Looking at this pic is like snuggling vicariously; I’m warmer already on this rainy day!

6 Shelby 04.25.07 at 1:13 pm

Oh gosh I want to snorgle their little flopsy earsicles and kiss their floofy cheeks. I may melt into a puddle here at my desk. Definitely NSFW.

7 Paula 04.25.07 at 1:14 pm

Anyone else seein’ Hams and Egg?

8 ceejoe 04.25.07 at 1:19 pm

and those names are adorabubble!!
butterbean reminds me…
I once had a litter of three tiny all-black foster kittens, and I called them my little black beans. I thought about naming them Navy, Lima, and Jelly…
but I chickened out and went with Andrew, Amelia, and Aleksandra.

9 Redzilla 04.25.07 at 1:35 pm

Oh, to be back in bed with some big, soft floofiness to cuddle me.

10 pjk 04.25.07 at 1:35 pm

Agree, am so seeing ham and eggs. Actually, I thought that was an egg yolk before my brain interpreted the wheel properly!

11 ThreeCatNight 04.25.07 at 1:40 pm

Butterbean: “Giggle, giggle!”

19 Suzanne 04.25.07 at 1:55 pm

My train hit someone this morning (amazingly she survived)…this is exactly what I needed to get my attitude back in a happy place.

20 rabble 04.25.07 at 1:58 pm

Sqweeeeeee!

21 Theo 04.25.07 at 2:07 pm

Paula — yep, sunny side up.

22 rpennefe 04.25.07 at 2:14 pm

I’d apologize for the following…but then, I’m not really that sorry:

My dog, Butter, likes to roam.
One day Butter left his home.
He came back, quite unclean.
Where, oh where, has Butterbean?

Butterbean,
Butterbean,
Where, oh where, has Butterbean?

23 Theo 04.25.07 at 2:17 pm

My kid Human, loves to roam…

24 maymee 04.25.07 at 2:19 pm

No no no…naming them after food makes me want to stuff them in my mouf EVEN MORE.

25 Leilani 04.25.07 at 2:19 pm

OMG! “Butterbean”! Ok, now we need a category for the Cutest Names In The World, and I hereby nominate “Butterbean” as being the #1 cutest name.

26 Claire 04.25.07 at 2:23 pm

maymee, you had me at No no no….

27 you guys r silly 04.25.07 at 2:23 pm

And look at little Stuffy McCheekersons in the front position there — him’s liddle cheekies are JAMMED full of yummy goodies, so that the minute they wakey-wakey, he’ll instantly have something to snack on!
&:o)

28 Nadine 04.25.07 at 2:26 pm

The one on the backside of the ’spoon’ looks like he is smiling… A very happy satisfied hamster!

29 M. 04.25.07 at 2:29 pm

SPLODE. I can’t handle this much cute in the morning.

30 Kathy C 04.25.07 at 2:29 pm

Hammies! Spooning hammies in da wheel! Spreading their hammy happiness to all of us!*squeal*

31 trinity67 04.25.07 at 2:31 pm

OH MY GOD that is so adorable I laughed and clapped my hands with joy. Meatball and Butterbean are my heroes.

32 luvinmalssomuch 04.25.07 at 2:32 pm

Beyond precious. Hamster love.

33 Pamela 04.25.07 at 2:40 pm

Awe, there seems to be a puddle under my desk. I think I melted too. Beautiful Meg and sender-inner Grace.

34 you guys r silly 04.25.07 at 2:52 pm

36 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 04.25.07 at 3:04 pm

Where are the post coital cigarettes ;)

37 Lisa 04.25.07 at 3:18 pm

Ahhhh the happiness on their faces.

38 shelle 04.25.07 at 3:24 pm

Hammie lovin’
Had me a blast
Hammie spoonin’
Happened so fast…

Hammie days drifted away but oh! those hammie nights!

I *love* this site!

39 zeldapie 04.25.07 at 3:26 pm

Cutest g.d. picture yet of hammies. Oh. My. GAWD.

40 amy 04.25.07 at 4:01 pm

All you need is a third and you’ve got a “ham” sandwich. HAH

41 pistache268 04.25.07 at 4:01 pm

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

42 anneelizmary 04.25.07 at 4:05 pm

Well, like everyone else I am having a day that SUUUUXXXX, so the little hammies are making me happy.

