【Psychological Preparation for breeding hamsters Hamsters are living animals, so do not make sufficient mental preparation before feeding Please do not blindly First to answer the following questions: 1. Do you have some time to raise it? 2. Your family against you keeping small animals? 3. You can guarantee someone in your care when going out for a long time hamster it? 4. You can guarantee the freshness of the first post does not abandoned it with the past. When you can not continue to raise, you can find a suitable adoptive ones? If you can not be sure these points, I suggest you do not get. 】 【How to choose a hamster How to choose a healthier hamster to do? Here are a few ways to get your reference: 1, to _select_ the eyes and mucus in the hamster is not God. 2 to see if there is no hamster runny nose, do not pick any. 3, the shape of the ear is intact, there is no bite at the scene. If only hamsters that were too weak or sick to bully the other hamster bites. 4, not out into the outside of the teeth, color light, look with no hair loss or tumors. 6, the tail can not have spots, near the stomach is not good, said the only hamster may have diarrhea. 7, the walking is not normal, there is no feeling of stiffness, limb and health is not sound is key. If it looks very good, should be no problem. Finally, choose one that you like hamsters, in addition to coat color other than see if it would have to consider close to people. Generally speaking, gold hamster breeding rats and Jiaka Australia is easy to close the period, Robert Campbell hamsters and hamster Petrovsky little more difficult, especially Robert Petrovsky hamster gallbladder itself is very small and sensitive animals, so may have to spend some time to get it to your trust. As to keep a forced or a pair of good, basically if it is Duowa Fu Hamster, then raise is better than two. If the hamster, then it may raise a can to keep a pair of separate support would be better to wait until then to breed when the male mice into female mice within a cage, to be separated after mating. 【Hamster feeding Ten Contraindications (1) prohibit the feeding of food people eat, too much salt, condiments and overweight children will increase the body burden of rats. (2) to prohibit direct contact with the sun, the mice are very sensitive to heat children, summer, use heat sinks or marble as they cool off. (3) if necessary, to prohibit child washed rat body. (4) Please be aware that their own children varieties of rats, mice children who live alone or combined with different varieties of cages banned. (5) In the absence of psychological or economic capacity to prepare, do not female mice, male mice caged together, very impressive mouse reproductive ability children. (6) prohibit the use of unsolicited feed, vermin, or moldy, discard, do not feed! (7) to prohibit their children to drink unboiled water rat, please ask them to drink boiled cold water. (8) prohibit the use of chopsticks, popsicle sticks and other things for children who rat molars, use child-specific mouse molars market supplies, feed. (9) prohibit the use of newspaper, tissue paper, and so do cushion. Too many newspaper ink, glossy paper containing bleach. (10) prohibiting the mouse over the small children are raised in space, space at least wheel, water bottle, bowl, pits and other supplies. 】 【Hamster breeding environment Optimum temperature 20-28 ℃, avoid direct sunlight or directly to the place where the wind blows, but to pay attention to ventilation. Do not leave TV, stereo, computer too close, hamsters can not hear the voice of the human hearing, should be avoided radiation and noise. Summer: best no air conditioning, because when you go off the air conditioner, air conditioning make the house into the room and the temperature difference is too large, hamsters is sensitive to temperature, easy to catch a cold. Winter: Do not do outdoor, hamsters because of cold and hibernation. Shop sawdust and other multi-pad material, configured for the hamster huts of wood or straw for warmth. Or to some napkins to hamster own nest. The easiest way is to put cardboard boxes or plastic cage inside the whole, but to pay attention to ventilation. The basic supplies】 【hamster Cage ventilation in summer, use wire cages or plastic cages of iron, such as the field cage and so on. Please note that children in winter the warm rats, all plastic cages more suitable for winter. 