IN THIS week’s edition of the Echo pet’s page, we are shining a bright spotlight on five adorable pets that always entertain and continue to show their love towards their owners.

Today we say a big hello to a tiny pocket rocket hamster, a cat and dog both rescued from Romania and an adorable Chorkie in his bright yellow raincoat.

Bournemouth Echo: PANCAKE is a pedigree dwarf hamster who loves her wheel, falls asleep in her owner's hand and is pictured here sitting in a teacup.

Abigail Pritchard, from Poole, said: “Pancake loves to eat red millet and fall asleep in my hands. In this instance, she was more than happy exploring a teacup.

“My favourite thing about Pancake is how adorable her big eyes are compared to her little body, and how fast she can run.

“When Pancake runs on her wheel, she is so fast you can't even see her legs, it's like she's hovering!”

Bournemouth Echo: One in a million
