My dad was in the room watching me research on hamsters and he saw my phone and said, "Oh god.." 😂
He knows what is coming.😂
Jade Dalaska how did you comment 4 hours ago? This video came out 1 hour ago
Super Tane channel members/patrons (depending on the channel) can watch videos early (they are unlisted and a link is sent to the supporters) That might be what happened idk tho
Madeline Loyd oh ok
Same-but I have a hamster now 👀
the clip of pet mills are absolutely so sad and made me sick. i just ugh i have no words 😞
Erie Garcia me too
Same it made me so sad and disgusted anyone would have the lack of heart to do that to cute hammies ☹️
Frr😐
I have joined the waiting list for my local ethical breeder, and my friend asked why. My reply was literally just “search rodent mills” and she was so appalled. We can’t blame people for not knowing! Because people don’t, it’s propaganda. You are only accountable when you know and still continue to support this!! x
Yeah, these pet mills just make me wanna like, go in there with a flame thrower and take all the hammier to good homes where they can be loved forever and forget about their horrible experiences.
I told my mom about hamster mills and to not buy from pet smart anymore and she agreed! I can't wait for my future adopting hamsters and giving them a good home!
I’m trying to find hamsters without having to go to pet smart unfortunately we’re I live I can’t find any up for adoption
@@Hannahrogo_479 same
We need to sign a petition to stop pet stores from selling hamsters like they do!! Please don’t buy from a petco/pet smart ETC! Tysm!!!
Agreed If I am ever able to get a hamster, I would never get one from a pet store supporting that evil
petco and petsmart is cringe we need to kil company
won’t work
@@klesnett not all pet stores are bad! They don’t all get their hamsters from rodent mills. Please keep that in mind :)
not all get them from places like that. the one i work at gets it from a good place
Pet mills absolutely disgust me and I can’t imagine how some people can be so heartless towards animals. I adopted my hamster and gave him a much better life and now he’s very affectionate towards people 💞🐹
I hope I can own a hamster adoption, I would probably only have 6 or 5 at a time and all in different cages, I think that's the minimum I can take care of, so just know not all of them will be bad hopefully
That's great you were able to give him a better life!
*guilt intensifies* I bought my gerbils from a pet store... Im sorry...
@@beepbeep6500 that's ok I bought my hamster at PetSmart 😭before I understood the cruelty of Mills with my next ham I'm gonna adopt👍
@@urmom-zr3pd yeah, mine at petsmart too, i think they dont feed them enough at petsmart either, mine were thin, not to thin, but thin and now they are THICC 🤣 but next time i will adopt and give suffering animals a new life (i got mine from petsmart cause i can't control where we go to get them, i can't drive TwT)
Well, a flying unicorn hamster would be sick😂
@Derek Aloisio 😐
Yesss
I’m getting a hamster for Christmas
My daughter isnt a fan of hamsters but she'd be all about a flying unicorn hamster
I'll probably get one.
Years ago, me and my sister were at petsmart, and the worker wanted us to look at another guinea pig in some room. We weren’t thinking at the time I guess, and purchased him and his brother, we spent a fortune on supplies that were safe and good. A few weeks later they both passed away and we were heart broken. That room was where they kept the sick ones..... wtf.
That’s horrible omg

“ I don’t want anyone to get murdered or killed”
What???
@@floridagirl9064 watch through the whole video-
lmao i had to pause it there to think... murdered or killed.. lmao
Right when I red this the word popped up
I adopted my hamster tatortot because he had wet tail, when the worker showed me him, I actually CRIED he was so sick, I took him to my exotic vet that day, but hes better now! THANK GOD
I'm glad he's doing well now!
Omg thank god ❤️
❤️ 🐹
I had a hammy named tater tot. he escaped though :(((
@@kayleeslover6420 I'm sorry for you loss!❤❤
Me: goes to petstore and looks at animals Employee: "Can I help you"? Me: goes into rant about pet mills Employee: "Look lady, I just want to do my job."
yeahhhh, as a person that works at petsmart, we cant control where the animals come from, or even how they are taken care of. there is policy for everything, like what you feed each animal and how much, and we can get fired if we do something else. I personally sugest to customers to look at expos and local breeders if they are considering an animal, especially if we are out of that certain animal, but I like to hint at it even if we have it. policy is to show them different options! though i might take that a bit far :3 if anything, when you do that, your just kind of blaming them for working there, even when most poeple WHO work there do it to try and make it better. if they care that is. some dont, and thats sad, but the workers who do care, try to help the animals the best they can in the shitty environment that companies put them in.
