Can you now understand how restrained I was, that Sunday that [livejournal.com profile] sonicdrift took me out for a bibulous lunch and then to the hamster shop. They had a whole box of Roborovskis and I didn't buy any of them.

I can resist buying, but rescuing is a different matter. They have just discovered the wheel, and are finding they can run in parallel in it :-) Oh, and in series! And overtake each other! I worry a bit about their loop-the-loop exits...

Oh, I am going to be woken all night by the sound of hamsters landing on their heads and noses :-/

It takes a while to get used to, but they're absolutely not hurt by it! (and it's funny).

Better than that - it only took them half an hour to learn how to slow the wheel a bit before the dismount. The funny thing now is watching one hamster try to join one that's already spinning at high velocity.

That makes them smarter than mine - I don't think any of them ever worked out decelerating - dead stop and getting flung across the tank seemed to do it for them.
