Need a pet in the house, but you're not allowed to buy a cat or dog? Why not look into a dwarf hamster? They are small and easy to take care of. Unless you get them a huge cage they will not take up much room either.

Breeders normally register their dwarf hamsters into shows, so these will be high quality, and in the best of health. Plus the temperament of these furry little creatures will be good. That's what they are made to be.

Plus if you've bought a dwarf hamster from a breeder you will normally have a much easier time in returning the animal if you have problems. This is not the occurrence that you will find with many pet stores out there.

Breeders usually enter their hamsters into shows, this means they will take special steps in assuring the health of the baby dwarf hamsters. Plus in most cases a breeder will take much better care of the animal than pet stores.

You can also check into a rescue home to see if they have any dwarf hamsters that you can adopt or buy from them. These will most likely be a bit older but still you will be helping out an animal that has no place to stay. These rescue homes will check out the health of the hamster when they come in, so you shouldn't have a problem with that either.

Finally, try to see if you can find another way to buy a hamster instead of from your local pet store, either by helping an abandoned pet or finding a breeder. Either option will normally give you a much healthier hamster to start with. Though with the rescue home again you may get an older hamster, but your child will be happy to have helped out the homeless animal anyway!
