Can dwarf hamsters and mice get along in the same cage?

i have two little mice, and i've been wanting a dwarf hamster. how do you think that will work out?Can dwarf hamsters and mice get along in the same cage?
NO! They will not get along. Dwarf hamsters don't always get along with other dwarf hamsters. They are territorial and aggressive.


If you want to get one you have to get another cage to keep it in. Please don't rely on a cage divider, rodents are smarter than people give them credit for, I would almost guarantee that would not work!


If you have to chose one to have, personally I say mice.


They tend to enjoy human interaction once hey get used to it. Whereas hamsters will tolerate it, at best.Can dwarf hamsters and mice get along in the same cage?
Nonononononononono! Do not do that. Big mistake. Other rodents tend to just be natural enemies. For example, my large rat, Sinuhe just walked right up to my baby bird and killed her w/out a single thought. A mouse and dwarf hamster are probably about the same ratio. Keep your mice alive! :)
No they can not. My friends dwarf hamster is territorial and never likes to have other animals along with him. If i may suggest, you should get a cage divider so they aren't near and won't hurt each other. Hope this advise works!! :P
No!! Dwarf hamsters are very territorial and aggressive, especially the females. No rodent should ever be inter-houses with another breed of rodent. One may end up getting so severely hurt they die.
