...yup, very hard to please, she's very solitary and doesn't really liked being picked up and even now still tries to escape but isn't aggressive. We have a pretty good relationship, I talk to her every day, let her taste different things and let her dictate what she wants and what her boundaries are. Her sister, who is from the same litter, is quite hyper, more affectionate and mischievious.

Its been a month sense i got my first hamster ( winter white) and he just started to go in my hand and stay with me. He’s so nice and i love him so much❤️

I just got my first hamster yesterday (Syrian) and she was known to be a "brat" and aggressive according to the store workers. But when I took her home, she was sweetest and is already comfortable with me holding her and feeding her by hand :) I've been watching your videos, and they really help a lot!!

In my family’s experience, dwarf hamsters bite a bit more because they were like, ‘look but don’t touch’ whereas the Syrians we had were always looking for attention and climbing up people 😂

My mother bought my daughter a Chinese hamster for her first pet. She's 5. It's also my first time having a hamster. Her name is sweetie and she is indeed very sweet. We've only had her for 3 weeks now and I'm enjoying taking care of her and showing and learning with my daughter about her

my cambells dwarf hamster is really friendly & doesn’t bite me anymore and he is also well liked by my family members & my friends !! he’s super sweet & cute

I've owned my first Robo for about 7 weeks now, a month after I brought him he's taking treats from my hand and inspecting my hand when I introduce it to him; He's doing so well

My hamsters so nice he sleeps in my lap or is very curious around me instead of running he is a very curious hamster and he’s a Syrian

After keeping both Syrian and Russian dwarf hamsters - I'm definitely more team dwarf. The two I have at the moment (kept separately) are really affectionate. When they are free roaming they always try to climb on me. 🥺

My first hamster was a robo, she was so outgoing and cute. She would sit on my shoulder and come out of hiding when she heard people talking, she is the reason I got another hamster. I miss you, Bean

I got a Syrian hamster about 6 months ago and he's EXTREMELY demanding. He has a big cage with plenty of enrichment, since recently he's allowed to free roam (he returns to his own cage after a while and doesn't try to escape). The free roaming seems to have finally satisfied his needs.

I had a robo and that was my first hamster ever and he was really cute and he got tamed in only 3 days I don’t know why people don’t like robos that much anyway unfortunately he passed away and he lived for 2 years Rest In Peace lil buddy😭😭

my winter white dwarf was the sweetest. she was hyper and always bit my fiancé because he didn’t speak to her but she loved me and never bit me 🤣

When I got my first hamster a campbells dwarf, it was so nice and I only took a week to tame it, she’s super nice and friendly… And soft

I COMPLETELY agree with you 100%!💛

I didn’t have to tame my hamster, it took him 1 day to trust us

i have a winter white dwarf hamster and they have only bitten me a couple times. they do have a lot of energy but they are so cute and sweet!! i def recommended as long as you are okay with them not wanting to cuddle. ❤️

I got 2 super adorable winter white dwarf hamsters ,although they’re super cute they would sometimes bite my brother or jump into my food packets and gobble all the food up (in case you didn’t know the male hamster’s name is cuddly and the female is fluffy). Soon after I got them fluffy immediately got pregnant and gave birth 2 times, it gave birth to 7 cute babies 1st then gave birth to 4 more. But soon I realised that it might be a problem because more hamsters means more consumption of food and water, so I had to buy more food packets and water. Although it was a huge waste of money, I could cry to watch them suffer. So I made the largest waste of money to make them happy, I’m glad to see my hamsters running happily.

I personally prefer Syrian hamsters, I've had them when I was younger but would like to look after one again because I am embarrassed and horrified at how bad my past hamster care was, I was 5 or 6 and had no idea what I was doing, the pet stores don't care about the pet care they just want you to buy stuff which explains why all the cages are below the basic needs of a hamster. Having stumbled across your channel a while ago and doing more research specifically on German hamster care standards I will be building my own large DIY cage and filling it with so much bedding I can't wait. I had no idea you could rescue hamsters until I found a whole bunch up for adoption at blue cross (a rescue group)

I’ve never had an unfriendly dwarf. I did have one “agressive” one who did nibble a bit but he still came out for me and he was fine with being held. I think that maybe with a more experienced owner (he was my second) he could’ve been perfectly friendly

I had one campbells dwarf when I was little, who lived double his life expectancy. RIP Mario I loved and miss u

A Chinese was my first hamster 🥺 his name was Ming and I was 9. I wish I would have known then what I know now, he could have had an even better life. He was super tame, came when called, and lived for nearly 3 years. Because of him I still love hamsters today

i have a robo as my first, i am thirteen and he loves to be handled. he doesn't have a crazy amount of energy.

