The Pearl Syrian Hamster is a relatively easy-to-raise pet, but some details about its care need to be paid attention to.
The Pearl Syrian Hamster is small in size and has a gentle temperament. It usually doesn't bite people, so it's suitable to be kept as a pet. Its main food is the special food for hamsters or grains. Although some snacks like melon seeds and peanuts can be fed to it, the amount should not be too much to avoid affecting its health.
In terms of the living environment, the Pearl Syrian Hamster needs a suitable cage equipped with drinking water, its exclusive food, wood shavings and an exercise wheel, etc. Keeping the cage clean is very important. Clean the cage regularly to prevent bacterial infections. Besides, the Pearl Syrian Hamster is a nocturnal animal and is usually active at night or during dawn and dusk. Therefore, strong light should be avoided in its activity area.
When it comes to training, the Pearl Syrian Hamster can build a relationship of trust and dependence through interacting with its owner from a young age. Although it won't follow commands completely like a dog does, it can be made to have a good impression of its owner through encouragement and rewards.