@@reckbiscuit6214 I'm sorry I offended you. I was just making a joke, this never happened. I don't even go to Petsmart.

I went to the pet store today and my eyes literally teared up when i saw the condition all the animals were kept in, and seeing how animals in pet mills are treated in this video literally made me burst out crying.
I feel so guilty for not knowing about pet mills. I would always get my hamsters from pet stores and most of them didn’t live any longer than 4 months. I will make sure my next hamster will be a rescue or from a good breeder.
I have wanted a “little pet” for such a long time, basically my whole life. My cat recently passed away and I was devastated. As a result of this my parents finally said that I could get a hamster if I keep my room clean for 2 months. I am so excited and your videos are helping me to get ready to get hamster. I just want to say thank you for making such amazing videos that bring light to proper care. Without you I would be doing so many things wrong so I am so glad that I found your Chanel. Thank you 💞🐹
That is awesome! I am adopting my hamster on the 20th. She is a year old. Hamsters are such great pets!❤
Better keep that room clean 😂
That's great!Keep doing lots of research.
Aw I'm so excited you can get a chance to own a hamster! I'm also glad my videos could be of help!
Agreed owning a hamster is a great rewarding experience for hardworkers :)
Who else clicked as soon as they saw this Edit: OMG thx for all the likes!!!
meh
Me lol

Meee
No duh
oh man, I've heard of puppy mills, but it somehow never occurred to me that the same would be going on with rodents! And I was always told the hamster types I had as a kid were teddy/panda bear hamsters 😂😂 no idea they were fake nicknamey terms lol. so glad to have found your channel! I had hamsters as a kid, and while I knew a lot of random facts about them, I know there was a loooot I wasn't doing right, and I'm learning more with every video from you!!
Yeah, I think mills happen for all pet animals.
My mother in laws sister owns a puppy mill. It's absolutely disgusting. Many family members have reported her, but they don't care. It's disgusting.
IN THE PET SMART IN THE VIDEO IT HAD MESH WHEELS That is bad and evil :(
Ikr
im not saying mesh wheels arnet that bad I hate them but... O M G there force breeding thousands of tiny leetle hamhams but whats this? oh my god MESH WHEELS!!!!!!!1!!!1!1111 THEY ARE LIKE SO EVIL THEY HURT LITLE HAMHAMS FEETSIES!!!!1!1!1111
I got my hammy from the back of a pet store for free adoption. Someone had given him up to PetSmart. PetSmart can’t sell animals that were out of the cages for any period of time. Ask your local petsmart if they do adoptions.
We have a local shelter and they have adoption days at petsmart:)
After 2 years of being the owner of my hamster i just remembered ... i bought him from a pet store 😟 And after i watched this video i just... im so sad that his mom probably went trough a life in a pet mill 😭 If i ever get another hamster... i will probably adopt Edit: 6:43 that lil video clip is zo cute :0
I just recently got my hamster from a animal shelter! I’m so happy to have been able to adopt her! Even though we had to drive 3 ish hours to get there it was definitely worth it!
That's really awesome!
I had been begging my parents for a Russian dwarf hamster for months. My parents got me 2 of them for Christmas, from PetsMart. I was really happy, I learned that they had left them in the carrying cases for 3 DAYS. I got really upset after this.
Oh my. I hope your hamsters are happy and healthy now
I’m going to ask my mom if I can have a hamster today, and prove to her that I am responsible enough. I have all the money saved up and I have everything budgeted and in a cart on chewy
I wish you luck!
Did u get one!
sadly no i did not
no:(

This is really helpful to people who want hamsters
I got my first hamster from petco about 3 months ago and he is so sweet and intelligent. I’m in love with him ❤️ I’m just now seeing your video and I thank you so much for bringing awareness about where we should be getting our hamsters!! I won’t be purchasing anymore animals from petco!! I’m just glad I can give my hamster a better home!!
