@@Emma-fz5cd bc his previous owners probably didn’t care about Waddles Also did Victoria Raechel name him “Waddles” or did his previous owners name him that
@Janiahliz Serrano Sorry..But 4 inch wheels are unsuitable for any hamster because it might break their back! ()Sorry If I confused you,maybe you ment the wheel tori gave waddles! ()
How did I miss this video?! 😫 Congratulations!!! He's so heckin cute and I can't believe you finally got one after all these years, I'm so happy for you! 🥳🥳 I am literally on my way to kidnap him though so watch out 😂
His huge black eyes are the cutest, my heart is melting. As a loving mom of rat boys, I can relate to the balls thing. A lot. I've been asked if my rats have tumors down there. 😂
@@hallejosephine reasoning? Maybe saying I THOUGHT I created that word meant I literally created that word in your mind. I didn't know that word actually existed and I never confirmed that I created that word. I genuinely thought that word didn't exist
Aww, I love him! I got my Chinese boy, Basil, over 2 years ago and he’s still going strong! He’s also still super shy but I think that’s just a Chinese hammy thing. He takes treats from me (he waits for one every evening 🥰) and lets me pet him a little bit but otherwise he’s quite content doing his own thing. He’s adorable though, they have such nice placid personalities (I’ve owned 3 over the years). I’m sure Waddles will be very happy in his new home!
@@abdelmc1373 she told me something about not saying god or lord without capitalizing it and i didn’t even say anything about that. i’m also agnostic btw. i also have no idea who that is
I've never actually seen a Chinese Hamster before, and looking closely now my goodness he looks different to your standard Syrian! He's such a long boi! And.. Those balls. Lmao.
Even a robo should have at the very least 6.5 inches or slightly smaller if it was a young/small one like mine so that was unfortunate how much curling would’ve been done
@@Yeewen88 yes I know, the purpose of this comment was not to say the wheel size was too big, i was not saying that and am entirely aware on wheel sizes. The purpose was to mention how adorable waddles is and how cute he looks when he is on the wheel. I am glad we can get common ground on that.
@@Yeewen88 ok thanks, sorry i judged you like that, I feel sorry that wabbles had to go in that minuscule wheel that was not in any way the right size! When will people learn hamster care?
At first I was like "Can waddles move the wheel?" he looks so tiny compared to it but im glad he is happy and able to run on it and that you gave him a better home
Crazily enough, when my mum started pet boarding 3 years ago, the first hamster we looked after was a Chinese hamster 😅 I was super surprised because I haden’t seen them for sale or adoption anywhere - the owners said they had to look high and low to find one. Waddles is very cute & lucky he got such a caring owner!
Waddles is so cute! I love his longer body, and he has a set to “ walk like a man … or hammy.” He is a very lucky hammy to have you, and you are quite blessed to have him.❤️
Hey Victoria! Just wanted to say thanks for helping me give my hammie a good life with your amazing videos! Sadly she passed away yesterday, July 27th. It was sudden and she showed no signs of sickness. Her name was Evee and she was a Campbells Dwarf. Anyways, Waddles is super cuuutteee! 😊
I have a Chinese hammy, his name is Atlas since it looks like he has a star in his head🐹 He was shy at first but now he runs out whenever he hears me coming.😂
Victoria! I love waddles its the cutest name and he’s sooooo cute! You inspired me so much, because i just got a hamm a couple months ago and got a critter trail level 2 habitat and then upgraded to a 40 gallon aquarium and now my hamster is so happy! Thank you for your inspiration!
Yes, I had a feeling you would get one! I’ve had the same struggle, I have never seen a Chinese hamster in real life! The nearest ones I’ve seen are about 6hrs away!!! So I’m not able to get one yet 😭😭 hopefully I will get one some day. Also Waddles is the CUTEST name, he is so lovely. :) And congrats for 500k subs!
i love how about 2 1/2 minutes in the video, you show Waddles past wheel. I felt like i was in a horror movie, bc when you showed the wheel, i was like *GASP* and jerked backwards with my hands on my mouth-the wheel was so small! My mom looked at me so strangely; she was like "what happened?!" and i said, "look at the SIZE of THAT WHEEL!!" and she was like, "oh." it was so funny :) :) :)
Victoria, I just wanted to say thank you. when I got my hamster I didn’t know a lot. I always watched you, you helped me take care of him. Today I my hamster, teddy passed away in his sleep. He lived a very long life, and it’s cause of you. Thank you.
ahhhh! he is the absolute cutest! (no favoritism here 😂 lenny is also the absolute cutest lol) btw congrats on 500k!! 🥳 I've been with you since 200k and your channel has helped me soo much with learning about hamster care and tons more 💕
He’s soo cute!!!! I’ve had a Chinese dwarf hamster for a while now and I didn’t know they were so rare! My hamster’s name is Coco and she looks exactly like that hamster, except she’s a girl!
I looked at him closely and literaly,he is so long yet cute! But when I noticed his eyes,he got soooo much cuter! Does not beat my 2 year old,female,golden syrian hamster though! She is called Issabella yet I call her Iza.
