We have a hamster

The girls really wanted a pet, i wasn't so keen, but when i saw a hamster cage advertised on freecycle, i nabbed it double quick, knowing full well that one of Daisy's school friends 'Mark' had lots of baby hamsters needing homes.

School friend Mark's mummy Tanya gave us a baby male Russian dwarf hamster yesterday and it is now settling into it's new home.
It is called Peter Pan, although Iris really wanted to call it Ariel the little mermaid.
Iris isn't that keen on Peter Pan either, but as long as we use it's full show name of 'Peter Pan Fluffy Fluff' then she is ok.

I think we should have called it Gimli, seeing as it's a dwarf and it's quite hairy.
Gimli is in Lord of the Rings.


When little Peter plucks up enough courage to show his face then i'll take a picture of him.
