About a few years ago, I was happily keeping my REALLY expensive pet rabbit when I spy a computer shop near my house selling hamsters. Yup, I dont know why they started selling hammies but heck, I got curious and walked in.
I got immediately attracted to a single lone pretty female hamster in a cage. The rest of the hamsters were all bunched together in a big family in 2 or 3 separated cages. When I inquired the shop owner why the poor hamster was all alone by herself, he told me that this was an especially aggressive hamster.
I peeked at her and she gazed at me with huge adoring black eyes. I was hooked and sadden by her plight. I thought she was this poor lil' cute thing that was sadly misunderstood. I brought her home.
She was such a tiny thing, being a dwarf hamster and all. Nice smooth fur and she climbed trustingly into my hands whenever I reached for her. I introduced her to my pet rabbit and they seem fine. At that time, I thought it was kinda cute to put a hamster and a rabbit together in a cage. I mean, my worry then was that the rabbit might step on the lil' thing and kill it or something...I was sadly mistaken.
The very next day, I found my rabbit lying dead at a corner of the cage with its right hind leg chewed off. I was pretty horrified to say the least. I couldnt believe my eyes. I mean, CHEWED, you know ? God knows what kind of diet this hamster's on. >_<"
Anyway, sad and angry, I returned the stupid hamster to its own cage and what do you know ? The smart aleck made it way outta the cage somehow and escaped. I wasnt that concerned and I believe justice had been served.
That night, my cat had a smile on its face.
