Hamsters are incredibly adorable. Though some people rather admire them from afar, they are typically harmless. Hamsters are quite friendly and love to interact with their surroundings, making them great pets.
But do keep in mind to do your research if you’re thinking about taking one of these cuties home with you. They are mainly active in the evening so be mindful of their sleep schedule. You don’t want to wake them because they can bite when frightened.
But don’t let that deter you from giving them a chance if you really want one.
Just look at their little faces!
1) Oh so comfy
This little guy is enjoying his soft bed. Can we blame him? It does look comfy. Just look at how happy he is!
2) Hiding places
This is picture-perfect! How adorable is he?! Clearly, somebody enjoys the game of hide-go-seek. We don’t deserve his little paws!
3) Grab a blankie
Looks like this blanket is taken! Who knew that hamsters played tug-of-war like dogs? Maybe he was just chilly and needed a blanket!
4) Peek-a-boo
Is this where the party is? That vibrant purple makes it look like a party cage! Is that a bottle in the background? Of course not…
5) Chubs
Eating sure is fun. This little hamster might agree. She’s just so chubby. She makes you want to reach through the screen and scoop her up!
6) Too big for your britches
Nom, nom, nom. This little hamster really loves to eat! Bananas are good so we see the appeal. It’s just so amazing to see something so small eating an item bigger than them!
7) Teal makes everything better
That teal blanket looks so comfortable! It also looks so pretty. This guy is probably getting the best sleep of his life.
8) Teacher’s pet
Hamsters like to keep up with their studies also! At least this one does. The subject looks pretty complex!
9) It’s natural
Did someone just go for a swim? It sure looks like it. Or maybe this hamster’s hair always looks this cool.
10) Mini forest
This hamster has a nice setup! Just look at all that greenery! He also has some rocks he can skip on.
11) Leave the wrapper
Oh you know, just held up in my room, pigging out on some food. Living the life is what this hamster knows best. I wonder what he’s eating.
12) Swing life away
How do they do it? He knows exactly how to hold onto those ropes! This swing is definitely his happy place.
13) On alert
Did somebody say something? This hamster looks like he’s ready to investigate a disturbance. Perhaps, he’s Stuart Little’s distant cousin?
14) Hobbies
Who knew that hamsters tended to their own gardens? Well, at least a plant. But hey, it’s a start!
15) On the loose
“They’ll never catch me!” They might not! There are just so many knick-knacks to hide behind.
16) Don’t squish me!
Some of us have some odd places that we like to sleep. Apparently, so do some hamsters. This hamster looks like he’s in heaven under there!
17) Oh, hey
Did this owner snap a photo of their hamster as she was washing her face? It looks like this hamster is used to their owner taking photos. But she does looks adorably caught off guard.
18) Just a smootch
This hamster has a little crush! That stuffed bear is a little cutie though! I can see this working out.
19) Put me down!
This hamster seems to have had his “feathers ruffled.” Perhaps he escaped from his cage and got caught? It looks like he wants to escape from this human grip too.
20) Mid-snack
There’s something so calming about watching a hamster eat. Those little cheeks go a mile a minute. Doesn’t it make you want to take one home?
21) “A little help here!”
It’s unclear how this little hamster got in there. But what is clear is that he is desperately trying to get out! Don’t just stand there taking photos, human!
22) Travel-size
This little one can travel in your palm or pocket! This newborn is the cutest little thing! His head is just so big for that little body. Adorable!
23) Somewhere over the rainbow
What an outdoor-sy set of digs this hamster has! He has his own set of logs and a personalized rainbow. What more can you ask for?
24) Spotted!
Hamsters are just so darn curious. They love to roam around their surroundings. I wonder where she was off to?
25) New look
Did somebody just get a hair cut and a wash? Lookin’ good! He might not like it now but he just might love it later.
26) “Don’t mind me!”
What are you up to over there? Be careful along the edge. Whatever you do, don’t jump!
27) Shy guy
Meet Flopsy! Isn’t he just the cutest? He’s a shy one. But it looks like he’s found a new hiding spot.
28) Good morning
Waking up can be tough sometimes. Humans aren’t the only ones who have to go through the process. She looks like she could use another nap!
29) Up close and personal
Imagine waking up and seeing this face. It’s a chance you take when you have a hamster. They are quite curious. This one really seems interested in cameras.
30) Best Buds
Look at these two playmates! They’re very fond of each other. Even hamsters need to express their love for each other every once in a while.
31) Blending in
This hamster blends right in with her background. I bet she loves to play hide-go-seek. She probably wins everytime.
32) Squeeze!
Okay, so you tried. At least he has somewhere dark to lay his head. That’s all hamsters really want sometimes – personal space!
33) Food trails
Looking for your runaway hamster? Easy, just look for the food trail! If there isn’t one, make one. They will likely return!
34) Something new
Cauliflower is a healthy vegetable. This hamster wants to make sure it’s up to standards before taking a bite. Trust us, they’re delicious!
35) Newborn
Another newborn! They’re just so precious and delicate. Aww, if this doesn’t make you want a hamster, nothing will!
36) In safe hands
This hamster looks like she’s enjoying her time in human hands. And this human knows exactly how to hold her. It’s a match made in heaven.
37) Let me out!
Let this little guy out! It looks like he wants to run around the room freely. Maybe he smells something that he just can’t wait to get his paws on.
