Hello hamster friends!
I had the privilege of chatting with Tony from Snow White's Rescue Cottage this week and am so excited for you to hear all the amazing hamster knowledge she drops!
Tony is a member of the California Hamster Association, she cares for approx 200 hamsters in her rescue, Snow White's Rescue Cottage, she's a part of an upcoming movie (HamStars), AND she just started selling her own seed mix (!).
To support her rescue work by giving her an encouraging comment, sharing an adopable hamster or donating materials or funds, you can visit her website at: https://rescuecottage.org/
