March 24th, 2006My heart went boum
I’ve always wanted a hamster when I was in Mauritius but I had cats at home, so I deemed it wiser not to buy hamsters. I saw a man selling hamsters and rabbits near Carrefour the other day and it was love at first sight when I saw the hamsters. 
I couldn’t resist.They are so cute, tiny and fast.
Now I need to get a bigger cage for them. I’ve seen a cute one on ebay which comes with a slide and a wheel. So cute. We aren’t allowed to keep pets such as cats or dogs in the dorm but the hamsters are so small and if kept in the cage, they won’t be running around, getting in the way of other people. They don’t make much noise either. They only squeak once in a while, especially when they seem to be ‘playing around’. The other day, I saw one of the hamsters on top of the other. hmmm
I brought them to class the other day and my classmates played with them. My other friends also played with the hamsters. Unfortunately, one of the hamsters defecated on one of my friend’s hand. It was a small,black and dry-looking ‘pellet’. lol

Welcome to the hamster world
haha so cute! it seems that everyone here is getting a pet now! Have a friend who just bought a kitten. hehe
those pets reproduce like hell! Always keep the cage tightly shut, otherwise they might run and seek warm refuge under your fridge.
hahah, reminds me when i flushed one of the hamsters away lol.
Oh hamsters!!! I never reared any. Prefer cats but I’m allergic to their fur.
what! u flushed down a hamster down the ‘hole’? ..
mm..hamtaros! long ones too..neat.
i saw a couple the other day. some weird-named russian breed…R–ovski…stg like that. cute things..ive got 2 at home:) my sis bought em, and i havent seen em..haha.
post pics of them!
Awww.. I used to have loads of them. If they are a guy and a girl, I’m almost sure they’ll reproduce soon. And by then, you’ll be giving them away because they’re just way too many. =p
thanks.
really? I wanted a kitten at first but we aren’t allowed to keep kittens in the dorm, unless we do it secretly….which is kinda difficult because the kitten would meow.
flushed one of the hamsters away? what do you mean? flush it down the toilet or what?
awww… what a pity. Maybe you can try hamsters instead then.
i’ll post pics soon.
Aww congrats ^^
Hamsters are so cute
