Optional Pet
Yesterday Mark and I decided to go to Friday’s Market after lunch since I wanted to check out the pets there. The place was awfully crowded and the animals were all over each other, some were even being handled carelessly by merchants like toys. We started first by checking out the dogs. We saw a couple of cute puppies, but getting a dog for the moment is out of the question since we need a babysitter for it during the day. Then we started looking around for hamsters and guinea pigs since that was the second best options. We ended up finding alot. Some looked diseased with tumors on there backs or limbs, and others were rather cute. Finally Mark and I decided that the best option would be to get 2 hamsters for the moment. We also thought that before we get the hamsters we will have to buy them a nice big house with a playground. We then left the place empty handed and we went back home. We started looking for deluxe houses on amazon and we found a really big cool one that we will be most probably getting. I can’t wait to have something moving in the house..

such a little cute house
This is a cool looking house but it’s actually not that big if you are planning on getting a male and a female. I did that when I was in the states and while starting with 2 hamsters I eneded up with 8 without knowing what to do with them. In other words, make sure you know what you are getting yourself into or you will end up living in this house while the hamsters take over your apartment.
I’ve had many hamsters in the past, i’m not kidding…MANY. Some advice on what will happen, they love each other and are really nice in the beginning, then they start to bite (so make sure you teach them not to bite), then they start to reproduce..in this stage make sure each hamster has alot of thier own space. Separate the male from female as much as possible because she gets aggressive, then when the babies grow make sure they don’t crowd each other..or they will turn into murderers.
hmmmm Dyxio you made me thinking now…do I actually have time for a hamster and all of this?…getting a dog seems much easier to handle after the details you just provided me with..:S
Rami I might be having seconds thoughts now, heh..maybe I’ll end up getting 1 hamster for now instead of a coupple that way it wont be able to reproduce..
