Publisher's Synopsis
This is not your ordinary, run-of-the-mill hamster book. It's not a book about how to select, house and care for your hamster - there are already plenty of good books on that subject. Instead, it's a book about trying to get the most joy possible out of a hamster that you're already doing a great job taking care of, while giving it a rich, full life in the process. What's in it for you? Mostly some great entertainment. The antics of a highly motivated hamster can be quite funny, and are usually much more entertaining than the modern television show. Plus it's a great way to get to know your pet in a way that many people never do. This book was written with Syrian hamsters in mind. It is quite possible that most or all of the suggestions it contains for hamster-related activities are just as applicable to Chinese or Russian Dwarf hamsters (or even European hamsters if anyone keeps them as pets), but they've only been tested with Syrian hamsters - the most common type of hamster kept as a pet.
