They have long, thin bodies, especially compared to Syrian hamsters, but they also have simply longer tails. Chinese hamsters are excellent climbers who use their easily graspable tails as a tool, although they have little room in most conventional cages to demonstrate their tree-like abilities. Chinese hamsters will not form a close bond and will only come to the side of their enclosure if bees or other animals are found nearby or nearby. Chinese hamsters are dark brown and are sometimes mistaken for the Russian hamster. They have black stripes on the spines and on their belly is white, and they have a black stripe along the spines and a white stripe on the tip of the tail. Chinese hamsters can catch colds and other diseases from their human owners, so if you have a cold, cough or stomach complaint, don't touch your hamster until you feel better and wash your hands after changing food and water.
