No its a Russian Dwarf Hamster!
That is the question I asked in the pet shop...LF has decided he wants a pet. A dog is out of the question as it is too much of a responsibility and we are not really cat people.
LF thinks a hamster would be great...he saw the movie Bolt!!
I went to our local pet shop and the nice lady told me a Dwarf Hamster makes a great pet for a 7 year old, especially if they are not used to animals. The teeth of a Dwarf hamster are much smaller than those of Syrian Hamsters so the bite is less painful...great!! They live in a cage, eat once a day, don't make much noise and like a daily cuddle...sounds perfect to me!
Tomorrow we shall be returning to the pet shop and the nice lady will show LF how to handle these little hamsters...if he likes it and we think he will manage having such a pet then by tomorrow night we shall have a new addition to the Family!
Oh...and have you guessed the name LF wants to call it???
LEGO!!!!....
