The information contained in the book is outdated and could be hazardous to your hamster. "White shaving" aka pine shavings are a no-no due to potential respiratory problems. The wire wheel, is also a no-no. Every year, many hamsters are seriously injured by wire wheels. There are better, much more up to date books that give safer information than this book!

I thought this book was great! It gave me all the information I needed.When I was reading it,I kept on saying "Wow!to myself.I recomend this book to all hamster lovers.

...from any of this author's books...Ms. Barrie was just the publisher's secretary...the publisher is Herb Axelrod and under cross-examination during litigation against him Ms. Barrie said whenever Axelrod assigned her to do a book she just went to the library for references and then spent a week writing each one...Axelrod ultimately was sentenced to 18 months in prison for tax evasion and Ms. Barrie is now working as a dental hygienist...Axelrod carries some weight among fish fans but I'd be cautious about taking advice from any of Ms. Barrie's books.

When I read this book,I found it completely helpful.My friend,Michael,is also a hamster owner. He found it helpful,too.I loved it!

this is a must buy book.It tells you all about breeding,sexing,and most important how to make your hamster a happy hamster.
