Hamster is a very interesting little pet. It is covered with fluffy fur all over. It feels comfortable. Those who set up stalls especially like to sell this kind of animal. Hamster has a lively and active personality and is particularly agile. It is not aggressive to humans and does not carry a lot of bacteria. Moreover, hamsters have no special requirements for feeding. The hamster’s body is very petite, which is generally the size of a fist. The living space does not need to be large. As long as there is a cage with its necessities in it.
I wonder if you have ever heard of hamsters barking? In fact, hamsters can’t eat in silence except when they bark in time. But there are always one or two strange hamsters barking. What’s the reason for this?
The hamster’s cry is a bit like the “Zi Zi” made by insects, but no matter how it is called, the hamster’s cry is still as loud as mosquitoes and flies. Hamsters bark for six reasons:
1、 In a new environment, the hamster just bought home will bark, whether you gently touch it or give it delicious food. But don’t worry, as long as you keep it for a period of time, you will adapt to the quietness of your new home. Therefore, at the beginning, we should not always tease it. Let the hamster know his new home first. If he is not afraid, he will stop barking.
2、 When a hamster is ill and seriously ill, it will bark, just as it will bark when it is seriously ill.
3、 When hamsters encounter natural enemies, they will use shouting to scare away natural enemies due to a kind of self-protection. Although the artificially cultivated doll hamsters are “useless”, the instinct of animal self-protection still exists.
4、 I hate you to appear in its territory. Generally speaking, hamsters like to live with humans. But there are always some “hateful” people who always go to the hamster’s house to destroy it or knead it very hard and toss it wantonly. At this time, the hamster will shout and remind you that if you don’t put it down obediently, it will bite you hard.
5、 Provocative, some breeders think that if two hamsters are raised together, they will not be alone. In fact, they often think so. To keep two hamsters together, you can first separate them with a blind date cage to see if they bark. If they bark, don’t keep them together, because they can’t see each other.
6、 Oestrus, the female hamster will make a sound during oestrus, and it is obviously different from the call in the past.
Estrous calls are normal. For other calls, breeders should pay attention to whether there is something they haven’t taken good care of.