38) Three amigos
Three’s a crowd alright! It looks like all three want some of the spotlight. Don’t worry, the camera captured some… interesting angles of you all.
39) Do you even wash, bro?
It’s important to maintain personal hygiene!
“But hey, a little privacy please? I’m washin’ over here!”
40) The master plan
This guy is up to something! But what? Only time will tell. Don’t worry, it’s probably just food-related.
41) Don’t mind if I do
Who doesn’t like a good snack? This cutie sure does! Just look at his small little paw on the human’s thumb! What a size difference!
42) Rest easy
There’s nothing like that hamster/owner bonding time. This is one lucky duo to have each other to lean on after a long day. This little one won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.
43) The best place on earth
This is this little hamster’s favorite resting spot. The warmth of a human’s hand is pretty unmatched. Get all the rest you need little one!
44) Creativity rises
This hamster looks like he has his own little elevator. But it’s just a bowl! It looks like he’s never going to be bored with this creative imagination.
45) Mine!
Who doesn’t love a good walnut? They’re so good even hamsters love them. This one isn’t going to let go of hers!
46) Little human
This hamster is lounging like a little human! Apparently, he’s been watching their ways. Live it up, hammie!
47) Bad hair day
Did someone wake this guy up? It looks like it. He’s just so confused and doesn’t seem to know where he is. It must have been a great nap!
48) You must get this all the time…
Sorry for the picture! We just thought you might have been Stuart Little. Maybe not but have you thought about going into acting? I can see it now, Stuart Little – The Hamster.
49) Streetwise
This hamster looks like he’s in a city dwelling. Smack dab in the middle of hard knocks. This hamster is street-smart.
50) “I think my butt’s getting big!”
Maybe it is! I wonder if hamsters ever check themselves out in the mirror? This hamster just might be happy with their results.
51) Booksmart
Talk about having one’s nose stuck in a book! NyuNyu is no exception. Who doesn’t love a yummy snack paired with a good read?
52) Homemade jungle gyms
Hamsters are known to spend time out and about in their environment. This hamster is no different. Maybe he just got a new cage and is out exploring.
53) Surrounded by food
Eating food that is roughly the same size as you? Don’t mind if I do! She’s truly living the dream surrounded by all of that food.
54) Private gym
Look at that workout space. It’s like a mini gym. That red item is like the punching bag. But I’m sure it’s jsut something she chews on.
55) Out and about
What is this hamster up to? The owner says that this little guy was getting ready to explore his new environment. Perfect! It’s what every hamster wants.
56) “I’m almost there!”
Looks like he’s trying to squeeze out this person’s hand. How cute! You’re almost there!
57) Hole in the floor
Hamsters, hamsters everywhere! It never hurts to have a cubbyhole you can climb into when things get rough. It’s like a hamster’s “man-cave!”
58) The hamster calls the shots
Some people are so close to their hamsters, they allow them on the furniture. It’s not for everybody though. I just hope that fruit didn’t leave a stain on that nice pillow…
59) A family that swings together
It’s always better swinging with friends! Just look at how they’re kneeling together! And that setting? It’s the perfect decor! How are some hamster spaces nicer than human ones?
60) Not that type of party
No, it isn’t a hamster chugging out of a mini keg! Though, that would be a sight to see. In the meantime, let’s just enjoy watching hamsters drinking out of their regular water bottles.
61) Back away slowly
Don’t you dare touch her cookie! It does look tasty so we totally understand. You see that paw? She clearly has dibs on it.
62) Hamster wheel
Now, it wouldn’t be much of a hamster’s list without hamster’s wheel! This is a must-see video. She sure knows how to run on this thing!
63) Eat your greens
Hami the Hamster doesn’t seem to have a problem with that. He loves greens! If only everyone else did too.
64) No cameras please!
Sometimes hamsters just need their space. We can’t blame them. They’re like children to humans. We can’t seem to stop taking photos of them in their spaces. Let’s just let them relax for a bit.
65) Welcome home
It looks like Seymore hasn’t adjusted to the new space yet. But give it time. There’s so much to do here.
66) Do not disturb
Ahh, there’s nothing like resting in a bed of soft wood shavings to end the day. Leonard knows what that’s like. You can see him here enjoying the good life.
67) All to myself
This hamster’s cage is bigger than most. The best part is, it’s all his! Enjoy your new home!
68) Hello!
“I’m ready for my close-up!” Hamsters have a way of staying camera-ready. Why can’t we be as good?!
69) The cheeks
There they are! Those infamous hamster cheeks! Rosella deserves a modeling contract. Just look at her!
70) Breaking free
It doesn’t hurt to break out once in awhile. What hamster doesn’t want to stretch their legs and roam free? In the meantime, looking out of the cage will have to do for now.
71) Leftovers
I wonder what Leonard just ate! Whatever it was, it left some residue behind on his paws. Lucky guy.
72) Glamping trip!
Don’t mind if I do. We can’t let our hamsters run freely in the wild. But we can bring a part of the wild to them! Tents are an amazing place to sleep.
73) Red eyes
Not those sort of red eyes! Just the red eyes from a bright camera flash. Looks like hamsters aren’t immune to the red-eye effect either.
74) Snuggly
To say that I’m not the least bit jealous of this hamster would be untruthful. He looks like he doesn’t want to be bothered and I don’t blame him! Can he make some room for me?
75) Rest easy
Nighty-night! How amazing to see new life in somebody’s hands! It must be exciting to see this little one grow up right in front of you! Aww!
