Because today I was this close:

to getting an Imac Fantasy... and you know what that would have meant!!

And its their fault I've decided

Who me, how can you accuse me of encouraging you to get one of these

admittedly lovely big cages. And obviously if you got one of those lovely big cages then I wouldn't encourage you to get one of these

because that would be irresponsible. Anybody would think I was showing you images of those things in order to subconsiously encourage you to go out and get a cute adorable little brother or sister for poor lonely little Sausage. But I would never do that, Srhdufe is just the sort who would though so you need to watch out for her.

Lol no you would never encourage me to do anything like that, you didn't encourage someone to take some gerbils earlier - you would never do that!

Not that I'm going to get any... but what dwarf hammies are best kept in pairs? But I'm not getting any. I'm definitely not looking up rescue centers near me at the moment...

Obviously I would never encourage anyone to get any hamsters but as your just asking out of curiosity I will tell you. I was told that female Campbells are your best bet, but as with all dwarfs you need a spare cage just in case they start to hate each other, however an imac would not be the best cage for more than one dwarf (yes I know I have my 3 in an imac but I have two spare Cambridges waiting in the wings), apparently cages with multi levels and tubes can create areas where the indivdual animal can become territorial which can cause fights. I was told by a breeder that Campbells females hardly ever fight but I am waiting now for hundreds of posts about Campbells attacking each other. What rescue centres are you not looking at right now then

As I keep saying, its obviously Srhdufe who is the temptress here and not innocent old me.

Oh I didn't know that about the levels, I have looked at the local animal rescue place which has dogs and cats but apparently has some small animals as well. I have also looked at the RSPCA site which wasn't much help, and preloved.

I have spare cages sort of... as Sausage doesn't really NEED 2 cages as well as his massive bin cage so I could always use the Rotastak as temporary housing if they fight

Touch wood my three seem to really like each others comany and they are in an imac, be sure to put in enough toys beds etc so they have one each and are not likely to fight over who gets the wheel or whatever.

Yes I don't want fights!! I really want to email the animal center now.... sooo tempting!! But what would my mother say

Oh well at least I have until Christmas to think up an excuse

Hmmm I feel that poor Sandra is going to get blamed for these hamsters.
