I’ve owned nine in total since I was a kid. Here’s my most recent one.
So, just the golden hamster? Because there’s a bunch of different kinds of hamsters.
Just wondering, how many rats have you owned?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_hamster
“In 1930, Israel Aharoni, a zoologist and professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, captured a mother hamster and her litter of pups in Aleppo, Syria. The hamsters were bred in Jerusalem as laboratory animals. Some escaped from the cage through a hole in the floor, and most of the wild golden hamsters in Israel today are believed to be descended from this litter.
Descendants of the captive hamsters were shipped to Britain in 1931, where they came under the care of the Wellcome Bureau of Scientific Research. They bred well and two more pairs were given to the Zoological Society of London in 1932. The descendants of these were passed on to private breeders in 1937. A separate stock of hamsters was exported from Syria to the USA in 1971, but apparently none of today’s North American pets is descended from these (at least in the female line), because recent mitochondrial DNA studies have established that all domestic golden hamsters are descended from one female – probably the one captured in 1930 in Syria.”
I demand proof, I can’t find anything on google.
No, but Curtis Pawpower is definitely best hamster.
That’s no rat, that’s a goddamn hamster. Hamsters are fuzzy little antisocial assholes. I received more bites in the week of petsitting my neighbor’s hamster than in thirteen years of owning rats.
They’re basically the rodent version of those bitchy yet somehow popular girls in high school movies. They’re also the rodent version of the hillbillies in Deliverance, as every hamster in captivity is the descendant of a single female captured in 1933.
Any questions?
It was all going so good until the tambourine.

Never mind; just got the joke.
Last I checked, Keith Mowz and Watermelon Rat were two different users…
