yea, at first when i had my hamster i was soo scared to hold her but then my friend tried it for me. It was soo cool. When a hamster goes into a new home you have to get her used to the enviroment. So you should definetely hold him =]

hamsters are playful (sometimes) so love them and dont be afriad of them.

It's best to give your hamster a few days to adjust to its new environment before attempting to pick him up. This will allow him to become familiar with his surroundings and reduce stress. When you do start handling him, do so gently and patiently to build trust.

How do you get a hamster to run on the wheel?

If you just got a new hamster it is hard to get it to run on its wheel. What I did was pick it up, put it on its wheel and gently turn it slowly so that they know what it is there for. Your hamster will only run on the wheel once it is comfortable with its environment. You can also buy a hamster ball and let it run around a room in it.
