dear fish eye no miko:
about an hour ago i was buying cat food and your name popped into my head for no reason, and i thought, i wonder where the name “fish eye no miko” came from? and now you just beat me to the bleen!
that’s kinda weird…

5 Carol 05.15.08 at 12:36 am

Major beady-eye factor-age!

6 SarahP 05.15.08 at 1:49 pm

Is Sapphire doing a Nosferatu the vampire impression, pretending that nut is a pair of huge incisors?

7 Katie Kat 05.15.08 at 1:50 pm

OH! The little fuzzy paws… and beadular eyes… OH! Are there kisses tiny enough to place on such cuteness?

8 Lone 05.15.08 at 1:56 pm

All your lucky charms are belong to me! Or kibble! or whatever it is that lays beneath my blobular glare! *nom

Who is safe from these 4 ounces of Killer Floof? No one, I tell you! We are all caught in those tweeny weeny Ham Hands from Hell! What a way to go.

I never realized that little Mouses had so many whiskers!!! Look at all those little whiskerages!! I like to play with my Kitties whisker, though I don’t do it often ’cause I know they don’t like it… I’d be feeling these little guy’s whiskers for sure!!!!

11 Winni-Pig 05.15.08 at 2:05 pm

Was this photo put through the FLUFF FILTER????

I am suspicious!

12 brinnann 05.15.08 at 2:05 pm

Is this a gerbil or a hammie? I dunno the difference. A gammie? Herbil? Harbl? Whu?

Oh, and teensy pawses? SQUEEEEE!

13 Metz 05.15.08 at 2:11 pm

14 Kate 05.15.08 at 2:27 pm

He is so tiny compared to his food!

15 Kate 05.15.08 at 2:28 pm

…..or rather, his food looks GINORMOUS when he is sitting upon it.

16 EaterofShades 05.15.08 at 3:00 pm

such a hungry little fuzz-ball

17 Kricket 05.15.08 at 3:05 pm

Ok, just geeked out… love the name Sapphire because it reminds me of the show “Sapphire and Steel,” my current scifi favorite.

And LITTLE FUZZY FINGERS OMG.

18 Noelle 05.15.08 at 3:10 pm

OMG, little hammie just solved my problem. I’ve been trying yo find a way to stop people from eating my food. It never occured to me to sit it in. Thanks cute little hammie!

19 Noelle 05.15.08 at 3:11 pm

Oops, “sit in it” not “sit it in”. Sorry brain not functioning well this morning. Too overwhelmed by cute!

20 Noelle 05.15.08 at 3:12 pm

Oops, part two…should be “trying to” not “trying yo”. I think I’ll just go home and go back to bed!

21 Hon Glad 05.15.08 at 3:32 pm

To eat is neat.

22 metsakins 05.15.08 at 3:38 pm

Yes Sapphire owns my soul and that bunneh and several other animals including Miss Huggums and Sol

23 cheesybird 05.15.08 at 3:40 pm

Ska-weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

24 jules 05.15.08 at 3:56 pm

Squeeee! I respectfully demand a COXCU of the teeny paws!

25 bookmonstercats 05.15.08 at 3:58 pm

I yam owned.

26 Deanna 05.15.08 at 4:05 pm

Where is its nose???

27 Clare2 05.15.08 at 4:40 pm

Since my birthstone is sapphire, can I have one of THOSE? Oh, rats (or gerbils, or hammies, or what have you), the rental management nasties have a “no pets” rule around here. Sigh. Another reason to LOVE CO!! Thanks everybody!

28 Joy 05.15.08 at 4:50 pm

This is a either a Russian or Siberian dwarf hamster, but it’s a very cute and young dwarf hamster. Perfect for apt living. They don’t require a huge cage and I’ve actually travelled with my dwarf hammies. Only about 3-4″ long, just perfect for enjoying and so soft.

29 Babs 05.15.08 at 4:58 pm

Beeeeeeeeeeep! Man, those fuzzeh fingies are way too prosh.

30 berthaservant 05.15.08 at 5:31 pm

What a great pic…the fuzziness on the paws is amaaaazing…..

31 fish eye no miko 05.15.08 at 5:57 pm

ashagato: Ah… MY name… Well, “miko” is Japanese for “priestess” and “no” is a possessive, so it means “Fish Eye’s Priestess” Fish Eye is a character from the anime _Sailor Moon_. It’s really just a way of saying I’m a fan of the character. ^_^

32 brinnann 05.15.08 at 7:04 pm

FINALLY, someone asked. I’ve always wondered what “fish eye no miko” meant, but was afraid to offend by asking.

33 chanpon 05.15.08 at 7:18 pm

I lurv his little pink furry paws grasping the seed.

34 Riikka K. 05.15.08 at 8:06 pm

Aww. :D She made it here! Her name is actually Pirjo and her colour is Sapphire. ;) She’s a Russian Dwarf Hamster, now 4 months old. :D

35 nismo 05.15.08 at 8:17 pm

Probably the only thing she won’t hoard are alfalfa pellets. Every hamster I’ve owned never eat those things.

36 binky-mama 05.15.08 at 8:40 pm

I’m suddenly craving granola….

37 NutherDeb 05.15.08 at 11:14 pm

WOW!! Rules of cuteness #8, 11, 14, 19 and probably more, ALL IN ONE adorable little hammie!!

38 Annie J 05.15.08 at 11:20 pm

AHN! It’s so cute it burns! XD

39 ashagato 05.16.08 at 2:00 am

thanks, fish eye no miko!
your interesting explanation lives up to the intrigue :)

40 Totalee Puppy 05.16.08 at 3:22 am

One baggie of airline peanuts lasts little hamster a long time…At last, the perfect pet for those tiny snacks…Let’s order bottled water, too…
AAAAW, little pink paws…

41 Subhangi 05.16.08 at 4:47 am

GEEEP!

I want whatever he’s having!!!

42 Raemie L. 05.16.08 at 7:00 am

*wham*
That was the sound of me being knocked back by teh Qte.

43 Theo 05.16.08 at 1:45 pm

44 peep 05.16.08 at 5:46 pm

This is how I want to die:
Laying on a soft blanket, with about 6000 of these guys running and bopping all over me…oh, and I’m wearing a suit covered with hammie treats.
