8 Ways To Prepare Your Pets For War

Because lets face it...they need to learn to pull their own weight.

Hamsters

I have a hamster that I alternately love and loathe.  I love him because he's cute and fluffy.  I loathe him because his wheel has a squeak and his water bottle makes such a racket it can wake me up at night.  I love him because he's been around for 2+ years, and I sometimes loathe him because...I honestly didn't think he would live this long.  Which is a horrible thing to say, I know.  I feel bad for even thinking it at times.

Then I saw this.  A hamster mansion.  The Biltmore of hamster habitats. And I want it.  I want it bad.  So, Rufus, if you manage to live for a few more years (and why not, you've outlived every other hamster I ever knew) this might just be in your future.
