We have finally decided on a name for our new hamster: Alysia Summer Roborovsky. Alysia from the greek name meaning posessive. Summer was the original owners name for her, which we used until we could decide on a new name. Roborovski is the breed of hamster. !!-- more -->

We are trying to introduce her to Zac and Gel by taking them out to play together and also by having them in a 'split cage'. This has Zac and Gel in one side and Alysia in the other, with a wire mesh between them. This allows them to get used to each other's smell, which should hopefully reduce the chance of fighting when they are put together.
