I got hampsters during junior high.
I'm never getting them again. Tenacious little beasts they are. They would chew on the plastic little connectors for doors and squeeze through to my room. There was also this little observational tower for them that they could crawl up to to look around, but instead they always used it as a bathroom.
We were also supposed to have two females, but apparently someone fucked that up because one of them had babies.
After giving birth, the mother then ate the babies.
A few months later they had babies again.
The mother ate an even larger proportion of the babies this time.
The male then somehow disappeared. I don't know where he went. He was out of his cage one day and we never found him. We freaking moved and we never found him. A few of the babies grew up a little, and we gave all of them away.