【★ Do not use a wire cage chassis, Shushu may easily fracture injuries】 BATH Most cages are built bowl. If you need to buy their own, usually in small containers can be used, as long as it is not easy to knock over, and the edge of the not too high, or hamster can not climb inside. Commonly used containers: glass ashtrays, soy sauce dishes, various small bowl, microwave box. :3-10 yuan at current prices Drinking Most were built in the drinking cage, DIY when they are best one, because the hamster is the need to drink water. The general design of the front drinking a stainless steel beads, pay attention to test whether the leakage time of purchase. Do not directly get a bowl filled with water, because water will wet hair hamster, or go swimming, easy to catch cold sick. It did not give hamsters fed some vegetables and fruits. Toilet Generally fitted with a plastic cat litter box is relatively simple to the toilet. Remove the cat litter every day or to replace all of agglomeration, which in accordance with the personal hygiene habits. Love clean people keep out of the hamster is also more love clean. Shower room Some hamsters will bathe in the toilet with cat litter, though unhealthy, but this is the hamster's preferences, this time to no longer need to shower room, but some hamsters love to clean, the owner should buy a shower room to it, put bathing on the sand so that hamsters enjoy rolling holes to play. Sand bath should use sterile, but also he will sand wash, put in the microwave disinfection of drying, mixing the powder bath made of sand used. Best not to directly use talcum powder, because the irritation is too strong, but also harm the hamster's eyes. Wheel running Most cages are built to run round, run one day because of the wild hamster 20 km, so the appropriate amount of exercise in hamsters is very important, not enough exercise, excessive pressure on the hamster will fight with each other and bite cage and other behavior. Therefore, the owner should be given careful hamster wheel of a race. Meanwhile, the present owner to the hamster's nutrition is very good, tend to make the hamster obesity, but also easy to get on the hamster cardiovascular disease, so even a hamster, it should have normal, healthy body. Note the time of purchase, should choose to run seamless round, it is not easy to injured hamster. The current price :10-80. Sawdust As the cage of the pad material, many materials can be used, but most people would prefer to use wood chips, because it is clean and easy to get. Sheets of paper when using the note had not used the printing paper, ink is toxic, hamsters will be poisoned. Molar Stone / molar rod Hamster's teeth will continue to grow, you need to stick with the molar teeth to wear off too long. Cabin House porcelain, wood, straw, plastic, hamster liked, because the hamster is love burrowing animals living, conditional to the hamster with a house should be. The current price :10-45. 【Schedule】 The hamster home, because it left the living environment has been to leave his mother and brothers and sisters, there will be more time to become very sensitive to tension is lost, sometimes bite, trance, refused to eat, etc. , and this time you and your hamster is a critical period of confidence-building, it is difficult if not handled properly after the re-establishment of good relations, and chances are that your hamster will turn into a hamster has a bad bite! Here are a timetable, do not hurry, a little bit and get along with your hamster: Day 1: let it adjust to the new environment, totally not to disturb it, do not touch it, not to fetch it Here. Day 2: can be fed by hand to eat, speak softly, and it and let it know your smell and voice. Day 5: It can be gently picked up, on the palm of the hand (do not let it drop or get lost.) Day 10: enjoy, and it can be played. Hold to the attention of hamsters: Hamsters do not like sleeping harassment, so when you pick up before he was sure it was clear, should first put aside its nest so that it can see you, and then gently it picked up, if it is not, do not have to. 】 【Hamster food (1) Do not look at Shu Shu too cute to give too much sunflower seed or high calorie foods, Shu Shu easy to gain weight, unbalanced nutrition. Obese mice children, summer, easy to heat stroke, skin, fat, thick, easy hair removal. Sunflower seed about one to four on Tuesday, it is enough! Mice can be used as the training of children with food reward. (2) Please do not think Shu Shu is not to drink! Water must be supplied and changed every two or three days of drinking water. (3) fruits and vegetables a part of Do not feed too much, likely to cause diarrhea deaths. Most fruits and vegetables contain pesticides, please wash with water and then drying feeding. (4) and the staple food with some snacks, snacks increased, the staple food Reduce, do not give