Full Advert Details
This is Peanut, he is a 13 week old male Syrian hamster and he is looking for his forever home.
Peanut came to me after his old owner lost her job and couldn’t care for him anymore, he was well looked after but didn’t have a large enough cage or a wheel. He has now been upgraded, and running on his wheel is one of his favourite things! Peanut is a very friendly little guy, he loves coming out of his cage for playtime. Especially in a playpen! He is a little bit weary when you first pick him up, but within a few seconds he settles in your hands and is lovely to handle. He doesn’t bite, or nibble and he never has.
To adopt Peanut you must have a cage that is at least 80X50cm and a 28cm wheel. Hamsters are very active, and this is the absolute minimum. I will not rehome him to anything less.
Or Peanut can come with his large cage and full set up for an extra £60 donation.

Rodent Buying Checklist
Before contacting or visiting the advertiser for this Hamster. Please make sure you have printed and read this checklist fully. Do NOT buy a rodent from the advertiser unless you are happy that they follow all the advice on the list.
- Do your research first
Getting a new rodent is a massive commitment, so make sure you have researched the breed fully and have the time and commitment necessary to care for the rodent. You can read our detailed Information guide about rodents for potential new rodent owners. - Confirm that the advertiser is genuine
You should verify this by arranging to visit the pet at the advertisers home, if they make excuses or try to ask for money or a deposit without seeing the pet, or if the advertiser attempts to deliver the pet or meet you at any other location than their own home, then please do not agree to this. NEVER send money online for any pet. Please read our article on avoiding potential scams.
If you are unsure that the advertiser is genuine, please report them to us. - Is the rodent old enough to leave its mother?
The majority of Rodents must be at least 6 weeks old before they can leave their mothers, with the exception of Guinea Pigs which should be at least 3 weeks old, Degus, Hamsters and Gerbils which should be at least 4 weeks old and Chinchillas, Pygmy Hedgehogs and Sugar Gliders which should be at least 8 weeks old. - Check the Health of the rodent
It can be difficult for the average person to check if a pet is healthy or not, so if you decide to adopt or buy the pet, make sure that the seller agrees that you can return them within 48 hours for a full refund after taking the pet to a Vet of your choice for a health check. The seller should be willing to let you do this. If the pet has already been health checked by their own vet, make sure you get evidence for this in the form of vet records and phone their vet to confirm this.
