Name: Giles
Species: Syrian Hamster
Sex: Male
Approx DOB: January 2026
Status: Available for adoption
Giles is a very sweet boy who was surrendered due to his previous human going on holiday…! It was perhaps for the best as Giles is now able to enjoy exploring a suitably sized enclosure and has disovered his favourite thing ever – his wheel!
Giles can be a little shy, though he is ok with calm and confident handling for health checks. He would thrive with an adopter willing to allow him time to settle, and take things at his own pace.
He’s active from around 9pm and spends most of the night running on his wheel. He also loves building a nice cosy nest inside his multichamber hide. He is currently enjoying Getzoo golden hamster food and would like to continue on something similar in his new home.
Minimum housing requirements: 100cmx50cm enclosure with at least 6inches of safe substrate for burrowing, a multichamber hide, 28cm or larger wheel, large sand bath and plenty of enrichment.
Adoption fee: Minimum donation of £30 – this helps towards covering the costs of caring for the animals we rescue & rehome. Includes changeover supply of food, plus some seed sprays/treats.
