I think it is best to not kiss a Syrian hamster (correct name for Teddy Bear hamsters) on the mouth because every night they ingest their own feces for nutrition.
Also because of the obvious reason that they could bite/nip your mouth. And that would hurt a lot.
With that being said, when I ran a rodent rescue, I often kissed the gerbils. I'm a crazy woman! I never got sick though...
I'd still be careful.

Rodents are not picky about where they poop. Because of this they can have fecal material on them and you don't want that in your mouth. Also wash hands after holding.

i have one, and they are not at all dirty (ofcourse it depends on how you take care of them too), and it's real easy to clean them & their cage, compared to a dog or a cat. you'll really get to love them a lot, since they make such cute, furry & nice pets. and you what, even though my husband is not fond of hamsters, mine (her name's Mickey) made him change his mind, and now we both terribly miss her since we're both out of the country. and yes, we do kiss her all the time. good luck with your hamster, and i promise you, they will turn out to be very lovable animals :)

what's their existence expectancy? locate that out and then destroy it down into 4 ths... the 1st a million/4 is their infancy the 2d is their young toddlers, the 0.33 is grownup and the final is previous age. would desire to suck for flies huh?

not all of them are, but they are still rodents. humans can get sick from them because something in the rodents system will not harm the rat, but will harm other animals. different systems for different animals
