My cabin just doesn't feel the same without my little space hamster friend to keep me company. I've heard that if you bought the space hamster in Mass Effect 2 and import your save into Mass Effect 3, the little guy can be found running around the Normandy somewhere. It sounds too good to be true.
How do I get my lost space hamster back?
Sub-questions:
- If I didn't import my save from Mass Effect 2, is there still a way to get the space hamster in Mass Effect 3?
- Does he need to be taken care of like my fish?
- Does having the space hamster change anything in this game (i.e. give rewards, change the story slightly, etc.)?

You can totally find your space hamster, specifically in the engineering deck:
It would appear that the answer to your sub-questions is "No" for all three:
- This wiki entry says you need the ME2 save
- This video shows some more interaction with the hamster towards the end and I don't see anything indicating you can do more than hear him squeak.
