Your hamster may gather them and take them to its hiding place, in which case the strands of yarn will lead you to the hiding spot.
Let them lead the way: Tie long strands of yarn to some peanuts in the shell. 
If your lost hamster comes out, you may be able to locate it by the noise made as it walks across the foil or cellophane. Listen for movement: In the evening, try placing tinfoil or crinkly cellophane on the floor (concentrate on possible hideouts, doorways, and around the cage or food), turn out all the lights and sit quietly.Check for footprints to see where your hamster is traveling at night.
Similarly, sprinkle some flour across doorways and in front of any suspected hiding spots (like spaces under the cupboards or holes in the wall, as noted on your search). A trail of little white footprints may lead to a hamster's hiding place.
Track their movements: Sprinkle a little flour or cornstarch on the floor around the piles of seeds. If any seeds disappear from a room that will give you a better general idea of where your lost hamster is hiding (unless you have any wild mice that are stealing your bait). Hamsters love seeds: Place a small, pre-counted pile of sunflower seeds on the floor in each room. Try looking at night: Remember that hamsters are nocturnal so they will probably only move about at night. Look for holes or spaces under cupboards or openings that could lead into the walls: Make a note of these for later if you don't find your hamster right away. Look under home fixtures: Check behind/under the water heater (or anywhere else where it might be warm and dark). Don't forget to look underneath everything: Check the undersides and backs of appliances for holes that your lost hamster could have climbed into. Look inside any backpacks, purses, other bags, and shoes. Look in all boxes: Check inside any boxes you have around the house including tissue boxes. Check the underside of furniture and beds for any holes through which a hamster could climb inside. Look inside cabinets, drawers, shelves, and bookcases: Don't forget to look inside, behind, and under items stored in these places. Be thorough: Check behind and under furniture, as well as down the sides and backs of sofas, under cushions, etc. Begin at the center: Start your search for your hamster near their cage and move away from there. This will also create new smells in the cage and not only the smell of the bedding and his urine, this is what will stimulate his sense of smell too.įresh food and veggies, you should not hide them in his bedding to avoid mold, you can create skewers with pieces of vegetables and peanuts, for example, you will then hang these skewers to create an occupation for your hamster and encourage him to go up and eat them.
