Hamsters and kittens, oh my!

I’ve had enough of misogynists for today. I thinks it’s time for some tiny adorable animals doing their tiny adorable animal things. First, who needs a Roomba when you’ve got a hamster?

The only way that could have been better is if it were sped up and set to the theme from the Benny Hill show.

And speaking of hamsters, and musical accompaniment, here’s a kitten stuck in a hamster ball, set to “Stuck in the middle with you,” by Stealers Wheel:

Now, when you hear that song, you don’t have to picture some dude getting his ear chopped off.

Oh no Dracula that’s so awful. I know everyone already said this but yeah, I’ll be thinking of you two and so will my cat.

Oh, Dracula, I’m so sorry. I nursed my cat through 3 years of renal failure only to lose him to cancer in the end. It’s really hard.

She may not know what a little pumpkin is. Maybe if she saw YOU play with the little pumpkin, perhaps along with a familiar kitty toy, she would get the idea, and join you.

Happy “kittening” and have fun (the two of you!)

PEACE AND FREEDOM !!

Bunny rabbits are not as interactive with people as are kittens or puppies, but for “pettability”, you’re right! Their fur IS like soft plush velvet, and they are very sweet.

Have fun petting,caressing, and cuddling their soft plush velvety fur! It is VERY relaxing and soothing, and they will find ways of recognising you and responding to your petting!

Guinea Pig lovers – my friend let me cuddle and pat her new guinea pig. (so soft and silky!) It sat quietly in my lap, and after a while it started whistling. Did that mean it was happy or scared or wanted to go back to bed or what?

I could have patted that little pig all day 🙂

I have piggies and they are awesome!

Usually suddenly starting to whistle while being held means “potty emergency approaching,” so it’s a very very good idea to put them down then. 🙂

Thanks Holly, that’s really handy to know, cause I intend to hold the little darling as often as I can. Never had piggies myself, so I’m only just discovering how squee they are. Pretty colours, long soft fur, bright eyes, little wriggly nose. 🙂

You’re right! Those bunny jumpers are adorable, but I would be concerned about their safety! I would NOT want any of the little fellers hurt while “showing off”.

That’s definitely a concern, but I’m not too worried. The rabbits don’t appear reluctant, as one might expect if they were in pain, their trainers look quite solicitous of them, and traditionally the Northern European countries have been very good on animal welfare issues.

I agree! They do seem cautious. I am a bit worried about that one guy with the short leash, though. Seems like he had a hard time keeping up with his bunny ;p

They’re thinking, planning their jumps.

You’ve got to keep your Human on a short leash.
