Hamsters are solitary animals.
You will need to move slowly when working with your hamster. They are skittish and have poor eyesite. They may bite you if you surprise them. They are extremely quick and they will jump from very high places because they don't have any concept of height. Hamsters are nocturnal so think carefully before placing their cages.
