Question: Do hamsters have a good memory?

Pretty good yes, They can tell people apart that they know even when time has elapsed between visits, they can retrace paths in mazes they’ve taken before pretty easily, they remember where they’ve stored food stashes (important in winter!) , and also to a certain extent, they can be trained to respond in certain ways – ie coming when they’re called (success varies with this!)
