Cage Hamster Rodents for sale in Oxford, Oxfordshire

9 Cage Hamster Rodents for sale in Oxford, Oxfordshire

Hamster, including popular types such as the Syrian hamster and dwarf hamster, originates from arid regions like Syria, Mongolia, and China. Physically, hamsters are small rodents, with the Syrian hamster being the largest, measuring around 6-7 inches, while dwarf hamsters are smaller and more agile. They have distinctive cheek pouches for carrying food and require a spacious cage with deep bedding and a large exercise wheel to maintain health. Hamsters are nocturnal and can be solitary or social depending on the species; Syrian hamsters must live alone, whereas some dwarf species can live in pairs or groups. Their temperament is generally curious but they are fragile and best suited for owners who understand their care needs, including a balanced diet, proper housing, and gentle handling. In the UK, hamsters are popular pets, often searched with terms like "hamsters for sale," "hamster for sale UK," and "dwarf hamster for sale." They make suitable pets for those prepared to provide attentive care but are not ideal for very young children due to their delicate nature. Understanding these characteristics helps ensure a happy and healthy pet hamster experience.

FAQs

How much should a hamster cost?

Hamsters generally cost between £12 and £20 at pet stores, depending on the breed. Syrian hamsters, including Teddy Bear varieties, usually cost around £18 to £20, while dwarf hamsters range from about £16 to £18. Hamsters purchased from private breeders may be more expensive, typically £40 to £60, reflecting better socialisation and breed quality.

Should I get 1 or 2 hamsters?

Whether to get one or two hamsters depends on the type. Syrian hamsters are solitary animals and prefer living alone. Dwarf hamsters can sometimes live in pairs or small compatible groups if provided with a large enough cage (minimum size around 60x60x30 cm for one hamster), but care must be taken to monitor for any fighting, ensuring they are compatible companions.

Can a hamster live 7 years?

No, hamsters typically have a lifespan of around 2 to 3 years. Both Syrian and dwarf hamsters generally live within this range, and it is uncommon for any hamster to live as long as 7 years.
