I was so scared I'd have to tell the owners that we'd fried the beast.

You and your husban...Thanks for stopping by, Mary!<br /><br />You and your husband are such good grandparents! I'll have to figure out what to do with the hamster now when we're off with hockey tourneys! J suggested we make sure we stay at "pet friendly" hotels. I emphatically told him that Hams would NOT be going along for any vacations. Jack, the dog, doesn't go, so why would Hams? I didn't let him answer because I knew that he'd tell me that Hams's home is mobile. 9yrolds, sheesh!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694966948181862580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347064123259172344.post-46707958027440819642010-02-04T10:52:39.241-05:002010-02-04T10:52:39.241-05:00Great blog!

The kids love them. <br /><br />At one time we (Papa and Nana) baby sat them, and I believe we had two gold fish (separate bowls, separate grand kids) that week too. <br /><br />We are so not pet people, and I was very proud I did not kill them (by accident). Just like I kill all plants that enter my home. I'm no longer allowed to have them. Who knew you had to water the dang things more than 'once in a while when they looked droopy'?<br /><br />Thanks for making me laugh!<br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983349083176213853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347064123259172344.post-41847003575803591762010-02-04T10:08:16.462-05:002010-02-04T10:08:16.462-05:00Cassy!!

If the little guy has a problem - which he is NOT exhibiting at this time (did I mention that before he started snoozing in the big wheel, he'd do his "duty" in there and it would clink-clink-clink every time he spun that wheel?) <br /><br />You earned top stars that weekend, for sure!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694966948181862580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347064123259172344.post-62281822661095919742010-02-04T07:59:54.382-05:002010-02-04T07:59:54.382-05:00Kris: I laughed out loud at your description.

Okay, I thought, this is community service, right? Well, when I picked my daughter with pet up at school, the teacher took me aside and whispered that since I had been a nurse, all this would be okay. Excuse me? The very old and tired hamster needed "help" in the poop department. So each day of the vacation, I stood in the bathroom "helping" the little guy with his daily business. I confess that was the last hamster we had. Now, another time I'll tell you about the rabbit that lived in our house, but at least my daughter kitty-box trained her.<br /><br />Congratulations on your blog. Great fun!Cassy Pickardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04777179497200958899noreply@blogger.com
