Please don't laugh at me, I am so upset. She is at school, she will be gutted

I warmed up a pot of chicken casserole left over from yesterday to have for my lunch. I have eaten it, it's too late to do anything, but it was boiling for a good hour before I ate it and now I've just gone to feed dd's hamster and his cage is open and he isn't there . There was no lid on the casserole pot, his cage was on the shelf at the other end of the kitchen and the door was shut so there isn't really anywhere else he could have gone. He must have fallen in and drowned before it got hot, that's the only thing I can think of. I didn't find the hamster in the stew obviously, but there were some hairs in the pot, I just washed it it was full of bones anyway because they were those cheap chicken portions just boiled in from frozen.

Please, don't just laugh at me, I know this sounds silly but he was my daughter's birthday present, she is 6 and I don't think she will ever forgive me

Where do you live ? There are MNers all over the place. None have the expertise of hunker, or the pure snack appeal of Twiglett, but I'm sure we can find you someone. All they need is a torch and a big heart.

I'm not telling you lot where I live. You're all crackers.

stuart little used to drive a car!- so if popcorn has any such ambitions- he could be anywhere

hub2dee · 09/11/2006 20:03

Just ignore the mental instability and focus on the hampster ! We need to find the hampster.

No, popcorn won't be in the toilet. But do you have a larder ? A grain store ? I bet pph has a grain store. Do you have a place where you store newspapers ? They love newspaper. Their best one is the FT because something in the pink ink tastes nice apparently ! Do you have any copies of the FT ? (I like their weekend magazine).

I take it you didn't find him in the toilet ?

No, but ds has been a couple of times and I don't think he looks before he flushes, he is only 3

They all look because they like to follow their 'gifts'.

So you don't have a grain store ?

Any luck with the newspaper pile ?

I have packed my torch. I have wheels and a full tank of petrol. 'Any animal, however big or small' is my phrase. 'Les grands et les petits'.

Ellaroo · 09/11/2006 20:13

You first posted at 3.30pm....has no one really been to the loo since then?...surely your daughter would have noticed him while she was in the bathroom crying earlier?

LaPauvre · 09/11/2006 20:14

Of course I don't have a grain store. What sort of person has a grain store?

I thought you were being kind but you are just as mean as everyone else.

OMG no KFC nearby is there......they do POPCORN CHICKEN....OR SO THEY SAY

hub2dee · 09/11/2006 20:17

I have a grain store. It's in my shed. I have seed for the bird feeders. If you're in the country you might have horses and have their feed stored somewhere too. They can smell it a mile off. This is not a wind up.

I take it you don't have newspapers ? I can understand that as I only read the news on the Web too because it means less paper is wasted which saves trees and more trees means less global warming which means the ice is thicker and the polar bear won't drown, so it all adds up.

kittywits · 09/11/2006 20:18

If it makes you feel better my ds squashed his gerbil with a bucket the other week

hub2dee · 09/11/2006 20:19

Why cod ? Because it's not about shawls and halter-neck tops ?

This is about a LIVE ANIMAL. Well, a potentially live animal if it hasn't been blended by Brian.

Don't you have any compassion ?
