  3. Jimbeaux says:

    Thank you plastic roof pieces! *smirk*
    They look so tie-tie after a long day. Good thing mom’s letting them have that sleep-over!
    (And maybe tomorrow they can have some lunchabuls?)

  4. biscuithead says:

    Oh for crying out loud!
    Sneef?!
    The shnozzle the schnozzle twitched!
    Zzzz Central?!
    SO tired!

    You’re trying to do my head in, aren’t you!
    Dang, I just love CO.

  5. Lizzy says:

    Ham Huddle!! I can joinz? Pwetty pwease?

  6. Tori says:

    AHHH! Robos!! All I want to do is have like six of them in my hands at one time. Only I know they’re the hamster equivalent of hummingbirds so they’d prolly be outta there in two seconds and escaping to sweet sweet freedom.

  7. Lula Mae says:

    D’aaaawwwwwwwwwwwwww!
    The best way to go to sleep, counting hammeehs!

  8. platedlizard says:

    I love their black beady little eyes.

  9. I see trouble coming – if they are raised in an aquarium they will grow up thinking they are fish.

  10. fish eye no miko says:

    Oh, God.. The cute.. I can’t STAND EEET! SQUEEEE*BOOM!*

  11. lauraewaddell says:

    Robo hams are the best hams <3

  12. Rachael says:

    “Eat your heart out, Maru.” I just spewed coffee out my nose and all over my keyboard. The little guy on the far right in the plastic roof pic… I think he’s looking right into my soul. Holy cannoli, I’m in love! <3

  13. Gledwood says:

    o how cute! I used to have a small swarm of roborovskis… now just one is left which is really sad. I keep meaning to get more babies but I don’t know…

  14. Andi from NC says:

    I was feeling a little woozie after the “first snorf” picture, but I pulled myself together. All of a sudden BOOM – “the first sleep over” – it sent me over the edge…

  15. Von Zeppelin says:

    It looks like they are warmly protected by wads of the stuff my dog rips out of sofa cushions. I thought he was just being stupid and horrible, but apparently he was just preparing hamster insulation.

  16. Lerrinus says:

    eek squeek, they’re cute! Awwwwwwww! :-D

  17. drnmode says:

    Look at those little, fuzzy faces!

    !!!!!

  18. debg says:

    Why does their wheel have a fried egg inside?

  19. AmyJ says:

    Is there room for me in there?

    (squeezes into hammie pile and sighs contentedly)

  20. crazycurlygirl says:

    *shiver* *shake* KAPLOWIE!!!

  21. Courtney S. says:

    Are these bebehs hammies or gerbils? Not that it matters; anerabuhls either way!

  22. tracylee says:

    awwww I wanna cuddle in, too!
    .

    and then ohhh-so-quietly and sneakily stuff ‘em (one by one) into my mouf. tee hee !

    as someone asked earlier, why do we always want to nibble cute things??! must be some evolutionary thing?

  23. Jezebel says:

    Bite size noms! I think I can fit them all in my mouf!

  24. Kerri says:

    Awwwww…they are so widdle and precious! I love their teeny tiny little tailsicles…:)

  25. kibblenibble says:

    Peenk muzzlepowsche in first pic keelt me daid. Daid, I said.

  26. nismo says:

    No way. While that is one heck of a splayed haunch, Maru is, and always will be, the king of the 90-degree splayed haunch.

  27. MollyMouser says:

    SQUEEEEEEEEE!!!!

  28. chanpon says:

    Why do I have an urge to pop ‘em all into my mouf when I see a bunch of baby hams all huddled together?

  29. Ana Carolina says:

    Ouuuummmmmmmmmmmmmm veryy cuteeee!!! i want all of them

  30. Adrienne says:

    Soooo cute!

  31. LS says:

    @chanpon – Is that a problem?

  32. Wend says:

    I have to say, I still think Maru reigns undisputed champion of the 90 degree hanch sprawl; other than that this post is 100% anerabuhls. Love Robo hams. Have one named Zip right now… she lives up to her name on a regular basis. Sooo cute.

  33. Kate says:

    Aren’t those gerbils?

  34. CW says:

    soooo cute. having a sleepover :)

  35. momof2kittiesandapuppeh says:

    Nope. Gerbils have long skinny tails. These cutesters are definitely mini-hams. And…ahem…

    SQEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  36. Hamster Lover says:

    I would love to scoop them up and smoosh my face into the pile-o-hams!

  37. Where can I get hamster like those. I always wanted one, but my mother doesn’t allows me to keep them.

  38. 2nd photo says:

    Gettin up early to train for his 10k marathon.

  39. Emma says:

    I had roborovskis a few years ago, and I swear they got cuter every day. I miss my little guys. I’d love to have more robbies some day.

  40. Kate says:

    Ah yes. My mistake, mom. And don’t gerbil tails also have little poofy things on the end? Or is that some other kind of, um…rodent-thing? I used to know what they were called. I fail…

  41. Megan says:

    I think the hamsters are really cute I just want to hug them all
