Meet Velma
Velma is the definition of easy-going. Friendly, confident and always happy to see people, she's the kind of hamster who quickly wins everyone over with her relaxed nature.
She enjoys being handled, loves spending time in her playpen exploring at her own pace, and is never one to turn down a tasty treat. Whether she's investigating new enrichment or simply saying hello, Velma approaches life with quiet curiosity and confidence.
If you're looking for a sociable Syrian who enjoys interaction and would suit someone wanting a hamster they can build a bond with, Velma could be the perfect match.
