It Was Awful…ly Cute.

When little Lenny was four years old he went downstairs, removed his slippers, and decided he wanted to play the piano. At 3am. On a Monday morning.


Gives new meaning to growing pains, Minju!

    When my little hammy Gus was half a year old he stuffed some bedding in his cheeks, escaped from his cage, and built a nest underneath my bed. At 4 in the morning. Scared the bejeebus out of me when I heard tiny scurring and scratching coming from my mattress.

      Little Sammy did the same thing while we were on vacation for 2 weeks! We came home to find him missing and 8-year-old me was panicked. We found Sammy curled up between my mattress and box springs sleeping the sleep of the exhausted, next to a pile of every seed that had been dropped and lost in the carpet over the last year!

    Stuart Little would be so proud.

    Look at that furry short stature. Even the hammie’s feet look skinny like an old person that would wear those slippers.

    I would love to see the slippers on his feet. And then the ratty old bathrobe with a rope tie around his waist…and a night cap.,.oh, sorry, got carried away there. Oh by the way, I think this is a girl hammie.