I have to say, I don't love the way most pet stores (that I have been to) keep their animals, however there was one that I recently visited and it was incredible to see the amount of care the animals were treated with. Their displays were really spacious with a great amount of bedding and it was really touching to see that because usually the animals on display are crammed into tiny displays. One of the workers there also recommended I get a large crate from the store next door to convert into a hamster cage and told me about some other stores in the area I didn't know about where I might be able to find the type of bedding I was looking for. People who put animal care before money will always have place in my heart
i got my first Syrian yesterday. she is 6 months and i adopted her, shes so friendly and cute and i am so happy i got her a cage which measures about 600 square inches. thank you for everything you have taught me in all these years i love you
I did a lot of reasearch on my hamster because I need to make sure I’m able to take care of it and make sure the cages that are safe and where it comes from
I found your channel by accident and to be honest im so surprised by my lack of knowledge but with your videos I've learned ao much and im so grateful for that i hope my hamsters will have the best life ever in history😊❤
Hi Victoria! I have been a huge fan of your channel and all the information you have given me has helped me prepare for my hamster! I just want to thank you especially for this video because I was not fully aware of the horrors behind pet breeding. Thanks to you, I am currently in contact with a local breeder that does so ethically and educates others on why pet stores are not the place to buy. I wouldn’t have known this without your help. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE PET COMMUNITY! You are appreciated for the way you advocate for proper care! Thank you so much ❤️
I adopted a hamster last year and it’s the best decision i made and I wouldn’t of if it wasn’t for you 💕Thank you so much i have been a big fan for years
U have help me rais my hamster and she is perfectly healthy
Awwww
Me too!
Same!!
👍
Apple- Mite happy I could help!
Dear Victoria I just want to write a quick note to say how much I appreciate your videos; you are a fountain of knowledge that keeps giving. Your videos are informative, to the point, and a pleasure to watch. Thank you kindly for taking the time to make them. With warm regards from the UK, Jenny x
I'm really happy i've been able to help! Thank you Jenny!
great video tori! adopting rescued hamsters has definitely changed my life, it’s so good to know that you’re helping lots of animals ❣️
Thank you!
I don’t know how you do it! Every week you amaze me! I’m getting a hamster soon and i know now that i shouldn’t get it from a pet store! Thank you so much! Your are so amazing!
eeee thank you so much!
Yay, i got my first syrian hamster named pumpkin from The Great Canadian Hamster Rescue and Sanctuary!
Im getting my hamster on wednesday and i just wanna say thank you! first when I wanted to get a hamster I didn't do as much reasearch but then I came by your KZhead channel the hamster that I'm picking up in a few days is probably gonna have a good life because of you and all of that effort you put on making these videos!🥰❤
When I saw the clip of the mills it makes me want to cry so much I cant imagine seeing a animal treated like that :(
can we all appreciate how victoria takes the time and responds to our comments?
Aw thank you! I try my best
would’ve been nice to see this before i bought him from petsmart😖i literally cried seeing the mills
Some people don't have a choice tho I tried to look for one online but I can't find one near me so I have to get mine from pet smart or petco when I went to the store some had a good wheel and some didn't so I am gonna get one that looks like it was treated well like a good wheel and stuff some of them had huge wheels
@@dogsforever8778 Where do you live?
There's nothing you can do about it now, but now you know for next time. Where to get your animal is part of the research that should be done on any animal you plan on getting.
@@CelesticCF I did a ton of research for months and looked at a ton of sites I am looking for a white dwarf male hamster or another kind of dwarf and Minnesota how bout u?
@@dogsforever8778 Why specifically a white male dwarf? I hope you're not planning on breeding. You can check Hamster Hideout and Hamster Central to see what's available in Minnesota.
I’m so happy I stumbled upon hamster KZhead 🤗 I had one as a kid, and unfortunately we had a very small cage like from petco. Didn’t know any better as a child. I feel so bad knowing now. I’ve learned so much from your channel, it’s fun over here.
I have learned so much from this channel! I just adopted my Winter White hamster Oreo and I have given him a big bin cage with lots of bedding to burrow. I’m so excited to have him :) thank you for all that you’ve taught me!
Happy you could learn more about hamsters!
