Hello again Tina! The scientific name for this hamster is not rodent but Mesocricetus auratus.

Rodent is the animal order to which it belongs. Scientific names are made of two latin names, and you can learn about how they work here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_no...
I will also move this spotting to the Pets category for you.
