Other than it looking like the hammy is about to squirt a turd……. adorable and hilarious!

3 Jess 04.10.08 at 5:19 am

Ooo lil ham you’ll be the perfect shopping buddy!

4 ashagato 04.10.08 at 5:19 am

5 Annie J 04.10.08 at 5:30 am

Such a funny pictures!

1) Stuffing face – cute!
2) Barbie shoes – hilarious!
3) Caption – amazing!
4) Position of feetsies (i.e. looks like it should be pooping soon) – laughable!

The combination gives you…

REDONK! XD

It looks like puffeh is holding his breath and is about to explode from one end or the other.

The shoes are….well, I don’t get it, I’m a guy. If they had taps, I’d understand, but just pink doll shoes, I don’t understand.

9 Aesthetica 04.10.08 at 7:00 am

omg, like, i have to get some of those pink wedges. i wonder if there’s a matching pink hoodie.

10 Polly 04.10.08 at 7:21 am

At first I thought they were sneakers, then the double take, wedges! Soda came out the nose….thanks so very much.

11 taj 04.10.08 at 7:32 am

Wow, look at how high those heels are! Hammy is a bit of a hoochie! ;)

12 nicoli 04.10.08 at 8:38 am

I swear my barbie (as a child) had the same shoes!

13 nicoli 04.10.08 at 8:40 am

Also, I’ve been a fan of this site for a while, but does it say it’s possibly spam everytime?

14 Beth 04.10.08 at 9:00 am

I cannot DEAL with this hammie ham. I love the little tummy and the shoes! I hope the nom noms give little hammers enough energy to get to the next store!

15 Subhangi 04.10.08 at 9:47 am

I hate wedgies, but they look SOOOO adorable on Chmurka! SQUEEEEEEEEAL!

16 metsakins 04.10.08 at 11:32 am

Chmurka is saying, all right, putthe barbie shoes on me, but keep feeding me! (and thinking that a mall pretzel would be good about now)

17 bookmonstercats 04.10.08 at 11:37 am

Never mind the mall pretzel (whatever that is, I’m a Brit); it looks as though he’s got the mall actually in his pouch.

18 katiedid 04.10.08 at 11:42 am

I think he needs a size bigger… one of his toes is peaking out …

19 acelightning 04.10.08 at 11:48 am

I don’t think Chmurka is actually *wearing* doll shoes – it looks totally Photoshopped to me. But it’s *CUTE*, so who cares?

20 Holy Cuteness 04.10.08 at 12:05 pm

That is sooooo cute! :-) ) I have no other words for it…

21 wagthedogma 04.10.08 at 12:12 pm

Someone should tell Chmurka that wedges are SO last season. Now a strappy little espadrille would REALLY turn some heads on her next excursion to the mall!

22 gooeyctr 04.10.08 at 12:42 pm

Ohh … those shoes were made for walking!

23 A thinker 04.10.08 at 12:51 pm

At first I thought this was just another garden-variety upside-down hamster picture…then I saw the shoes…AHAHAHAHAHA

24 Kari 04.10.08 at 1:38 pm

Hey, that’s such a great idea — take a hamster with you when you go shopping! The ham can carry your purchases in their teeny little powsches!! Of course, they’d have to be teeny little purchases, but who cares? Ham’s so CUUUUUTE!!!

25 Babs 04.10.08 at 1:57 pm

Hmmm, I dunno about that pink. Ham looks more like an autumn to me.

26 blair 04.10.08 at 2:00 pm

pimp my ham?

27 chanpon 04.10.08 at 2:28 pm

Did she have to settle for the pretzel when she couldn’t find the Cinnabon stall instead?

The most redonkulous of pictures. :)

28 dailyhamster 04.10.08 at 2:44 pm

I bow before you, Pyza*! You are the master hammie photog. :-)

29 HURRY UP!!!!! 04.10.08 at 2:52 pm

I am too tall for those wedges. JEALOUS!!!!!
Hamstress gets all the good shoes.

30 Caelus 04.10.08 at 2:57 pm

too cute……i’m going to explode…..

31 jen 04.10.08 at 3:01 pm

insane. this is insanely ridiculously cute. CO are you trying to keel me!!!!???

32 Courtney 04.10.08 at 3:09 pm

I took a look at some more pictures of Chmurka and nearly passed out from the cute. How is it possible for one hamster to be so cute???

33 WannaSmile 04.10.08 at 3:22 pm

THAT, is just awesome!

34 kar 04.10.08 at 3:25 pm

they look almost like sneakers with that stitching up the sides.

Hurry the bottle, mama
It’s grapefruit wine
KICK OFF YOUR HIGH HEELED SNEAKERS
It’s party time

35 Jenny 04.10.08 at 3:40 pm

It looks photoshopped to me too, esp in the hand, just doesn’t look right at all lol (like the weight isn’t in it, and the black around the fur is added on) but the boots are amazing lol glad i wasnt the only one noticed the turtle head haha!!

36 Catsquatch 04.10.08 at 3:46 pm

:snert:

Those are my friends daughters princesses shoes.

We were wondering where they had disappeared to.

37 Marianne 04.10.08 at 4:00 pm

A pink hat and an umbrella would totally complete the look :)

38 Sharon Wilson 04.10.08 at 4:31 pm

HAHAHAHAHA–Barbie shoes on the ham!

