It has been a month!

Its 13 April today! Which means that Udon has been a month with us liao. She is going to be 2 months old in 3 days time.

Udon was very tiny when she 1st came to our home. There was still a lot of space for her in the food bowl.


Now Udon has grown a lot bigger! There is not much space for her to move around inside the food bowl.

Udon is not a greedy hamster and seldom takaway food.She will normally go to her food bowl to have her meal.

However, she is a active and playful hamster. She would normally wake up slightly after our dinner time, have her own food, drink some water, go to toilet to pee and lastly groom herself. After these routine stuff, she would standby near the cage door to wait for me to let her out to play. I would either leave her in the hamster ball or freely roam if I'm in the study. There are occasional breaks for her whereby I bring her back to her cage and let her have some food, water and private business. Udon is a well behave hamster and does not pee and poo when she is outside. She will standby at the door again once she is done.

Udon will start biting the cage if she gets impatient and I'm not around to open the door. Even the her playtime has ended, she will bite for very long until she realise that thats all for today.

I will try my very best to give Udon a very happy life.

Shopping at Serangoon North again

Since my hubby and my last 1st exploration at Serangoon North 2 weeks ago, we went down today again.

Main objective: To buy a bigger hamster running ball for Udon.


Side objective: To search for bath sand recommended by SHC forum members.


Udon currently uses a small hamster ball for dwarf hamsters. I borrowed it from my bro who owns 2 lovely campbells. This ball was ok to use when Udon was small. As Udon is so much bigger now, it is due for an upgrade of the ball.


Went to Pet Safari @ Vivo yesterday to look at the ball for Syrian but did not buy in the end because it was too expensive! Compared a few pricing of hamster balls from different shop and decided to buy from Pets Mart. This ball is 17 cm in diameter and shop owners recommended it for syrians.


Although, currently using Marukan sand, I want to racky around the bath sand available for hammys. I could only find Slui Chinchilla and Que Feng sand which were recommended by forum members. I bought a big pack of Que Feng sand in the end since I could see their sand is available anyway.

New hamster mix

I will be 1 month in 2 days time since brought Udon home. I have been feeding Udon Marukan orange pack (MR-116) hamster mix. Udon has no problem with the current mix.

I visited the Pet Safari in Vivocity today and saw this Vitakraft Emotion Beauty hamster mix. It has omega 6 beauty complex and helps to shiny fur, good health and teeth for hamster. It sound like good food to make hammies beautiful. Although it was expensive to buy in Pet Safari, I decided to buy a pack to let Udon try.

Planning to mix it with Udon's current Marukan food. Hope that Udon likes it!

The accidental escapist

As usual, I will let Udon out to play. Either freely in my study (where there are on hiding area or inside a hamster ball running around my house.

I decided to let it run inside the ball yesterday. The ball knocking onto furniture and wall can be heard whenever Udon ran in the ball.

However I couldn't heard it banging a while, so I went to take a look. The ball was left with the cover opened!!!!

Udon had came out of the ball!!!! I looked around the kitchen and I could not find it. Asked my hubby to help and he found it immidiately! Udon was resting under our sofa!!!

We were very lucky to find Udon fast. The cover of the ball must have been loosen by the knockings. I was very worried when I couldn't see Udon in the ball. Next time I have to be more alert when Udon runs in the ball.

Running around computer desk

Today, I let Udon run around our messy computer desk. Had to be extra careful not to let it go to the cables, otherwise I would get fried Udon!
