Question
Me and my teddy bear hamster have a good bond, she has not bitten me, very taime but i was wondering if i could make her do more? such as how i would do tricks with her?

Answer
Hi, I'm Hannah. I found your question in the question pool, and I should be able to answer it.
Hamsters are not very good at tricks, I'm sorry to say. However, they can be trained to climb little ladders with food on the top. Also, if you are looking for something to do with him, most of the Petco stores are having a Hamster Ball Derby on September 8th.
