got a rescue hamster on Sunday.
She'll never replace him, but she has a proper home now.

No, silly, he means like a St Bernard is a rescue dog.
It has a tiny thimble of brandy hanging fromn it's neck and everything. Rescue hamsters are a much under appreciated tool in post earthquake aid, you know.

they are nocturnal
and have no means of defending themselves. no wonder the silly sods are extinct in the wild.

they aren't nocturnal.
They're crepuscular.

Plus pet shops offer adoption for older ones they can't sell.

I'm just genuinely impressed people re-home hamsters.
the pet shop thing makes sense though, absolutely.

I've not been there, because I'm a big wuss and I will adopt them all without considering the consequences

People always say this about guinea pigs
never about dogs and cats. Perhaps I should remind them about Korean Dog restaurants everytime they talk about them