Finally I’m early :>>>>> I was drawing when you notified me XD I stopped what I was doing so fast just to watch another helpful and wonderful video :3
Mabey I shouldn’t have got my hamster from pets at home then 😭
Tamsin secker acc depending on where u live if u live in aberdeen or bridge of don scotland that pets at homes are good and don’t get there pets from rodent/pet mills and the health of the animals are good but I would still adopt from there and not shop
There's nothing you can do about it now, but now you know for next time. Where to get your animal is part of the research that should be done on any animal you plan on getting.
Thank you, I was also wandering about that! 🐹
If it makes u feel better I got mine at petco and now I feel bad
Pets at home in uk is usually fine.
I am sharing NOW. This video is so helpful, Victoria!

Hi I'm a huge fan I've been watching you so my hamster has the best care and I clicked right when I got the notification love your vids❤❤❤❤❤
I already have a hamster (that love so so much) that I unfortunately got from a pet store but for future reference thank u so much for the advice
Ive been looking for a hamster for a couple of weeks and me and my mum went in to Pets At Home and we saw some cute little robo hammies when we got back home i obvs came onto youtube and watched one of ur vids and it so happened ti be this one! i started cyring when i saw the bit abt hamster mills and my mum asked me what was wrong i shoed her ur vid and we both instantly started looking for ethical breedsers! Thank you so so much for showing all of us the lives those hamsters have to go through im sure u will make a difference to A LOT of different hamsters lives!!!
I knew it wasn't good to buy hamsters from petstores but i never knew they came from those horrible pet mills. We had a hamster when i was younger that was absolutly insane. It was aggressive and showed a lot of signs of stress. We never really knew why. Now I know.
You always inspire me to upgrade my hamster cage.Right now I have the IRIS Holiday Storage 😊
Omg I’m one of the clips from that Wodent place. I saw the person throw the hamster and my heart dropped omg!
i got one of my hamsters from a breeder, he had them in large cages and boys and girls were seperated, i buyed him when he was around 2/3 months. i got the other two at a shop without knowing this was happening, i am happy you spread awareness!
Lol, everything I’ve done since I bought my two hamsters have been wrong. Buying from the pet store, getting a critter trail cage, the amount of food and yogurt drops, the amount of bedding they need, the fact that I got two and keep them together... but your videos have helped me a lot! Since watching your videos I have made them the min size requirement bin cage, added more bedding, more toys so they won’t get bored, and before they become full adults I’m going to separate them and make another bin cage. Thanks for making these videos!
Another great breeder, and the one I got my hamster, Freddy, from, is poppybeehamstery. Thank you so much for making this, I love what you do💞💕
You are awesome You taught me almost everything I know about hamsters 🐹 And my hamster is very heathy
In Germany and Austria we have Hamsterhilfe! They have very strict conditions for adopting but thanks to that they always find proper care and caring homes which is great ❤️
Your channel has been super helpful for me. I got a hamster from Petsmart on January 29th. Not going to lie, I kinda did it impulsively, but I really want to be a good hamster mom, and I'm so happy I found this channel
Thank you for making all of these videos I changed a lot of things about my hamsters cage and his diet if you were wondering his name is potato 🥔
me: i stayed up until 1.20 am last night (i actually did), i think im early. youtube: Victoria Raechel posted 11 hours ago. me: omg why didn't i get the notification!!!
Aw I’m sorry KZhead didn’t notify you sooner!
i recently got a cambell hamster from a family owned pet store, and they truly care about them, the make sure they have a big space and clean surroundings. local family owned pet store are usually very responsible breeders
Keep up the good work, always enjoy you're content.
Thank you!
@@VictoriaRaechel no problem!, you always provide good content & are really helpful.