All hamsters are perfect!

ahh we brazilians were so happy and excited with the subtitles, thank you so much for thinking about us too ❤️❤️

My first Hamster was a Syrian and the only person it didn't bite was me. My second was a robo that didn't even need to be tamed, it would run into any hand that got near and never bit. Hand fed that one often; a sad day when is died of old age.

I’ve only ever had Syrians, I’m scared I’m gonna lose the dwarfs or something

Haven't been around hamster's really in some year's I've did plenty of research on there needs and wants a Robo Dwarf hamster is the one I'm really wanting

I've had 4 Chinese dwarfs and they were all pretty good. They are super chill and just kinda sleep all the time and you just watch them. Mine never bit me.

Note:I started having hamsters at 10 and I'm now 19 and yes I live alone I work as a barista for Starbucks and I also own A dog and A lot of shrimp. I also am living in a house (My parents old house they never sold it)

I got a dwarfhamster like two weeks ago, and he was so easy to tame!! He's really curious and often come out from his nest to say hello or play/cuddle. Currently he is 10 weeks old! 😍🐹❤

Am getting a hamster for my birthday! It’s going to be my first pet.

My robo wasn’t very friendly when we got him, but he’s really calm and friendly now and I can hold him without being a little scared..

My Friend has winter white hamster (probably a hybrid) And she is sooo sweet she is very calm and Loves to sit on ur lap but her other hamster is a dwarf and she Really doesn’t like to be played with she loves to be alone

i just got a dwarf hamster and it’s been less than a day and he’s already very comfortable with being held, he wasn’t at first but now, boy oh boy he loves it

My winter white hamster is very sweet. The lady that helped us look at the hamsters said that the winter white hamsters are mean and they bite a lot witch is very surprising for how sweet mine is. You cant assume that the whole breed is that way. I’m so glad that you did the same in your video. ❤️

I have a dwarf hamster! She is actually really calm and not really on the energetic side. And she was actually easy to tame! I recommend them!! (but obviously keep in mind not all are like this)

My Syrian- *gets a tank and loads of chew toys yet still tries to escape* You- "they are not easy to please" Me- "ah yep"

I have a robo dwarf, and since without you, she probably would have lived a short and sad life, I decided to name her Tater Tot! She is almost 4 months old, and is my best friend. She is still a little scared of me, but she know I won’t hurt her, and will come up to me when I open the lid of her cage. She has yet to climb on my hand, but we’re getting there, and I hope everything goes well. Thank you for informing me on the proper care of a hamster, and without you, I would never have really gotten a hamster.

i had a chinese hamster, her name was pellet. she was super skittish and timid at first but ended up just being super chill and relaxed. she loved me a lot cause whenever i went near her cage she'd look and run to the door. she even nibbled on the bars for me to take her out! we use to cuddle all the time and she did have another female hamster friend. she was my best friend and im gonna miss her. personally when they're still young they're super skittish and quick, so it does take time to get use to their speed. also they DO bite, but mine usually gave warning bites when she was scared or uncomfortable

I have a winter white hamster and she is soooooo sweet.She loves to climb up my shirt lol.

I grudgingly admit I'm like a Syrian hamster.

Who else has a Syrian hamster for a starter I do and if you do then.. 👇 plz

i’m a first time hamster owner and i’ve have my chinese dwarf hamster for about 1 year and 6 months .. she was and kinda shy but shes warmed up to me , i def recommended!

I do have syrian hamster and she's a cute black syrian and my mom called her a rat 😂❤️ i love her ❤️
