If your hamster decides to have a little more freedom, stay calm and follow these simple suggestions. Hopefully, and with a little patience, your hamster will turn up, as happy and healthy as ever. Stay on the look out!

Check all over your house, especially warm places like where the pipes are under the floor, or behind furniture.

Leave a small pile of his favourite food in each room before you go to bed, and close all the doors. Your hamster is likely to be in the room where the pile of food has been eaten.

YUM!Get a bucket or box. Put a towel or shavings onthe bottom to cushion your hamster when it falls in. Put some tasty treats inside the bucket or box. If possible, pick treats that have a strong smell to lure your hamster out.

Pile a few books to act as steps into the bucket.

Wait, and hopefully your hamster will climb in the bucket and won't be able to get out again. Just be patient!