39 Fluffernugget 04.10.08 at 4:41 pm

A Hammy Ho!

40 Red 04.10.08 at 6:11 pm
41 SallySue 04.10.08 at 8:02 pm

OMG…redonk!

42 Awen 04.10.08 at 8:09 pm

Chmurka is my very favorite hammy of all time, and her mother is one of the most talented photographers of little hammies I’ve ever seen.

One look at her flicker photo stream will put the Photoshop naysayers to shame.

43 CaroL 04.10.08 at 8:38 pm

I grow weary of this shopped-not shopped debate. If it were manipulated, does it make it any less cute? I think not!

44 binky-mama 04.10.08 at 8:41 pm

I dunno….hot pink wedges? A little slutty I teenk…how ’bout some nice ballet flats?

45 Cheryl 04.10.08 at 8:42 pm

I have to finally ask…what does *bleen* mean????

46 Argentee 04.10.08 at 8:43 pm

@bookmonstercats – In the US pretzels come in two main varieties… small, hard, brittle ones you buy by the bag at a grocery store, and the big, soft, chewy ones usually bought from a stand in the mall.

I’d buy this hammy all the pretzels she wanted if she’d come shopping with me! I hate going to the mall, but such a cute ham would make it worth it.

47 Argentee 04.10.08 at 8:51 pm

@ cheryl – I’m no expert, but… On some websites people rush to be the first to post… well, the word first with no actual content. This annoyed teh CO deity known as teho. As I understand it (And I’m a relative CO Newcomer) the offending word got replaced with the word bleen. And now some people just use bleen to save Teho the effort.

I now return to my regularly scheduled baby talk.

Whosa widdlebittyhammi princess? yes you are!

48 jen 04.10.08 at 9:02 pm

Maybe off-topic, but I think it’s ridiculous that some people consider heels and wedges “slutty.”

Adorable hammie, though. :)

49 Golden 04.10.08 at 9:35 pm

@ Blair: Pimp My Ham!!!!

God that’s funny.. Sorta like Stuff on my Cat..

50 Carrie 04.10.08 at 9:37 pm

OMG! We had a seriously close call with Chmurka :( poor thing.

Good thing she’s recovered enough to wear heels!

51 bookmonstercats 04.10.08 at 9:38 pm

@Argentee. Thanks for the explanation – who’d have thought?? We’ve started to incorporate “the mall” into our day-to-day language, instead of “shopping arcade”, but we haven’t really caught up with “pretzels” and certainly not differentiating them on the basis of where they’re bought.

52 catablob 04.10.08 at 10:20 pm

Oh my.
I think we could use a little, er, privacy tail here!

53 Pyza 04.10.08 at 10:43 pm

Hello, I am the author of the photo. I felt the need to explain the “photoshoped/not photoshopped” issue…
Chmurka really wore the shoes, they were not added in Photoshop. If you knew her, you’d know that during devouring Tofu, you can do almost *everything* to Chmurka ;)
But I did alter the photo in Photoshop a bit, I tried to make it more “glamour” in style, so that Chmurka would look like a real model ;)
Thank you for all your kind comments! :)

54 michii 04.10.08 at 11:05 pm

I can’t stop giggling…. good thing my coworkers aren’t around, they’d think I’d lost my mind..

55 JayP 04.10.08 at 11:27 pm

If someone thinks to photoshop pink high heeled shoes on a ham, isn’t that funny in itself?

Or maybe that ham is celebrating Spring with new shoes.

It’s hard to figure out what really is going on….

56 sunnymum 04.10.08 at 11:37 pm

Pyza, “Viva Chmurka” is one of the sweetest mementos created to honor the bond between human and animal companion! How wonderful that you cherish that beautiful little girl so much! I’m so happy for both of you. And, I love the shoes on her, they are adorable, not slutty at all!

57 Nastassia 04.10.08 at 11:57 pm

barbie shoes?! adoorrrr

58 tuckeverlasting 04.11.08 at 1:10 am

hahaha! luurrve it! oh so fashionable. I wonder if my dwarf hammy will wear a pair of wedges :)

…WOW I am seeing too much YELLLOW!!

59 harlemgrrl 04.11.08 at 3:29 am

CO and shoes, my two favorite things

60 Kar 04.11.08 at 4:00 am

ok, just when I was getting used to the idea of a hamster in heels.

She eats tofu? Made from beans with no dairy or cheese tofu?

She is a cutie though. Almost enough to make me want one. Those lil’l eyes and adorable nose are lethal.

61 Marie 04.11.08 at 6:26 am

People…

You crack me up! I swear! ;D

62 binky-mama 04.11.08 at 8:31 am

um….dewds I was just kidding with “slutty” wedges (scampers off to see if red stilettos will fit on kitty)

63 Kathy C 04.11.08 at 2:14 pm

I agree with Awen – Chmurka is the all time cutest floofy hammie ever! (Even cuter than mine :P )

64 Annie 04.11.08 at 2:58 pm

Hamster + Barbie Shoes = ham fashion!!!

65 ariel 04.12.08 at 9:38 pm

hahahahahahahahahahaha
Very cute :)
