CHINESE DWARF HAMSTERS AS PETS
The Chinese hamster makes a good pet for adults and children. Their needs are few and they are easy to care for.
Chinese hamsters, though usually sweet with people, they can fight with each other. We recommend that you keep them individually. The Chinese hamster is generally active both during the day and at night. They are quite happy to come out during the day for some playtime, as long as they get their beauty sleep in as well. With proper care a Chinese hamster will usually live 2-3 years.

The Chinese Dwarf hamster usually lives from 2 to 3 years in a cage, but it varies whether it's a female or a male.
I did a little research for you, hope this helps!

On average, they live 2-3 years. But if good care is given, they can live much longer than that.
