Welcome to Hamster Business Stars šŸ¹āœØ

A series where I share small hamster businesses and artists I love supporting šŸ’›


Todayā€™s spotlight: Hamsty Lab run by neuroscientist and animal advocate Gloria.

šŸ›ļø About the Business


Started in 2025, Hamsty Lab not only sells amazing and cute hamster art, but Gloria also raises awareness with her science backed social media posts and artwork.


  • Hand-drawn style infographic showing a recommended hamster enclosure setup in a 100 Ɨ 50 cm tank, including a wheel, multi-chamber hide, water bowl, sand bath, platforms, tunnel, sprays, chews, forage materials, deep bedding, and three hides.
  • Digital art educational graphic titled ā€œHow does your hamster see the world?ā€ showing a cartoon hamster with a magnifying glass, a diagram of a hamster eye, and illustrations representing retinal cells involved in vision.
  • Digital art title graphic reading ā€œDo Rodents Know They Exist?ā€ with an illustrated rodent and thought bubble, introducing a discussion of rodent self-awareness.

Just a small example of some of Hamsty Labs social media infographics

She also does a lot for hamster rescues too. For example, she currently has the 'Haunted Graveyard collection' where 1/3 of all funds raised goes to Indigo Stained Hearts rescue.


šŸ’› Why I Love This Shop


A lot of love, creativity and thoughtfulness goes into whatever Gloria is creating, and the hamsters are cute too.


šŸ“ø My Experience


I bought some of her educational and cute Xmas hamster stickers. There were so many that I kept some for myself and friends and did a giveaway with some too.


The items arrived promptly and well packaged.