Omg yes finally!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad you found one!! I still have lucky :) he's about 3 years old now :)) I moved him to a ten gallon because he was not getting around aswell in his about 27-30 gallon bin- i had to get rid of the bin but it was between those gallons! :) they can be very fast! But- mine is not fast lol- love that set up woah- i feed him about once every 1-2 weeks- with about 3 teaspoons- so he gets quite a lot- with food- o and yes- i give him about 20 inches of aspen bedding and one side has about 4 inches of ktee - it's the white soft bedding I can't remember the name ah- I'm so dumb- i love waddles woah- great and informative video! Edit: my sister gives him treats a lot- so don't worry he gets lots of food!!
I'm so happy you were finally able to get a Chinese hamster! I rescued my girl Emmy (short for Emerald) when she was 8 months as well. She loves to wrap her tiny tail around my finger when I hold her, I hope Waddles will do the same for you once you've bonded!
I had a Chinese hamster as my first hamster I still miss him everyday and he had great care so I started my care pretty well :) I'm hoping to get another one if I find one to adopt cause there so cute and I miss having one but im also interested in the othere species of hams So I found an ad and it's a lil robo and I'm gonna get him soon i hope my most recent ham just passed of cancer he was an adopted syrian Named Maximus I loved him lots and he got losts of upgraded homes the encloser I currently have it's huge, it's a 850sq inch cage 2 story's each story is 850 so I'm gonna adopt 2 hams from homes that aren't in the best care :) I love ur channel and waddels and Lenny are v cute ♡!
Aww that hammie is SO adorable!!! Definetely in good care, i am happy for the hamster that they can enjoy an amazing life, because you’re amazing at caring for hamsters! You’ve helped me alot with my hamsters and i am so thankful for you. Lots of love 💕💕
Aww he’s so cute I have a Chinese dwarf hamster hamster she looks just like him 😍 Any tips on what to feed them? Or what’s the best food brand for them because I know they are prone to diabetes so I’m still looking for a good food brand that USA has so if you know any please let me know
I feed my Chinese hamster a 50/50 mix of Mazuri and Sunburst Higgins. I also believe you can just mix both bags together (45/55). Robin's Gourmet Food on Etsy also sells great species specific food if you want to check it out. :)
@@chipthehamster4585 i’ve had a couple chinese hamsters and they were on the same diet. they lived a long time and were very healthy so i would keep the same diet
@@chipthehamster4585 I also feed my hamster the sunburst with the Mazuri too! But you know how they can’t have sugar and i notice there’s carrot pieces in it and other stuff so normally i avoid that but you give it to your hamster is it sugar free? What about other stuff in it to I never knew if sunburst is sugar free for dwarf’s
waddles is such a cutie pie! it's definitely a bit harder taking care of chinese hamsters as there isn't as much information compared to syrians and such. can't wait for this journey welcome waddles!
We just got our kids a Chinese hamster and I’m already regretting the critter trail. I’ll have to upgrade to a larger enclosure because now I feel super guilty about the lack of space. Looking forward to more videos of waddles.
We recently picked up a Chinese dwarf hamster - white. Totally keep reminding myself he's NOT a mouse! 🐭 My daughter and I have been watching your videos. Very helpful.TY 🙏
I just want to say thank you so much for helping me and my hamster Teddy. You have taught me everything I know about hamsters, except that they are awesome!
I just want to say thank you very much Victoria! I am a young adult that has gotten into hamster care about 4 months ago. Im deep in thw community now and I love proper care! Youve taught me a lot, and I honestly had a rough start since I only went off what the petsmart people taught me. Little did I know they don't know jack! Now i have a nice linnmon with plenty of enrichment for my baby Charlene. Deep bedding and a nice 11 inch wheel. Ive even inspired my girlfriend to get a hamster! I made her a bincage and taught her how to do it right. Thanks again!
Congratulations on 500 subs! I’ve been here since you were about 13 crazy! Waddles is the absolute most adorable thing I’ve seen in the longest time. I’m so glad you got to visit your dream of having a Chinese dwarf hamster. You keep killing it girl! Lots of love😘
@@EnglishBulldogMama Well Sue I’m in the hospital again my autoimmune disease has acted up and they think I have something called gastroparesis other than that my son is doing very well I miss the days we used to chat. How are you doing?
@@mikeyfinger8026 oh no! Hope you can get back home quickly! DM me on Instagram. Surviving without my kid! Fortunately she comes to visit regularly!! Still working, and at home ATM, so alls good.
Waddles is absolutely gorgeous!! I love him so so much oh my goshh 🥺I'm shocked that you actually own one now, you've never really spoken about owning them but look at you now!! 😆
Ah!! This must be amazing for you, you get 500k subs then you get your first Chinese hamster. Waddles is so cute he reminds me of my winter White russian Dwarf!! I'm sure waddles will have a great life with you and enjoy it ever so much :)
Omg I AM SO HAPPY I FOUND YOU! I use to have my 2 robos in the same cage, it was a wire cage the size of a 5-10 gallon tank. Then I got them separated because they were not good together, also my sister got one and I got the other, named her Luna and now I am getting a 40 gallon tank for her and WAY BETTER sand than dust baths. And now she always climbs in my hands🥰
