First of all, cats consider hamsters and other small rodents as prey. So if you’re considering getting a hamster of gerbil for your child and you also have a pet cat, take a step back and think. You’ll frequently see an outdoor cat carrying a dead mouse in his mouth and setting it outside the door as a “present” for you. My opinion, don’t do it! Even if your cat doesn’t want the hamster for supper, his curiosity will tempt him to place his paws in the cage and probably knock it over injuring or even killing your new pet.   Stay away from those cute little hamsters or gerbils!

Remember, pets are family!
