Poe - Hamster Small Animal

Shelter: BC SPCA - Surrey Animal ID: 475141 Birthdate: March 08, 2018 - Adult Spayed/Neutered: No Male This little fellow's name is Poe, like the writer, and this suits him so well as he LOVES a great wordsmith -talk to him in a gentle, soft high voice, and with a few loving words and he comes right over to see you. He is sweet, friendly and doesn't mind being handled with appropriate gentle handling methods. He has never bitten in the past, and has mastered a good leap technique to go on adventures! He is so very handsome, with a rich, velvety dark coat is on a healthy diet of Oxbow hamster food. Hamsters are very endearing pets, but so called "pocket pets" do require specific care, handling, and attention to keep them healthy and happy.
