Hamster Care Index 21st Century


The hamster care books in this index date from the 21st Century and they are arranged in order of publication, starting with the most recent. The publication dates I have used are the dates of the copies of the books which I own - several popular titles have been reprinted repeatedly and so your copy may have a different publication date or cover image (I have tried to indicate this in the book information where it is especially long-term or potentially confusing). I am hoping that this page and the associated indexes covering the 1940s, 50s, 60s and 70s and the 1980s and 90s can be gradually built into one of the most definitive internet resources about the wide variety of english-language hardcopy hamster care books that are available to the modern pet owner.

Other pages on this website show my still-growing collections of young children's and older children's fiction books featuring hamsters and my much smaller set of scientific and veterinarian hamster-specific books. On the main library page I also summarise my "Top 5" hamster care book choices for different audiences, based on the selection below.

For anyone interested in starting their own hamster book collection, I would recommend Abe Books as one of the best places to find out of print titles, whilst EBay and Amazon are also good sources of both cheap second-hand books and new publications.
