Pet care in 2023 isn't easy lol. Here's my total collection of hamster food: The pink packages contain flax seed sprays which Etta especially prefers apparently. There's a story behind her having Waitrose monkey nuts too I'm not just a snob π³, although she deserves the best ones! The basic premise behind hamster care when … Continue reading Hamster Food Collection

Happy Hamsters Feedback
Happy Hamsters finally gave me feedback and apologised for the delay! Was weird as they were replying very quickly before but then it was most of 2 days for this final hurdle. Anyway I just need to get some vegetable/flower/herb forage mix from a pet shop, which they love and it helps encourage them to … Continue reading Happy Hamsters Feedback
Hamster Enclosure Complete!
I've finally put it all together! And made a custom platform/ladder combination with wood from the unused shelves which came with the enclosure. It's all fitted together really satisfyingly. The metal thing dangling from the lid is for putting fresh vegetable chunks on, it's a fun way for them to get it :). I'm just … Continue reading Hamster Enclosure Complete!
Hamster Enclosure Painting
I've finally finished preparing my hamster enclosure (painting and varnishing it with pet-safe paints). It's really dragged out painfully over many days (12) due to a combination of having to manage OCD alongsideβ practising ERP to avoid feeding itβ and some trial and error and learning about painting wooden furniture. There were also some modifications … Continue reading Hamster Enclosure Painting
I’m Adopting An Older Hamster
I got an instagram account just so I could follow Happy Hamsters UK. I have to grit my teeth whilst using it though. This brief delve into social media has revealed a far-progressed and sophisticated digital dystopia. Anyway here are some pictures of a hamster named Etta whom I've reserved! I noticed she kept being … Continue reading I’m Adopting An Older Hamster
Hamster Enclosures
If you live in the UK could you please sign this petition to improve small animal enclosure standards, and try to share with 1 or 2 people? That's all that's required on average for exponential growth! Bacteria know it. I'm aware of the common skepticism around petitions! My view is that they do no harm … Continue reading Hamster Enclosures
Hamster Preparations
I've made so much progress in sorting through my possessions and either selling them on eBay, giving them away through Freecycle or throwing them away if they weren't useable. All of this clutter has a tangible affect on my thinking, which I've always known but the pull of OCD was stronger. Overcoming OCD to be … Continue reading Hamster Preparations
We Have No Healthcare
I just don't understand how we're not protesting on a large scale here at the moment. Even for the usually-apathetic UK population this is surprising. I think a lot of people buy into the talk of protest having been made illegal last year, and just going along with that as something that's happened now, another … Continue reading We Have No Healthcare

Emotional Support Amster
I can't hold back any longer, I'm committed to getting an emotional support hamster! I've been more functional in the last week and finally after 6 months of living here I've been able to start organising and tidying things properly, selling some things I don't need on ebay and throwing away or donating other things. … Continue reading Emotional Support Amster
