How long do "teddy bear" hamsters usually live?

Answers:
Most say between 2-4 years but they can live a lot longer. My kids had one that was with us for 5 years. He was well taken care of and feed lots of veggies on top of the hamster food ( he loved bok choy). He was even a class pet for my daughters whole 3rd grade year. Anything that is well taken care of and loved can last longer than normal life span. TLC and your off to a good start!

teddy bear hampsters usually dont live very long but the most i know of them living is up to 3 or 4 years. if they are well taken care of. but they are highly septable to diseases so whenever your pet hampster dies its because of a disease that you can not control. its not your fault

Most reference books say they live 2-2 1/2 years, but my previous one lived for 3 1/2.
