Golden Rule of Chinese Hamster Adoption

Guinea pigs are highly social creatures! They thrive in pairs or small groups. Consider adopting two bonded chinese hamsters together - they'll be happier, healthier, and more entertaining to watch. A lonely chinese hamster can become depressed and develop behavioral issues. If adopting a single pig, ensure you have plenty of time for daily interaction and consider finding them a compatible friend soon.
