Choosing A Hamster
Visit The Rescue
With over 200 hamsters, it is easiest (and more fun) to visit the rescue directly and choose your new pet. Tony will be there to guide you toward exactly the right little friend! After your application is reviewed, we will set up an appointment for you to come by.
Adoptions To-Go (LA & OC)
If you're not able to make the trip to the rescue directly, Tony will help you choose the right new pet via photos and videos, based on your specifications listed in your adoption application. Once we have chatted and found the right match, we will set up a mobile adoption for you to take them home!
