I know what you're thinking, but that's not a big furry mouse. It's something called a hamster, and it lives in a glass box in my house. My people call it "Hammy." I know, they aren't very original with names.
My housemate Missy told me that before I was around, our people had two little hamsters. One died and one got out -- Missy ate it. Whenever Hammy is out I'm not allowed to get too close, and Missy doesn't seem to care about this one -- maybe because it is fat and furry like her.

ReplyDeleteOur mom and dad had hamsters before we came around. They look like they'd be fun to play with!
Wow, that's a tempting roommate! I'd be very tempted to play with it also!

ReplyDeleteHe certainly does look a wee bit nommy....
ReplyDeleteHamsters are so cute! Just be sure not to eat it, no matter how tempting it is!
ReplyDeleteHe is very furry. Maybe Missy didn't like the taste of the last one either?
ReplyDeleteHammy is very cute. I think I would like one for a pet. I have only ever had Sea Monkeys and Jumping Beans. And a pet rock.
ReplyDeleteohhh dear BooBoo ...be patient! He is really cute and can be your friend...a distant friend!

Eeeeeeeeeeeek! A mouse! Just kitten. mewmewmew
ReplyDeleteHammy is very sweet, but I don't think he's got a very good name -- too tempting for kitties. My Dante just loves pieces of ham, and I'm always asking him if he'd like some "hammies", so Hammy would be in real danger in my house. I sure hope Hammy continues to come to no harm.
ReplyDeleteHammy is very sweet. Is he made of ham? Just asking, that's all!
ReplyDeleteHmm, those last two comments have me thinking. Could he be made of ham? I like ham too. My people gave me some just last night.
ReplyDeleteHammy is sooo cute. We had a hamster once too. He gets old and died.
ReplyDeleteNow we have Degus but we are not allowed to catch and eat them...
Oh we don't think we could ever have a Hammy in our house...fat and furry or not!
ReplyDeleteWow! what a lovely fat juicy looking mousie! Oh, err, I mean what a cute little hamster.
ReplyDeleteSheesh! Did I really say that out loud?
