About
Meet Thistle, a tiny but mighty dwarf hamster who's on the lookout for her forever home. This adorable little lady had a bit of a tough start, coming into the rescue at just 2 week of age with a poorly eye.
Thistle is the smallest of her litter and is currently recovering from a minor eye issue, but we're confident she'll be as good as new just in time for adoption!
Despite her small size, Thistle has a big personality. She's the friendliest of the bunch, loves gentle head pats, and happily climbs into welcoming hands. When she's not snuggling, she's a busy bee on her wheel, showing off her boundless energy in the playpen.
If you're looking for a sweet and affectionate companion, Thistle might just be the perfect little hamster for you!