My hamsters are adopted and I love them so much
im glad I got my syrian hamster from a hamster enthusiast. she breeds rex syrian hamsters and she is very educated on hamsters. i learned a lot from her and YOU! thank you!
seeing those hamster mills brought me to tears. i’m big on animals happiness and have always had a soft spot for any type of animal. every dog my family has ever adopted has been a rescue and i really want to continue to rescue animals that aren’t just dogs or cats, but help the little ones. my first hamster of 2 and 1/2 years passed away about 2 weeks ago as her belly became blue and bloated, and i made the wise choice to put her down because that’s what my family decided before putting our old dog down. i got G (hamster) after my dog had been put down and it was really heartbreaking to let her go join him in heaven. i’m looking into getting another one and trying to improve my care, even though G lived the best life in a huge bin cage. you’ve helped me to give a better life because without your inspiration should would’ve lived a short life in a ten gallon tank with a cage topper. i was 12 when i got G and now i’m 14, almost 15. i got G from petco and most owners say hamster are mean but G was the sweetest hamster as she never bit anyone, and felt safe and comfortable. i believe she felt like that because if i were to hold her and her comfort level was high and i gave her to anyone she wasn’t very familiar with, her comfort level wouldn’t change and she was never scared. i’m hoping to find a hamster with the same personality . ❤❤
Oh wow I’ve never been this early! I haven’t watched it yet but I already know this it love this video and you too! 🤣💕
Hi! This video helped me so much!!! Thank you I now know to not get a hamster from a store when I get my new hamster soon! Thanks for everything you are doing! I really appreciate your videos!

I got my current hamster about 6 months ago from a family friend who couldn’t take care of him anymore. Now he’s super happy in his new home ❤️
I don’t really know why I didn’t think of where hamsters came from before they reach pet stores but now that I’ve watched this video it makes all the sense. I bought my 3 babies from pet stores, doing it without even thinking, and that is the last time. I’m glad I got to save them from who knows what, but I’m sad that another hamster is filling in the same spot. Thank you for providing this info, now I’m done supporting them as a whole 🙏🏼
I seen videos on pet mills and I always start crying by how the people treat the animals so badly.
OMG HI!!!!! I’ve never been so early iiiiiii😆😆🥰❤️
When you said there weren’t many ethical breeders out there it inspires me to try and become one because I want all animals to thrive with my heart and I’m going to do everything in my power to make sure they do!❤️
I know this video is 2 years old, but I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making all these educational videos. I am a new hamster mommy and I bought my first hamster 2 months ago. His name is Mr. Nibbles a miniature Russian hamster, well I love him so much that I just needed to adopt another one. I did buy both hamsters at petco because I was in there and I felt absolutely terrible the little cages they keep the hamsters in, they are placed with a few other hamsters when they should never be placed together. I just felt the need to take them out of that environment. I can definitely say without a doubt I made the right decision for my first hamster. Mr nibbles is thriving. King Tuck who is a teddy bear hamster is skiddish but never bites. I just got him 3 weeks ago and I'm doing my best to allow him to adjust. I'm not pushing him to come out of hiding if he does not want to, or pick him up. Poor guy must have been treated so terrible. I bout two 40 gallon fish tanks for each hamster. Got all my supplies from Amazon before buying them both. I really enjoy the night angel wheels and accessories like bridges and placing tunnels under their deep hamster bedding. Mr nibbles allows me to pick him up it took some time and he loves bath tub bonding with no water, just a blanket and roaming in his large play pin. I was wondering if there was anything else other than giving treats to skiddish King Tuck. He still will hide in his tunnel when he takes treats out of my hand. I'm being very patient like I said, but I want him to be at ease. I'm a nurse and I work 3 12 hour night shifts so the nights I don't work I spend time close to their hahabitat. I talk to them, watch them run, give treats ect. But when I'm in the room at night more time that not King Tuck wants to hide. He is in a 40 gallon fish tank is that to small for him? He is obviously bigger than my dwarf hamster. I really hope you see this comment. I will do anything and everything that you suggest. Because I love them both so much. I have two girls 4 and 5 and honestly they are the perfect addition to our family. Thanks again.
sad to see how people think about animals

I got my hamster from pets at home. I wish I watched your videos before getting milo, in the last 3 months I changed his quality of life drastically thanks to your advice. He's got a massive DIY home now with lots of enrichment toys and hides with 10/15 inches of SAFE bedding. Ive loved watching his happiness instantly increases with each new addition as I learn more its really rewarding. I no longer get anything from pets at home and my next hammy is defo going to be a rescue.
Thanks for sharing this, I first wanted to buy one from a pet store, but now I’m adopting a newborn hamster from a family in a city close to mine :)
What is a pet mill you ask? *HELL* (Why my hamster was from a breeder 😂💕 Although I will try to adopt too!)