I’m shielding the screen from my big fat kitties; they don’t need to get any ideas.

43 Stephers 04.25.07 at 4:42 pm

I was def. thinking hams & giant egg too.
And darnit Shelle, I’m gonna have that stuck in my head all day now. “Ooh, tell me more, tell me more….” :P

44 A thinker 04.25.07 at 4:44 pm

Tewtally cutular.

Not only do hams spoon, if you have three or more of them, they sleep in little piles. The bottom ham never seems to get squashed or suffocated, tho’ it does mess up his hair considerably.

45 Lioness 04.25.07 at 5:00 pm

That would make the sweetest Valentines Day or I Love You card…awwwwwww love!

46 Kritter 04.25.07 at 5:11 pm

They look so content! And Amy – “Ham sandwich?” GOOD ONE!

47 Celeste 04.25.07 at 6:28 pm

Hehe, my hammies do that all the time. Sometimes they’re sitting up like that, or sometimes in a little pile, or sometimes side by side lying down.. so cute. =)

48 Pamela 04.25.07 at 7:36 pm

AAWWW!!! I really wished this pic could be made into a desktop background…Although, I wouldn’t be able to get any work done because I would be squeelin’ everytime I saw my desktop..LOL.

49 hrh.squeak 04.25.07 at 7:45 pm

Is that hammie Grinnin in Hims Sleep? Sooo Kyute!!!

50 cutebabyfix.com 04.25.07 at 7:46 pm

Ok- we must rememdy the earworms. I cannot go through the rest of this day with grease in mah head. Hows about some b52’s for all you discriminating cuteologists every where?

Yeah, if you go down to athens, g-a
And you’re driving in your car
You won’t get very far before
You hear people shoutin’ out!
What’s that?
Butterbean! yeah!
Gramps and grannies
Kids in their teens
Junkyard dogs and campus queens
Yeah, everybody likes butterbeans

Don’t you wait, don’t you linger
Butterbean don’t slip through my fingers

51 Del 04.25.07 at 8:45 pm

Something inside me just went and sort of…can’t explain it. Must’ve been my heart and soul, both.

52 shelsy penman 04.25.07 at 9:30 pm

i like dis picture sooo much and i think its so cute and I LOVE IT!…

53 Elizabeth 04.25.07 at 11:17 pm

do hamsters eat millet? i’ve only ever given my cockatiels millet and never tried it with my hammie. hmmm, interesting.

54 BBM 04.25.07 at 11:34 pm

Soooo comfy, I think I’ll just take a little zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

55 thepetmuseum 04.26.07 at 2:47 am

Meatball. Butterbean. Mmmmmmmm. I want for to nap just looking at their snuglitude.

56 Darcy 04.26.07 at 3:04 am

ZOMFGUBERCUTEWOW

57 Subhangi 04.26.07 at 3:34 am

Spooning hammies!!!! Awwwwwwwwww.

58 R. Moore 04.26.07 at 4:12 am

I, personally, prefer the term “canoodling.” Though that could mean flirting, too. Spooning implies more touchy-feely love :)

Canoodling couples can’t cry.

59 Snorga 04.26.07 at 6:28 am

That is incredibly cute! In fact, it was this website that persuaded me to get a hammie, back with the athletic hamster post.

I guess that’s one of the big advantages of having dwarf hamsters; you can have more than one and they do adorable stuff together. I have a Syrian, so of course he lives by himself. He’s still pretty entertaining though! Check him out:

60 Shannon L. 04.26.07 at 7:06 am

OMG!!

Sherioushly. How can real creatures look like that. They’re like little fluffy cartoons, or something.

61 PoshPaws 04.26.07 at 10:49 am

LOL The feets!! The feets!! Butterbean’s little turned up feets and .. ahem .. other bits .. ~thud~ Too much!!

62 Book Kitten 04.26.07 at 1:46 pm

It’s like a fried egg with a side of hamster hashbrowns!

63 Lisa D 04.27.07 at 1:08 am

OMG!!!!

Does anyone else want in on the spoon action!?

64 Tor 04.27.07 at 10:55 pm

Anyone else hearing the B-52s??

65 Theo 04.27.07 at 11:07 pm

WHOLE SHACK SHIMMY!
Er… nope. Don’t hear a thing.

66 Tor 04.28.07 at 1:54 am
