Our Hamster Muffin Hamsters are awesome! My daughter and I enjoy playing with our Syrian hamster! Her name is Muffin. Her favourite food is spinach but it makes her pee stink. She also likes to eat apples, carrots, cucumbers, strawberries and blueberries. She enjoys running free around the house when we let her. Muffin also sleeps a lot. She is nocturnal which means she is awake at night and sleeps during the day. Do you have a hamster? Muffin
