What should I do if my hamster is afraid of people?

Methods for dealing with hamsters that are afraid of people:
1. Change to a comfortable environment. Hamsters are unfamiliar with the environment and will feel uncomfortable staying there. If they cannot adapt to the environment, they will become restless and will naturally not get close to humans.
2. Strengthen interaction. If the hamster is not close to the owner, it is not familiar with the owner. At this time, you need to pay more attention to interacting with them, establish a trust relationship first, and let them gradually become familiar with you.
3. Choose a dark environment. Hamsters will become nervous and scared in bright environments, so when interacting with small hamsters, try to play with them in dark places.
4. Pet the hamster regularly. At the beginning, you should wear gloves and gently stroke the hamster's back. Never bare your hands. Wait until it is no longer afraid of you, then take off the gloves and train it to crawl onto your hand to play.
5. Avoid smell on your hands. Hamsters are solitary animals. It is best not to have the smell of other hamsters on the owner's hands, otherwise the hamster will hate the owner.
