I used to have Gerbils at one time. I like them because they are smart and friendly. Hamsters piss me off because they always bite, little bastards. Rats actually make very good pets, but I've never had one. The whole 'urine trail' thing grosses me out.
I have heard of numerous instances when retards have bought hamsters, never handle them, then complain when they get bitten while they are cleaning their cages out.
Once they know your scent they will not bite you, like most animals they can sense fear, and like most animals it pisses them off.
So, like OP is saying, it's very important to hand-tame them and not show fear when you send them up your ass.
