hamster stories

office boredom has driven me to this:

anyone have any good hamster stories?

i once had one called linford who broke out of his cage in the kitchen and managed to climb our entire flight of stairs and go into my parents room, where his pattering around woke them up.

my present hamster biffy is a living legend. one day i woke up to see that he/she had moved his bedding from his little house into his wheel, and he's slept there ever since. no exercise for that little blighter!

Re: hamster stories

i had a hamster called bubble. it was a girl, and it had about seven babies then it ate about 5 of them. evil cannibal thing.
then its eyes popped out one day. yes, both of them. i do not know whether this is related to eating its babies or not. the strange thing is, it still lived for about 30 minutes afterwards.

Re: hamster stories

i've heard stories of this eye popping thing before. my friend gave her hamster a pink mohawk using food colouring and then its eye shrivelled up like a raisin and fell out.

gah! this is the kind of thing nightmares are made of!

Apparently, they can't fart and certain foodstuffs build up gasses.

Re: hamster stories

Foul. I could never own a pet as prone to eating its kids, having its eyes shrivel and pop and exploding. My fragile mental state couldn't take it. Are you sure your friend didn't feed it bicorbonate of soda or something?

Re: hamster stories

I remember a girl giving a personal talk in English spent the entire 4minutes talking about how her hamster has babies with extra legs growing out their backs.

She passed. Slanderous cow.

Re: hamster stories

i really hate hamsters, why not get a rat, they're much better. hamsters are just violent, destructive and reeeally stupid. i once had one called chewy. so named because it used to get stuck behind the bookcase and chew all the spines off the books. pah! no appreciation for good literature these uneducated rodents...

Why did the chicken cross the basketball court?
'Cos he heard the referee was blowing fouls.

Sorry, Durutti's 'Foul' comment just made me think of that joke. Can't really be adapted for hamsters, sadly.

Re: hamster stories

well, my friend had a hamster, and once it went missing for ages, and so everyone assumed it had just gone under the floorboards or something. Then, one morning, my friend was doing her homework when she dropped her pen, and it rolled under the sofa, and when she bent down to get it, under the sofa was the hamsters head... staring at her...... (its eyes hadn't fallen out!)



ah yes, this very same girl once had three hamsters killed by her cat in A MONTH!then finally one lived for about a year but last week it died...... yes, the cat got it.......

Re: hamster stories

some people shouldn't be allowed pets.

i once had a goldfish that i won at the fair and it died within an hour of getting home. seeing a dead fish floating in a plastic bag with glassy eyes staring at me made me realise fish are really weird looking and freak me out.
they taste nice though.

Re: hamster stories

i know a boy who poured vodka in his fishtank, and all three of his fish exploded.

he told me at the beginning of year nine when we were asked to tell new classmates an interesting story about ourselves...

this is the same boy who ate half a dead frog.
not sure which half though.

Re: hamster stories

vodka in a bird bath is ALWAYS hilarious. someone i know did that and had their back window smashed by a divebombing drunk skyrat. whose head proceeded to implode on impact.
