I just bought myself a pair of hamsters a while ago, and while i was trying to put the male hamster in the cage he kept on jumping and jumping causing me to accidentally drop him (but only on the table) And when i tried picking him up again he BIT me! and now my right hand's ring fingers wrapped in a circle shaped band-aid.. so much for cute, cuddly and loving hamsters I wanted. am i one of the worse hamster owners? cry.gif or is it no one's fault coz maybe the hamster got a little afraid as well? I hope I'll be able to get along with them soon..

Who here has a hamster for a pet? If yes, How are you getting along with them? laugh.gif

The hamster dislikes its cage partner, you must give him time to adapt and get used to his cage partner then he'll probably go in the cage without a fight. It seemed like you were forcing him to get into the cage and therefore, he bites you.
