    I would like everyone to meet...... (2 weeks to wait)

    No name......

    Whisk's empty cage is making me so upset right now, and I knew I wanted another hammy so today I went back to the pet shop I got Whisk and Chino from to have a look.

    Emma (pet shops owners daughter) said they only have 2 females but she had some babies upstairs (she breeds hamsters herself as well as getting some from a breeder in essex)... I am not ready to take another hammy home quite yet and she said the babies are ready in 2 weeks- perfect. So I went to have a look.... and and guess everyone has already worked out I chose one....

    Here he is (sorry the pics arent great- the lighting was not ideal and I had to be quick because we had already chosen and were about to leave):

    (hes the breeders favourite because he always sits like that poking his nose out the bed)
    (lightening bolt markings! Thats what I think they look like anyway)
    (that face is just so cute)
    ('hey who are you?')
    (just sniffing around)
    (Last one...)

    We have thought of a few names we like but any suggestions are helpful.... thanks.... (the names we like so far are: radar, hoover, marble, dazzle, mash, scrabble, dibble, rumble, mumble, sparky, doodle, micro, tag and twiglet)
    I am picking him up in two weeks when he is 7 weeks old.... got him some stuff already....

    OMGosh....he is so cute. Look at that little face. Petrie sounds like a good name. Don't know if you ever saw the movie Land Before Time but I always thought that was a cute name. Said like P-Tree.

    Brody's Mum is right, Whisk would be happy to know that this little guy will be loved and cared for by you.

    Aw, he's precious!!!

    I bet Whisk had a paw in helping you pick him out. He wouldn't want a good hammy home to be vacant!!!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    What an adorable little ham he is!
    After reading the name suggestions Hoover just stuck out. Like a hoover vacuum, hamsters can stuff just about anything in their cheeks. Heh! (Did that make a lick of sense? haha)
    Good luck on deciding on a name, and I can't wait until he comes home and we get to see more of him.
    Congratulations!

    Thanks everyone He really is a sweetie and now I have something to look foward too...

    Oyster- thats why we liked the name Hoover We are kinda going off that name now though as my friend pointed our he would be 'Hoover the hamster'.... get it? She says its like a to do list gone wrong

    I do like Twiglet and it seems to suit him but I will not make my mind up till the day I collect him so any more name suggestions are welcome...

    Hello there, cutie! Since you don't have a name yet, may I call you cutie for now? I agree that Whisk probably had a paw in this selection. Cutie, I hope you will be very happy at your new home!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    When I first looked at the pictures I thought he was sitting in a big bowl of popcorn....how about popcorn for his name?
    Whatever you name him he's real sweet looking.

    He is certainly cute! It's always good to have another little one to take your mind off things.

    Thank you everyone....

    A bit more info:

    His mum is a bit of a physco ham.... She is really cute though (the breeder said she was going to stop breeding hamsters but then she met the litters mum and she had to carry on )

    Their daddy is a big fluff ball and a real gentle sweetheart.....

    My (hopefully) guy is 1 of a litter of 5.... his siblings are sable, golden, one looks like a golden banded sorta thing, and then their is him and one other I cant remember.....(though I think it looked a bit like my (hopefully) newbie)

    Out of them all the breeder says he seems to be the most placid but its hard to tell at this age, she is going to work extra hard with him these next two weeks to get him nice and tame for us

    One a slightly different note we found out Chino's mummy is still alive and well

    Sorry, all that info was a little random but oh well

    What a recious little ham!! I like the name "Marble" for him, because of his big dark glowing eyes!

    Aw, he is such a little darling! I liked the suggestion of Petrie before, and Lut`s suggestion of Marble. I like Hoover, as well.

    He is so adorable! I like the name Dazzle, personally. And Petrie too.
    I have a friend with the last name Hoover, so that's a no go for me. LOL
    If you're thinking of a vacuum, there's always Dyson. We just got one last night!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