too many snacks, fat rat child gets sick. (5) Please feed and snacks in sealed cans sealed, can be placed on the refrigerator, the breeding of pests of food, please discard. Edible food: Vegetables vegetables (such as bok choy), carrots, pumpkin (green and yellow vegetables is better) Sunflower seeds, peanuts, walnuts, pine nuts (do not give too much) Fruits, apples, strawberries, cherries, bananas (which may stick to the cheek pouch, please try not to Shu Shu), grapes (as many do not give too much sugar) Cereal chicken feed, pigeon feed, bird feed, wheat, corn, millet Plant clover, dandelion, GE class, plantain (Please do not feed the plants may be highly contaminated) Animal protein, beef, chicken, hard boiled eggs for protein, cheese, milk, yogurt, insects, pet fish dry with Feeding amount: the amount of food supply hamsters less easily and more difficult, because the hamster has the habit of storing food, if food Without it will be very up_set_. So, if every time you add the food bowl is always empty when found, then add to that too little food, but also pay attention to timely clean-up did not eat the food, especially fruits and other things that have moisture and prevent deterioration. Drinking water is available, installation is easy to drink in height, to the type of tank containers Riga water. Hamsters can play in the water in summer, but do not confused the cage is too wet. Hamsters have a place in the fixed habit of urinating in a place it is often placed on the female potty, put the urine or feces in it, so potty take the smell, it will place as a toilet to use. If you do not have toilet, then do not force it, just pay attention to regularly clean the cage on the line. Hamsters are omnivorous, eating pumpkin so it can be yellow-green vegetables, cabbage, lettuce and other light vegetables; potato, beans, fruits, weeds, seeds and so on. Hamsters are also special diets. However, when the diet-based, but also pay attention to feed some vegetables and fruits. As a protein source, can be fed boiled eggs, cooked dried fish, cooked chicken and cheese, tofu, etc., can also feed some dog food, cat food and so on. Hamsters are stored in the gills in the food habits. Pay attention to replace ground water. Daily to clean bowls and water supply device, the replacement of fresh food and water. Also replace the nest material. Check the nest boxes, savings in the hamster food places, to leave some fruit or other solid food to feed hamsters eat. Dressings changed once a week the end of the cage, the cage 1-2 times a month cleaning and disinfection. Hot summer temperatures easily rise in the tank, the summer, it is best to move the cage in captivity. Put the cage in a well ventilated place, be careful not to let direct sunlight. Hot, hamsters do not eat solid diets should be fed vegetables and other foods rich in water. Autumn reserve of food, do not forget to always check the nest boxes, the temperature is too low to prevent the hamster into hibernation. Placed in a heated room, she was not too much attention to the temperature difference between day and night. Plastic bags can be put to the cage, or put into the cardboard box holding the cage. Emotional hamster Compared to hamsters and cats and dogs, it is more difficult to communicate and get the animal owner. But as long as a day closer look, you can still understand the emotions of hamsters. And the hamster will express their emotions, a careful look at these actions and information to understand the emotional hamster. 【Order】 body hair Hamster body hair, it is the finishing state of relaxation. Otherwise, the owner is, after touching hamster, hamster taste of their own disappearance, want to taste once again applied to the body above the state. Most hamsters like their taste. 】 【Rolled over Out into the owner's hand inside the cage when rolled over. This is because the hand through to be surprised when, or disgusted with the state. Hamster almost no weapons against the enemy, so it rolled over on four resistance. Slowly this time as long as the past, so you can rest assured hamsters. Especially when the hamster to sleep, do not scare hamster. Roll into a circle】 【 To see that this is a hamster sleeping posture, this time to keep it down. Bad physical condition, but also rolled up, we should pay more attention. Cold weather will be rolled up, this time is warm. 】 【Biting cage Bite the wire cage, it may be hamsters to escape, some hamsters will be the hair above the nose of friction between the wire, making the bald top of his nose. This behavior is to let the hamster molars, the length of the control teeth. 