To celebrate a birthday, a couple went to a pet store with the intention of purchasing a male dwarf hamster.

Soon after they brought the hamster home, they were met with a surprise… one day four tiny baby hamsters appeared in the habitat.

The hamster from the pet store was clearly a female. Hamsters are naturally solitary animals and need their own habitats for territorial reasons, let alone accidental pregnancy concerns.

No matter how the “accident” happened, the couple was overwhelmed now having five hamsters to care for. Our Companions Animal Sanctuary was able to help, taking the baby hamsters and mom to the sanctuary for adoption.
