no unfortunately, hamsters are not as intelligent as rats… i’ve kept both and my hamsters could only just be taught to use a ‘hamster toilet’ in their cages, meanwhile the rats came when called, where taught to use a maze and even learned to cheat the maze by pushing parts over
the only things i’ve taught my rats to do are to climb up me, and one of my boys does “kiss kiss” when i say that he kisses me, and they also know when i click my tongue twice and say “no” that they need to back away from whatever they’re doing (like jumping off something). though that one they just seemed to get each time i did it without any treats, and of course, no negative reinforcement. they’re good boys 🙂
Fantastic! Your ratties are the best. I can’t wait to start teaching mine tricks. I just got them a hammock and now all they do is snooze and laze around…Gotta get them exercising 😀
Hi Abby, I would like to write about your rats in an ad campaign I’m doing with my non-profit the Rat Assistance & Teaching Society, where we are trying to improve the way pet shop employees see rats. Would you please contact me on Facebook.
Thanks! Debbie Ducommun