】 【Drooping ears To understand the emotional hamster, the most easy to see is ears. If the drooping ears, the feeling of hate or terror must be the time, just woke up when the ear is drooping. Hard straight】 【body After turning on the wheel will suddenly stand still, you want to use this hamster wheel to move to far away, to stop standing still is where to confirm their arrival. Stand up shake】 Stand up is to understand the situation from afar, feeling for four weeks, pay attention to hearing the voice, the voice on the feed bags will stand up when there is reaction. 】 【Lying on the floor Came out from the cage, the body together, lying on the floor, everywhere smell. This is a place for new tensions, to highlights the surrounding situation. This time do not suddenly a great sound. 【】 Hamster hiding in a narrow place was originally a wild animal, living in a narrow tunnel inside. When playing indoors, hamsters down to rest assured, will always find the narrow dark place, if the hamsters went to a corner of the room need to be aware. Purchase: 1. The best _select_ion of the same species of hamster, because the different species of hamster is very easy to fight. 2. Because they are nocturnal, day to sleep about 12-14 hours before the evening activities and eating, so choose the best time to buy in the evening or at night, so can see the hamster lively side. 3. Generally speaking, the characteristics of healthy hamsters was able-bodied, God the eyes, ears, put up without the normal secretions, wool average supple, dry and hard stool were grainy. 4. Hamsters also afraid of strangers, just more sensitive when trying to go home, take two three-day adaptation period to tell you "close contact." Hamsters are nocturnal animals, like to sleep in the daytime, at night out activities, when they sleep, they do not wake it! Four weeks have been a big adult hamsters. They are different with mice, they have a very short tail, not even the tail. Hamster most interesting is to understand both sides of the food hidden in the gills, in a safe place, then spit it out. 【Note】 medical matters (1) What if Shushu sick, do not panic, do not becoming a sudden illness, to minimize the short-Shu Shu hospital time. VIII, rat mothers during the production notes: (1) female rats during pregnancy, remember a certain point cage with the male rats. Male rats sometimes eat baby mice; the most important point is that male mice may still continue to heat, regardless of cause, then still in the cage during the feeding of pregnant female rats, thus affecting the maternal body and even life. Also build the capacity of maternal essence, there will be a child and then a second child if possible. Therefore, male mice divided cage in time is essential. (2) Please help my mother take nourishing food, mice, the production is very pernicious to health, you can use hemp seed, nutrition cream, nutrition, water, dried fish, bread, worms, so that rat mothers increased nutrition. (3) in the mouse between the full moon, as far as possible, do not replace the mother rat cages placed items, mats and other materials. Very easy to scare into the mouse mother, baby or breast-feeding lead to recovery (eating mouse), mice before the full moon, do not touch their hands Oh! (4) mice after one month, long-haired, eyes open could leave the rat mothers after weaning, then, may try to touch the baby mice! (5) mice after the feeding is best to wait until the full moon worm bread, bread insect shells. At this point the baby's digestive system is not fully, do not feed bread, insects, easy to indigestion. Female rats fed on their own mice, mice do not intentionally fed to help. (6) mother rats during pregnancy, remember to pick up the wheel, and sometimes my mother would be to play the mouse wheel while ignoring breast-feeding. Shu Shu body】 【self-examination (1) Teeth: Shu Shu's front teeth are constantly growing, and sometimes the teeth too long, will lead to not eating. Then you can cut your teeth, use dental appliances, small animals, cut, if not cut, can be brought to the doctor cut teeth. (2) scent glands: male rats have, in the middle of the abdomen, a yellow one thing, that is, scent glands, male rats in heat, the smell will be particularly important here. Scent glands will sometimes hoard too much time to remember the tune to use hydrogen peroxide mixed salt water to 1:10, to help them wipe Oh! If the accumulation of too much, please bring veterinary hospital doctor cleared. (3) Eyes: Shu Shu If healthy, the eyes should be very Shui-liang shiny, if red, watery eyes oil or gum, then we should note, to bring the doctor to see it. (4) poop: Shu Shu's