We had the standard family experience with hamsters - miniature ones in our case. It is too bad we didn't have better information, they would have been a lot more fun.
1) Stunk.. 2) Cleaned the stupid cage every week. Still Stunk. 3) Bit me every time I picked it up to clean the cage. Still stunk. 4) Developed a GIGANTIC tumor on its belly and had to put it down. 5) Family cried! 6) Is a hamster really worth it?
This is so funny because the Anderton kids taught the McSweeney kids how to "launch" a hamster on a "trampoline" by bunching up a blanket around the little guy and then pulling it really tight.
I also have a distinct memory of your hamsters being sent off the 2nd floor balcony with a G.I. Joe parachute . . . :)
