Our story
Welcome to Holistic Hamster!
Holistic Hamster is a small business in Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, established by Jenni (pronounced "Yen-nie") in June 2022. She has a fondness for all animals, especially hamsters, guinea pigs, birds & farm animals.
With the majority of South African pet shops providing unsafe & outdated hamster & guinea pig products/information to customers, Jenni saw a need to establish her business.
The vision for Holistic Hamster is to provide:
*Safe products for our community's hamster & guinea pig children
*Good quality, cost effective & natural products
*Donations to exotic animal rescues
*Further expand product catalogue

Buttercup
22 April 2022 - 12 June 2023
Buttercup is the main reason that Holistic Hamster was found. He was my first hamster that got me into proper hamster. Thank you, Buttercup, I miss you!
Speckles (2022)
7 September 2022 - 7 November 2022
Speckles inspired me more to advocate for proper hamster care & grow Holistic Hamster. He had a severe condition of arch back due to a small running wheel. I had a few months with him & he lived out his last days in the correct habitat setup he deserved.
