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

hamsters can't live together - they fight

I believe russian dwarf hamsters are the only ones that can live together

Lots of houses around the country

"DH, remember we lost that gerbil?"

anon666 · 09/11/2006 16:24

Plus, most blenders can't really handle bones of any sort, so that is a non-starter. I can just hear the juddering sound it would make - at least my cheap one.

ludaloo · 09/11/2006 16:25

Russian dwarf hamsters can live together if the cage is enormous, otherwise you will have one big fat hamster one morning (after much overnight squeaking).

Roborovskis can live together.

HM, are you really HamsterMunker?

ludaloo · 09/11/2006 16:31

Twiglett · 09/11/2006 16:36

I feel sorry for the mythical daughter bawling her eyes out

well I would if she existed

or if this had happened

well you see what I mean

.... I also cry at made-for-tv movies

Bozza · 09/11/2006 16:37

Hunker if I was you I would be keeping well away from lapauvre - if she can do this to a hamster, surely a mouse can't be safe.

ishouldbeironing · 09/11/2006 16:39

Where has she gone to?? Is she at the pet shop??

katierocket · 09/11/2006 16:40

perhaps she's wondering what to make for DD's tea

misdee · 09/11/2006 16:40

if her dd was crying in the bathroom, should she becopmforting her and not be on here?

Twiglett · 09/11/2006 16:42

yes .. every child needs a good copmfort

ishouldbeironing · 09/11/2006 16:43

Or a pet

misdee · 09/11/2006 16:44

wannaBe1974 · 09/11/2006 16:44

Twiglett · 09/11/2006 16:46

Tulips from Hamster-Jam

Kelly1978 · 09/11/2006 16:46

pmsl now at rattatouie!

I love the hamster/aspirin thing too, def quote of the week.

I'm still trying to figure out who it is. There has to be a clue in the name. Doesn't it mean 'the poor one' in english?

MrsBadger · 09/11/2006 16:46

or perhaps mousesaka?