going to the toilet should be a bit of hardness, grain size, black no odor. Sometimes turn green, red, etc., then do not get too nervous, please recall Shushu their feed, whether green or red feed, if any, going to the toilet green is normal. In case of soft stools, or with the odor, then taken to hospital as soon as possible. (5) cheek pouch: sometimes cheek pouch to note whether there is eating something, if not finished, please do not give food. Food if the smell of corruption in the cheek pouch, easily lead to cheek bursitis. Regular attention to whether there is food cheek pouch smell of corruption, and time to help him in the cheek pouch of food and clear the use of salt water transfer in 1:3 mode, using the feeding needle _insert_ed into the buccal capsule washing. (6) Color: Shu Shu's hair is usually soft and shiny. If you have alopecia, note whether it is allergies, and give a medical examination as soon as possible. (7) temperature: Shu Shu's body temperature normal touch, some slightly higher than our body temperature, but the feeling is not obvious, if obviously feel Shushu hyperthermia, immediately rushed to the hospital, most likely a heat stroke precursor! 【To prepare people who care Shushu Recommendations 1, trust me, this is very important 2, my life only a few short years, and you are suffering every minute apart, in the meet before I became a member of your family, please keep this in mind 3, so I understand, let me be your companion before expected, give me a little time. 4, free time, please talk to me, even though I can not understand your words, but when you speak, I can understand your voice 5, do not always call me, do not lock me up and punish me. You have your friends, your family, your career. But I have only you. 6, how do you treat me, I will never forget 7, hit me in your hands, please do not forget, I have enough strength to bite you, but I do not choose to hurt you. 8, when I grow older, they better be sure to take care of me. Because you have old one day. 9, when I faced death, and you waiting at my side. Do not say "I bear down" or "let it go when I'm away." You by my side, I can be calm to face anything. 【】 Ss breeding table Third-line + line = third-line three + Three-wire three-wire (with the purple storage genes) = c + three-wire line (with the purple storage genes) Three-position = c + Purple Line (with purple warehouse gene) + Purple positions Three-wire (with purple warehouse gene) + three-wire (with the purple storage genes) = c + three-wire line (with the purple storage genes) + Purple positions Position = position + Purple Purple Purple positions + Silver fox silver fox silver fox = third-line + storage + Purple (Comments: Silver Fox is (dominant) gene.

Shu Shu's feet can easily get stuck, causing a fracture, or break out of the cage. And paint out of Shushu insecurity (Shushu to chew on the cage.) This I can attest, Phi Phi once I open the door and was caught off a piece of leg skin, Sister the day before eating their own cage, nibbling and gnawing on his leg caught in, moaning softly for a moment, Or not to turn their legs to pull out, finally, I tried every means to get out of it, fortunately did not become a lifelong affliction, but a large bruise. If you buy imported cages, used generally between 50-100. The new 100-300 range. Or some rat friendly finishing their own DIY box is also good, get a full _set_ of less than 100 can get off, of course, except for the appearance. Rat toilet: Shu Shu will point to the toilet (Shu Shu is like a clean animal, but not each have behaved Oh) This habit of using them to clean up time will be a lot easier. Otherwise, they are confused pee down all over the place, Every day or two to a cage full of flavor. You can go buy some plastic products installed sand rat, or purchase a custom-made specifically for Shushu mouse clo_set_. Spending in this area ranging from a few dollars to tens! Kettle and bowl: ten dollars you can get. (Imports purchased with a water bottle cage and bowls are generally of the) Wheel: Basically all comes on the cage. Friends of the rat if it is necessary to DIY buy their own, or own one. Remember to buy seamless, Do not buy that a middle joints of a kind, Shushu when running very fast. Once the card inside the leg, is very easy to break out of. Wheel is generally divided into two non-mute and mute, the price of this thing is from 5 yuan to tens of dollars. Cabin: Shushu are nocturnal animals, they tend to sleep during the day, So be prepared to hide the stuff that can give them as a place to sleep, Small tray to custom-made for Shushu house mice can be beautiful, (Some