Last autumn I posted about impulse buying an hamster and naming her Sergeant Squeaks, if you want to find out more the post is here. Sometimes the things that I do are not entirely logical but I feel like impulse buying hamsters and giving them silly names is a good bit of escapism when you consider how terrible the world is. Anyway I thought you might like an update and I’m pleased to say she is doing well! The good news is our cat, Sammy, still hasn’t eaten her, in fact he seems a little scared of her but we keep them apart just in case of course. She has yet to bite me or draw blood in any way which is more than I can say for Sammy!



Silly names are obligatory for pets. I once had a hamster called Hammy Bar-swinger and a fish called Phil… Thanks for some light relief
Haha I love the names!
It’s been that long?
It seems to have gone really fast!
Cat and hamster are both adorable. I like cute names for pets or names that are a bit off the wall. My cat’s name is Amanda Panda.
Now that is a great name for a cat! Normal names are boring. 🙂
I agree!
