You get used to seeing certain things during drives through my neighborhood: Lots of dogs and cats wandering the neighborhood, plus the occasional chicken or two. When it gets warm there are a couple of places you can depend on to be selling plates around lunch time. The yard sales around these parts are priceless. Someone is usually offering free kittens in the spring and summer and there are always some puppies for sale. But today...today I saw something I never imagined I would see: Hamsters for sale.Hamsters.
Furry, little rodents.
For sale. In the neighborhood.
For five dollars.
Just one more reason I love living here.

please tell me Lilah has her first pet hamster :-)
Wow! I missed a lot of updates. If hamsters could do that hula hoop/orange trick for real, they might be worth the five bucks!
Oh, and Lilah is still adorable...
Reminds me of the squirrel scene from Rat Race. Did you feel pressured to purchase one?
I can only imagine how this came to be. Little Johnny from the Hood wanted Hamsters so he and parents went to pet store and picked out two to bring home.
They were probably told they got two females or two males only Joe Schmo at PetSmart didn't bother to check the Hamster parts and next thing you know, Johnny from the Hood's hamsters were gettin' busy and TA DA - mucho baby Hamsters - all maturing fast enough to start this incestuous little Hamster cult - or create a fabulous at home business - take your pick!
Say NO to the rodents - Hamsters are just domesticated acceptable rats! ICK!!