imports two-story frame building with a cage, can be a sleep and local). Price from a few dollars to tens of dollars. Basic supplies: Feed: a pack of imported feed about 30-60 per month, you can eat for a long time. In addition to the urine smell some of the advertised results. Is not very recommended for pigeons, or feed store their grain mix, nutrition does not meet the requirements of Shu Shu. Do not think they are house mice can eat anything and as absorption, health is not good, there will be Michong or other moths (Likely to have toxic mold or yellow wheat), but if really can not afford to buy expensive imported feed, This is also the forced choice! And the strong to avoid eating the snack food Shushu. Pad material: poplar is better but more expensive. A package will almost 50. Many people use pine, both from the 20-40 odd, try to pick the less dust (Wood chips that you will not change under both the kind of tears), there are other types of media, Gen corn, wood chips and other Sand. Bath Sand: WILD-308 for a package of about 65-90 yuan. Can be used about half a year, can be recycled. When the smell should be replaced, if the new ones were just wet, you can separate out the wet areas. Some people will use cat litter instead of sand bath, and I do not agree with this approach, the cat flushing the sand to the sand when the mouse results were pretty good. But Shushu only, particles too large to help the body get rid of bacteria. (Do not remember the bath water to Shushu Oh, Shu Shu natural fear of water. May die after washed). Water: Always use boiled water, purified water fed the best conditions (maternal breast-feeding milk to feed properly.) Molar supplies: a dedicated wood and molar teeth mineral salts, but Shu Shu will not necessarily like it, Some refreshments will be more popular molars. Price from 10 to 60 yuan. Do not use disposable tachyon, popsicle sticks and the like! (By finishing me friends must be prepared to support them. If the cage, Shu Shu will bite teeth grinding way the cage is arguing the point) Shu Shu or not to wash it? To take a bath! This is certainly a good starting point, but for Shushu who, it is not like humans, enjoy a bath in the fun. Size is too small to take a bath because they will be consumed for them and has caused too much physical risk of influenza exists. Shu Shu usually clean up their hair, keep the body clean, so no need for us as a master In particular, holding them to a bath. However Shushu does fit around the small ass wet towel with warm water and gently wipe after. Alternatively, you can prepare a soft hair brush often help Shushu finishing the one hand, and Shu Shu good way to close, On the other hand you can also check the status of Shushu skin and limbs, especially the long-haired hamster species but also to have often finishing. Finishing time, you can brush your teeth with the kind of small children when brush teeth toothbrush. Along the direction of hair growth slowly comb the past, short-haired species Shushu probably do a two to three weeks, long-haired species is done once a week. The market is also selling some of Shu Shu cleaning supplies, such as dry powder and foam cleaning agents, You can also use them, washing the spirit of the future will be more Shu Shu, Shu Shu's body odor but also to cover the living, But be careful not to get Shu Shu's eyes or face other organs. They will roll in the sand on to the dirt to remove hair, it can also meet the Shushu dig nature. So basically as long as there are ways to do this, you do not have to worry about Shushu hair problem on cleaning. Shu Shu linked to patient If Shushu sick, but a sad and troublesome people and things! Because the current pet medicine, or for cats, dogs, horses, etc., The partners in the Millennium with human coexistence, as Shu Shu is popular only in recent years together. For Shushu, we still have many places to study, present only know some of the treatment of major diseases, Shu Shu small stature, metabolic fast, hard to find early signs of illness, Usually to found, has no light condition, and this also caused problems on the treatment, but not necessarily cured. More troubling is that, for these reasons, there will very few veterinary treatment Shushu and want even more difficult to find veterinary specialization, So the best way, is from the daily life of preventive health care, to avoid Shushu hanging sick. Attention to sanitation There is a lazy, dirty Wozhu, Shu Shu sick easily Oh! Mess of the environment, easy to breed bacteria, Mites or cockroaches and flies attracted to visit, Shunpian Dai point bacteria when "with hands", Shu Shu gets