Owning a Hamster: Housing and Care
First off, let’s just put the title of this article straight. As my hamster Molly will tell you, a hamster does not get owned, it is a very independent creature that will happily live with you, if you provide it with the ideal environment and lots of treats.

Hamsters really do make great pets for both adults and children alike. They are easy to handle, being somewhat slower and with less of a tendency to dart about than other small rodents such as mice and gerbils. As long as they are handled from when they are young, hamsters are very friendly and will happily spend time with their owners.
