What kind of hamster do i have?
I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of hamster i have, quite a few people have told me she looks unique but is she really all that different?
Heres some pics of her...

Someone suggested possibly a Chinese/Syrian cross, is that even possible?
You're all probably right though, just an unusual Syrian!
In response to Kaylee N...
The pet shop was useless, they just simply sold hamsters, they did not specify on breed, as they did not provide me with information on the breed of hamsters i have to find my answers elsewhere. As this is a place for asking questions i saw no harm in asking people with a better knowlegde of hamster breeds then myself in an attempt to find answers.

I'm guessing it's a Syrian. She does look unique because he almost has the face of a rat. She's also is long and slender. Very cute! But she is obviously not a Dwarf, Chinese, or Russian, so you hamster is a Syrian.

there are two different kinds of hamsters, Syrian, and Dwarf, all those name such as Black bear, are just fancy names for their kind. It's your decision what kind to get. What ever one is nice, and takes your heart. Don't listen when people say, oh dwarfs are all mean and bite, because thats fake, and I have had dwarf hamsters and they are loving and friendly. Don't get me wrong, so are Syrian hamsters, that is the kind of hamster i have right now. It depends really, do you want a large hamster? Do you want a small hamster? What color? What gender? You need to ask yourself these questions, then go to the place you are getting your hamster, and look for the PERFECT hamster. That's what I did and now I have a new best friend, a black bear Syrian hamster, named Clowie.

Its defenatly a syrian. If you dont think so then ask a local vet or get a book on types of hamsters. Also would'nt you know what hamster you bought.

She looks like a Panda Bear hamster. My brother has one. He's got the same shape, only he's all black with white paws and a white streak going down his face.
