Hamsters Are The Best Pets

Introduction

Hamsters are the best pets. They’re cute, they’re fun to watch, and they don’t require much upkeep. Hamsters have been domesticated since the 1700s and have been kept as pets since at least the 19th century. The only thing you have to worry about is getting a good hamster cage for them so they don’t chew their way out!

They are cute!

Many people do not know this, but hamsters are the most adorable creatures in all of nature. They have big eyes, they’re small and furry, and they can make you laugh with their antics. If you’ve never had a pet before, there’s no better place to start than with a hamster!

You can train them to do tricks.

You can train your hamster to do tricks. They are very intelligent and easy to train, making them an ideal pet for anyone who wants to have a more interactive experience with their pet. However, training hamsters is not without its challenges—you need to find the right motivational tool for your hamster and make sure they understand what you want them to do before they’ll obey.

First, let’s talk about how you can use food rewards when training a hamster: You need to give them something positive every time they perform a desired behavior (like running in circles or going through a homemade tunnel). This provides incentive for the next time that behavior occurs because it will bring back good feelings from earlier in the process. It might be best if you set up some sort of reward system so that each time a new trick is taught, there’s an immediate reward waiting at the end of it! This way it won’t take too long before your furry friend figures out what “good boy!!” really means 😉

Next one: praise! Praise works similarly as food treats when teaching new tricks – however instead of rewarding with delicious morsels every time they get something right, this type would benefit greatly from having people say things like ‘Good job!’ or ‘Yay!’ loudly enough so everyone around knows how proud we are! When possible try giving both methods simultaneously – just make sure whatever option chosen here doesn’t interfere with other components like clicker training.”

They are small so they take up less space than other pets.

One of the best things about hamsters is that they are small. This means that they don’t need a lot of space to live in and that you can care for them without having too many responsibilities. Most people would never consider getting a large pet like a horse or dog because it takes up so much space in their homes and requires a lot of time and energy, but these aren’t problems for hamsters!

They’re small enough to live in an apartment (or even dorm room) with you, so you won’t have to worry about finding ways to exercise them outside your home when there isn’t enough space indoors. They’ll also eat less food than other animals do, which helps save money on groceries!

Hamster owners know all too well how easy it is for our little friends to get stressed out from being trapped inside their cages all day long – luckily for us though this isn’t an issue since hamsters only need around 10 minutes per day outside their cages anyway!

Their cages are reasonably cheap.

While hamsters are pretty low-maintenance pets, you will need to buy a cage for them. And the good news is that the cheapest cages are usually best for your hamster.

You want to make sure that whatever cage you get is big enough to allow your pet some freedom of movement. If they’re stuck in a small space all day long with no room to move around, they may become depressed or even sick due to lack of exercise and mental stimulation. So make sure that whatever cage you choose has plenty of space inside and enough toys/activities so they can be happy while they live there.

Some people might think that having one large cage instead of many smaller ones would be cheaper overall—but this isn’t true! Hamsters need lots of attention from their human parents if they’re going to be happy; if there’s only one hamster family member around at any given time (and therefore only one set-up), it might get boring for all involved over time because there’s just not enough interaction happening between them each day (which means less fun). On top of this, when multiple sets-up exist within a single household: bugs get spread around more easily; diseases such as salmonella could travel through food bowls shared by different sets; etc., which results in being safer overall since individual families tend not share germs as much once separated into different cages instead.”

You can buy a lot of cool accessories for them.

Hamster accessories can be purchased at pet stores, or you can buy them online.

You can buy toys to keep your hamster entertained. Some of these toys are made specifically for hamsters and others are simply toys that were designed for other pets but will work well with a hamster as well. Hamsters like tunnels and balls, but there are also things like food dishes, water bottles and houses for them to play in or sleep in.
If you want your little friend to get some exercise there are many different types of wheels available for sale. There’s the standard circular wheel that attaches directly onto the cage flooring or baseboard; there’s also an exercise ball with a running surface inside; or if you’re feeling particularly ambitious there’s even a funky-looking “hamster ball” (which looks more like an old-fashioned TV set than anything else).
