Say hello to Marty, one of my Roborovski dwarf hamsters. He’s looking for the sunflower seed on my five year old Little Man’s hand….you can see how titchy he is!
My other Roborovski is Doc (yes, I’m a Back to the Future fan!) but he’s so fast I couldn’t get a decent photo of him. Perhaps I should play around with my camera settings but to be honest I don’t think I have to skill to catch him.
Both my little babies love to crawl over your hand but we daren’t pick them up because they are really fast and so tiny, if we lost one we’d have a job trying to find him again. So we have to settle with them running over our hands, often at the speed of lightning. Marty will let you stroke him but to be honest, at the size of your finger there is not much to stroke!
The used to be caged together, but Doc was very violent to Marty and we had to separate them. Poor Marty was in a terrible state, when we moved him, I wasn’t sure if he was going to live, but he did and he’s fine now, all wounds cleared up. He’s still the most friendly one and Doc, will nip you whenever he gets the chance.
They are nocturnal and often don’t wake up until after I’ve gone to bed, but they are always awake first thing in the morning and ready to play.
So what do you think of my little baby? I’d love to hear about your pets.
I love Marty!, I have a Roborovski dwarf hamster called Rosey Posey. She was so shy to start with but is getting braver now. She is my 5th dwarf hamster I've had one hybrid pet shop "Winter White" Two Pure Winter Whites from a National Hamster Council breeder, & one Pure Campbell Dwarf Hamster also from a NHC breeder, I don't think I will ever be without one now 🙂
Marty says hello to Rosey Posey x I've not had dwarf hamsters before, I still marvel at how small they are.
How cute, my girls would love a pet
Thank you for linking up
You should get them one then Darren 😉
Aww! How adorable! My girls have been asking for a hamster. I said we'll see.
As much as I love my dwarfs, I think Syrian hamsters make much better pets for kids. I love mine when I was little, even cleaned them out myself!
How sweet, I used to have a few of these when I was little. I loved having hamsters, didn't love cleaning them out so much though!

You definitely need two to clean these out, so so fast, I'm scared they will get away, someone has to watch them constantly.
Hello Marty, what an adorable pet you are
Marty says hello back x
I have to say I am not a huge fan of hamsters but Marty does look quite cute. I am a dog and cat person … oh and pigs. We have pigs 🙂 #MySundayPhoto
I'd love a pig, if it was feasible, I'd need a farm first 🙂
You'd need 2 as well as they need company! I am planning a piglet update on #AnimalTales this coming week.
First of all, cool names! He looks so cute and tiny! #mysundayphoto
He's lovely! We've got a Chinese dwarf. #animaltales
