My daughter used to have hamsters--with my permission--until one day it escaped its cage and the cat found it. My daughter was traumatized, so I bought her a replacement--guess what happened to it? After awhile, we decided hamsters and cats could not peacefully exist in our house.<BR/><BR/>Bella's mother and yours could have been a little more understanding:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-50630976387722164762009-01-03T19:29:00.000+00:002009-01-03T19:29:00.000+00:00Have I missed something?

What we got into trouble for was trading the two white rabbits for a turtle and a kitten. <BR/><BR/>I had an experience like Donny's when a friend gave me two mice when we were in college.
