Evil biting monsters....
My brother has a habit of collecting random pets, he's had two rats, he currently has an incontinent cat that shits everywhere...and I mean everywhere...
however he used to collect dwarf hamsters, and introduced me to them one was called jaffa because it had eaten a packet of jaffa cakes,
jaffa was the quiet hamster, well behaved and very cuddly, it climbed into my shirt pocket, and decided it was going to nest there.....
it started chewing its way through my shirt, and was in danger of piercing my nipple as well, until my bro had a brilliant idea to get the hamster to escape..
I would lay flat on my back on the sitting room floor and he would prod it til it shot out of my pocket, which it did, leaving a small trail of hamster shit all over my shirt.

The other one was called Bitey, and he held it out for me to stroke, and as i went in to gently stroke its little furry back it sunk its sharp pointy little hamster teeth into my finger,
now when ever anything attaches itself to your finger you have an automatic reaction to shake it off your hand, which I did, and then bitey the hamster flew across the room.
Luckily it had a soft landing on the bed and didnt go out of the open window and onto the tram tracks in Sheffield.

I am now looking after my bro's latest hamster for long complicated reasons, and already its tried to eat the upholstery in my car, bitten my finger when I went to feed it, and has been driving me mad so far with its spinning in the wheel, because thats all it does, goes round and round and round all afternoon....

I'm sure there'll be more random hamster stories (and not in that way either.......)
