Hamsters, belonging to the rodent family, are very common pets for children. However I would suggest you read up a little about purchasing, keeping and feeding a hamster before making the decision to keep one as a pet. It is always best to make an informed decision, and that way you can ensure that your pet hamster will be a healthy and happy pet.
Some skittish pets, like hamsters, have retained a survival instinct to play dead if they become too anxious or frightened by a very loud noise. If your hamster is outside of his cage when frightened, and there is no hiding place in sight, he/she will play dead. It is best to put the hamster back in his cage, where he will feel safe. Leave them for a while to allow them to fully recover. If you find your hamster lying motionless, don‘t be in a big hurry to bury them, they may just be in recovery mode.
