We've been looking after some hamsters for some friends for a few days.
They're super-cute dwarf hamsters.
But the bloody things only wake up at night! What use is that to a 3 year old?
Having hamsters seems to me to involve the grown ups looking after them and the little ones being disappointed as they can't play with them.
What good is that? Have I missed something?!
I'm really keen on pets in cages anyway. If they were my hamsters they'd probably end up with an enormously daft cage the size of the room or something!
