Hammiesessive

First was that, suddenly, I WAS a father. I thought that I wouldn't really want to be one. But thinking about it, I might as well be a good father, now that the kids are here.



But, alas, the bad news is that Qingzi lost her kids. All of them. 'Coz she ate 'em.

I dunno why she had to do that. I don't know whether I'll be mad at her or what for what she had done. But I just can't stay mad at her for a long time.

And now, I think, she may be pregnant again.

But will she do the same thing she had done with our firstborn hammies?

I'm so scared.

As for the other things that happened, they already pale in comparison to this. I can say no more.

Well, now that I'm back from saving this blog from Qingzi's horrible blogging skills, I can post more embarrassing photos of her here and, of course, my adorable shots (because it's MY blog).


No wonder Qingzi's a much bigger hamster than I am (in body size, of course). She's been hoarding all the grains she could find the minute Human absentmindedly placed her on the food tub. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Hey Qingzi, exercise a little bit of restraint, yo!


And now there's her lovely mugshot. Her cheek pouches are full of grains. Human proceeded to get her back to her home so she could unload and eat, after which she'll be back to the Holding Area while Human cleans her home.


And like any other gluttonous hamster, she sleeps after having a huge meal.

Human has been keeping tab of how many days have already passed since she noted that Qingzi's been getting rounder at the bottom. She thought that maybe (just maybe) Qingzi's pregnant and that I'm the father. It still bewilders me as to how it could have happened, since I don't really like Qingzi that much (though she can be rather cute, especially during certain nights).

And so, Human has already crossed much of the little drawing boxes she kept on her desktop, but still, nothing's happening with Qingzi. She just keeps on gnawing on her cage bars (like any good hamster would) and hoarding her grains. And she's still round at the bottom. And very fluffy.

I think my Human just needs to realize that Qingzi's just fat. That's all. Sheesh.

For a time, because Pao Chi left and went to Hammieven, I've been Human's only hammie. It could get lonely at times, with only the cage bars and the exercise wheel to amuse me.

And yes, of course, the Nescafe box became my companion.

No, I'm not endorsing the product. Geez, I don't even drink coffee. Caffeine is very bad for hammie health, but it seems the Human is fond of drinking such that I'm surprised she hasn't turned coffee-colored yet.

I've gotten used to being on my own that I was surprised when, one night, Human came home with this:

"I brought you a friend," Human told me happily.

"What's that? Saw dust?" I looked up to her and she only seemed to smile from ear to ear. Maybe she thought I was happy that she brought me saw dust. I'm content with my fine pine beddings, thank you. Me needs no rough saw dust. Eeeewww.

I looked closely. Oh, it's not just saw dust. She's also brought home a cotton ball. Is that for nesting? I searched her face for answers.

Human picked up the clear tub containing the saw dust and put it near my cage. Something's moving in it. I stood up in alarm.

"Look, Coco," Human said. "Meet Qingzi!"


Oh, so she's got me a "friend". Great. What is she doing anyway, with her face pressed on the clear plastic wall?

"Qingzi's a boy hamster, too, like you."

I jumped up and down, shouting at her: she's not a boy! She's a girl!

Awww, but it seems Human is convinced she brought home a male buddy for me when I can smell her all the way from my cage.

But what could I do? I got a new roommie.

But I wish Human would get us a bigger home. This Qingzi took my box!


Aaaarrrrrrgggghhhhhhhhh!