it. Wozhu clean water every day the best device, feed basin, toilet, frequently changes the wet wood chips, preferably once a week cleaning cages, And disinfected with hot water burns. Play around with the Shushu should wash your hands. Balanced diversification To nutritionally balanced, varied diet fed Shushu, not lazy, pour some ready-made feed and leave, Because the resistance only eat eat it! Also drinking water is also Wozhu are easy to neglect the place, drinking water should be changed every day, Contaminated to change, not to drink tap water in the area, please Shushu human use of drinking water, and drink it much anyway. Stable temperature and humidity Shu Shu mostly from dry areas, note should be placed in a dry cage, quiet place, avoid moisture (so often for wood). Shu Shu is sensitive to temperature, the wild Shushu live in a hole, a natural thermostat function, should maintain a stable temperature, The temperature difference between the weather and the winter to keep warm, to prevent causing Shushu hibernation. Shu Shu is not generally hibernate, that is, sleep longer than usual number. Avoid the stress and strain Shu Shu sensitive nature (such as Robert Petrovsky Special timid hamster), raised in artificial environments, Is easy to feel the pressure and tension, it seems, like with humans, the pressure tension often lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea, Even had stomach ulcers. Do not play with fire Shu Shu, such as chase, forced jump, throw in a strange environment and so on, We may find it very interesting, but feel the pain Shushu fear. Shu Shu pressure to solve the problem The first is the provision of adequate exercise space, to Shushu live in a big cage, place the running wheel, and come out to play every day. Especially nervous temperament old man and old woman, generally can not easily touch Will be very easy to frighten them, causing self-harm, or harm to master finger bite incidents. Of course, to the old lady and old man making out, is not difficult, basically the second generation will be better, Because young people grew up with, it is easy to get started playing.

Social theory on the hamster
Earth Every creature has a life, people, hamster, too, a new birth mother will feel happy, S mom too. From the moment of birth, a fate destined to belong to this move to move to the small things, a maternal Nengchan several children, the child's life these few are the same, some mice was born after his mother abandoned even Xuepentaikou; others because maternal milk is not enough to feed and die; they are pets, a master, because a number of master's ignorance, excessive curiosity, leading them mother's abandonment. These red peanuts to 80%, even 70% live to weaning it? Rat traders do not prate, where conditions, these mice after weaning the number of alive and healthy with being bought, 80% of it? Shop is a transit point for rats, some mice go from a happy, some are doomed from the tragic ending. Part of the line, little three, little purple is the very cheap price to the people who keep reptiles; Part of the S was sold to the children no sense of responsibility, so I go in May last year to pick Qiaoqiao Satsuki, and I saw about the same grade two students (who wore the uniform Houde) to get 20 dollars bought a pudding (that would be an over-supply), I was next to them to choose, after a while I did not pick Satsuki like Shu Shu, ready to ride home, and in the parking lot that saw the two of them, that Tao Tao with two children with that bite like pudding, and then the pudding from the box fell to the ground, walk away ... from him to abandon him to buy less than 5 minutes. The rats were part of the new owner to take home, some because of family objections have been abandoned fate. Despite these mice can not live a normal life, how many rats are sold live through this period? 40% have? Here to count how many rats live their entire life complete (in 100 mice born to count) 100 * 70% * 80% * 40% * 40% = 8.96 That is 100, only 8.96 can only be a small S in peace in this life they had finished, a quick look at this figure is impossible, but this is a fact to count .. Ladies and gentlemen, please cherish your hands Shushu, they handed over the command you, you must not live up to their expectations of you this, a life to take care of them. Even if they are sick, do not give up the treatment; so they are getting old, when walking unsteadily, but also so good for them, never betray. Because life should be cherished, even if it is just a Shushu. Classical - Hamster Yao Angong supervision when new positions south, destroyed a barn wall for no reason.