I just adopted a hamster a couple weeks ago 😊
Aw congrats!
Started watching your vids one year ago. I hadn't had hamster for years but your videos made me miss having one😍 And here I am 1 year later with a little girl on almost 9 months❤ She's really nice and never bites. She has sooo much energy so I got her a detolf so she has plenty of space to explore and play in❤🐹
Aw I'm glad you could bring another hamster into your life!
I got my cat Prince Duke from the Pasadena Humaine Society! Thanks for posting Victoria!
I got mine on Craigslist after looking for 2 weeks. Turns out the girl and her granny were sweet.

Glad I could help!
I’m very thankful that my local pet shop only has animals surrendered to them or from local shelters that need more space. When I got my first hamster I got it from this shop which had to take in a litter of hamsters because someone accidentally bred them. They support good care and I am very thankful to have a shop like this around.
This is helpful! Thanks!
Omg ur the best!!!
Thank you for this video! It was SOOOOO helpful! I didn’t buy Maple (my hamster) from a pet store and I am so proud!
I’ve had two hamsters from petsmart, and since watching these videos I’ve boycotted petsmart and have only bought from Craigslist, thank you for the teaching about this, it helps a lot!
I live in Washington I will check out munchies place!!!!!
SunRay LPS she currently has some baby Syrian hamsters that will be up for adoption soon so I would recommend checking them out!
I got my hamster at pet smart. When we got him at pet smart the worker told us to put ONE inch of bedding! I did not do that because it was irresponsible of me to do that. Yesterday my little skittles passed away due to a disease he was at a “Pet Smart” I got him there. He lived a month so now I will take more better care of my pets. I had him in a tiny tales cage (I’m sorry) but now I’m gonna put my next hamster in a bin cage and take better cate of them :) I’ll do this all for my Robo dwarf of hamster “skittles” in heaven!
in finland one of our petstores can tell where the animals have come from, how to treat them good and they always ask something about ur home to know even a little bit where the animal is going! I think it's amaizing😍
im getting a hamster in a few weeks after i save up £150 to buy all the supplies, and i have been watching your videos alot lately and i just wanted to say thank you, because of you my hamster is going to have a great life because i never knew things like: not to bathe a hamster in water and get the right size wheel and never get shavings bedding etc. so thanks so much!
Trying to convince my parents to let me get a hamster and have been watching your videos to help do research, but the only thing is, I don't have any ethical breeders or shelters that have ever had hamsters near me. The closest shelter with hamsters is two hours away in a different state, so if I convince them the only place I can adopt is from a pet store :(
I got mine in a pet shop that had lots lots of fishes and snakes doggy’s and kitty’s and then I saw the Hammies 💖💝💞🐹
I got my first hamster from a pet store. I was so sad since I got my little hammy a critter trail cage. I did no research so I ended up having a pied robovroski hamster with a critter trail cage for her. But ever since I started watching your videos, I upgraded my hamster's life to the life she deserved. But she died 4 days ago. But she still had a good life.
Thank you for telling me about the big breeding thing at big chain pet stores , I never knew that xx
This video has a lot of good points. I rescue all my hamsters
My hamster Rolo I have had since October let's me stroke and hold him but he sometimes makes a squealing noise and then he will be fine. Do you know what this is and how I can get him to stop? Btw love your vids x
@Eilidh Dunbar thank you so much ! 💘
Kaiyah K my dog name is rollo and he is a shar pei
I was going to get a hamster next week but I had to do research so I watched some of your videos and came across this video I was going to check out a pet store but now I am probably never going to a pet store again unless I'm getting supplies. I love animals so I was almost crying in shock about pet mills cause I'm only 8 years old I never like it when an animal dies. I was devastated so I'm not going to buy another animal until I research on the animal . Your such a good role model to me you are so so caring to animals I bet animals love you so much. I just want to say thank you so much for what you have done and you always know what to do when something goes wrong I wish everybody was as caring as you are. I wish those sweet hamsters will get a home someday. I have always wanted to help the environment. when I grow up I hope to own a lot of animals like you but for now, a have one Australian shepherd that's a blue mearl again thank you for what you have done to help.
Thank you for watching and making sure you do your research before getting any pet
