You will bring me sunflower seeds.

I will never run in the hamster ball again."

    Nice lighting effect. Reminds me of the eerie staring eyes of Boris Karloff as Ardath Bay in “The Mummy.”

    Sorry there are no animals in this photo. We did our best to have paws, however!

    I love it! I need to get this photographer over to take pictures of me in a more flattering light!

    You will rename this town “Hamsterdam”.

  15. Natalie says:

    This is too cute! I do have a serious question, though. I don’t use Flickr and I don’t really get it, but I clicked on Paunchie’s link and was reviewing the comments on the Halloween pic. Those comments that say “your picture has been chosen to join [whatever] group” – those are spam, yes? Just wondering… thanks!

    Hey, hammies love the hamster ball! Mine always do, anyway.

    “You will allow me to star in a film directed by Lars von Trier….”

    pink aura ftw
