Proceed with caution....

Gently gently with the hamster today. As she is young and new to us we are supposed to be getting her used to being handled, little and often.

However after a successful couple of days Sam was a bit cavalier last night - zooming in suddenly with his finger and this happened!

It has made us all a bit nervous.

Especially for thepainterswife here is a picture of our hamster (illegal in NZ).
