Meet Myth
Myth is a nervous male dwarf hamster who prefers interaction on his own terms. He is not keen on handling, but treats are a good way to begin earning his trust.
He loves burrowing and is happiest when surrounded by plenty of sprays and boredom breakers. An enriching enclosure will give him lots to explore, forage through and keep busy with.
Myth needs a patient adopter who will appreciate watching his natural behaviours without expecting regular handling. With time and gentle interaction, his confidence may continue to grow.
From their foster carer
Myth may be nervous, but his curiosity appears when treats and enrichment are involved. He absolutely adores exploring sprays and boredom breakers!
