Hamsters are rodents and belong in the subfamily.They spend most of their day underground to avoid being captured by predators.Their scientific name is Cricetinae.
Most hamsters can live up to be 3 years old.Hamsters were living in obscurity until 70 years ago,when a zoologist found a family of them in the Syrian desert.Today they are one of the most famous pets you can have.
Hamsters are mammals and are in the animalia kingdom.Since they are so easy to breed in captivity they are held and used as laboratory animals and are used to do experiments on.So far this year we have had two hamsters and "Noob"one of our hamsters has sadly past away this week.
