Quite a Digger!

Hamsters have a natural instinct to burrow. They can dig extensive tunnels beneath the ground which can be as far as 3 feet deep.

Nocturnal Animals

Hamsters are nocturnal animals meaning they sleep during the day and are active at night. Most hamsters divide their day into sleeping and waking.

Can store food in their cheeks

An unusual fact about hamsters is that they have the ability to store food in their cheeks and eat it later. If they find food at a place where they don’t feel safe, they store it and eat it later at a safe place. The mother hamsters put their babies into cheeks too to save them from predators.
