Meet Periwinkle; Princess of Poppyland, a lovely Sapphire Winter White! She is the newest addition to my ham-family. I adopted her on Feb. 5th 2011 when she was about six weeks old. A friend of mine asked if I would be interested in adopting her. She was picked on in her colony as a baby and had to be removed. She was a bit skittish. How could I say no to such a cute face? I was apprehensive about getting her, because I wasn't looking to adopt a new hamster, especially one so fearful, but I knew in time she would turn out to be one of the sweetest little dwarfs. It only took her a couple days to warm up to us, and she's a sweetheart. She will give you kisses, and loves to come out for play time. Like most hamsters, her favorite treat is sunflower seeds. On April 16th 2011, I entered her in a California Hamster Association show at the Pet Expo. She placed 1st place in Best In Show in the dwarf class, earning a gold medal and cutest dwarf in the fun class. She is another hammy superstar, and I am thankful to have her in my life.
