How do i make my dwarf hamster have fun?

I have a 2 year old dwarf hamster and all he does is sleep in his wooden house. He does nothing but eating and hes really lazy. How do i make him go out and have more fun like running around playing etc. P.S i tried adding new rooms, putting a small seesaw inside, giving him treats and petting him.

Get a hamster ball and let him run around your home, keep him away from stairs though.

Well, he's pretty old for a dwarf hamster, so I'd just keep him comfortable right now =].You should still give him some exercise, but he won't be as into it as when he was younger. It's just how hamsters are.I've heard that every human year is 25 years for a hamster, so he's in his 50's.

He's getting to the end of his life span, slowing down is normal. You've given him great stuff in case he gets the urge, but don't expect too much of him.

Dwarf hamsters are really boring, the man at the pet shop said there come out once there more comfortable.. They never did..

I'm sorry to tell you this, if you don't already know, but at two years old, a Dwarf hamster is a senior citizen. A little devrease in ebergy level is to be expected. You can't "make" him have fun. You are doing what you can, provide new things to try to get him interested. The other thing is that they are nocturnal. He may be up all ight having fun while you're asleep. The exercise ball isn't a bad idea. But my Dwarf hamsters just sit there and do nothing in their exercise balls. They never have really gotten to where they enjoy rolling all over the house like some do.

get a hamster wheel buy toys spin some time with it if it bites wrap your hand in a towel and then pick it up

He is not really being lazy. Dwarf Hamsters live 2-3 years but the most average would b e 1.5 years. Your hamster is old, I hate to say it. Just give him TLC and handle him a little bit.

Put him in his ball then pick him up and pet him!

I have dwarf hamsters too and they LOVE it when I make them an obstacle course. I have a small pet fence i put on the floor in a circle and i put small things like toilet paper tubes and other small things they can climb on. They LOVE it when I put a few small toy trucks with seeds in the back or seeds hidden in other places around the circle. They are very smart and Love the challenge.

Hamsters sleep in the day. Thats why :)Good Luck :)Sabby

You look the dwarf hamster straight in the eye and say "Dwarf hamster, you are ging to have fun, do you hear me? Now move it, move it! Go have fun!!!" and then you pat him lightly and say "I wuv you dwarf hamster!"
