yeah i have a hamster too (a stupid evil one) my smallest dog hops onto my bed and then onto my dresser where i keep the hamster and the crabs and she stares at it, i dont think she wants to hurt it becuase we had hamsters before and she would actually "play" with them , when i put them on the floor she would lay down and lick them allllll over the place, it was cute but i wont let her do that with this hamster becuase that thing is evil, i swear it is trying to kill me, i just drop some food and water in there and run like heck.Im actually kinda scared of it.My sister is the one who bought it fore me for my birthday i think and i have never really been a rodent person, ive always been into fish and ant farms and stuff like that and now im just now getting into snakes, i have two of them.
