We went to the pet store just to get the dry foods for our
cats. We came home with dry foods, wet foods, cat’s toy, catnip, cat’s elf hat
and a dwarf hamster. Yes, a real live
dwarf hamster. My youngest child bought it with her money that she had been
saving since Christmas. She bought food, bedding stuff, hamster cage with
toys. She told me she is very serious
and want to take responsible for her pet.
My first thought was our cats. Our cats love window sightseeing and they
get excited when they see birds, squirrels, chipmunks, and anything that is
small and it moves. This is not our
first hamster. Our oldest daughter had a hamster named, Cheese. May he rest in peace.
Tragedy, he was mystery escaped and found dead at the bedroom doorstep in the
morning. I don’t know if it was a gift from our beloved cat, Pumpkin. I told
her you are responsible to keep the cage clean, fill up the food and water and
so on. She was trying to name her hamster. She came up Dopey as one of the Snow
White and seven dwarfs. Before she made
the final name, I suggested her, Whisker.
She loves it but decided to name it, Dopey. We have to observe our cats,
Smudge and Dash to not attack the cage. They are behaving well but need to keep
eyes on them to accept Dopey as a family member not a target victim. Let’s hope
they will love each other.
Dopey, welcome to the family.
