Where Do Pet Store Hamsters Come From?

If you didn’t know, now you know.

…a warning, it’s a heartbreaking and hard to watch.

Please try to adopt first. If you choose to shop, please shop ethical breeders (you can find a list of ethical breeders from your country’s hamster society).

The reality is, ethical breeders will probably never keep up with the demand for hamsters. What we really need is better protection for animals, of all sizes.

But in the meantime, try not to support the breeding mills with your money!
