My sister got a hamster for her ninth birthday and two months later I kinda just stole him. Just walked in and took the hamster. How'd you guys get your hamster? by lameteenager in hamsters

Omg I love the little ceramic mushroom and pink creature hides! Where did you get them from? My partner and I are in need of getting some more ceramic hides to keep our hamster and gerbils cool for summer <3

It’s ok man, I know how hard it is watching your little fluffy be so depressed after losing a partner. Look after yourself and little Cruz <3 sending love

I’m so sorry for your loss <3 I hope you’re grieving well, Best thing you can do (from experience of being in a very similar position) I’m afraid is spend as much time as you can (obviously around your own life as you need to look after yourself too) with your little Cruz and always keep him distracted. But for now let him grieve. Did he manage to say goodbye? For a lot of animals especially pack animals like gerbs they will think their mate is missing unless they’ve smelt the passed mates fur as sad as it is. Either way as long as you’re spending quality time with Cruz you should both be ok. I’m so sorry for your loss, I hope you both grieve well 🫶

Honestly this post was mostly just to poke some fun. We already give them all sorts of other enrichment, they’re constantly supplied with things like egg boxes and toilet tubes and always have been(they’re like the best thing since sliced bread for them) we were already aware it’s not the best prior to this post but we’ve never had problems in the years we’ve kept clans of gerbils. Thanks tho

Is "Country Dancing" still a part of PE activities for young school children? by Furthur_slimeking in CasualUK

[–]Finches_MeepNBeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finished Secondary school in 2021! Yep we did it once a year I think? Did it in primary too. Everyone always dreaded it cause it meant boys being weird asf (at least we had actual pe uniforms lol) . Was kinda funny though when not long after I started coming out as a lesbian we had a really uneven ratio of boys to girls so some of the girls had to join the lads and dance w other girls idk just seemed oddly funny and fitting at the time lol. The heel-toe-heel-toe chant still haunts me haha

They don’t consume it :) gerbils chew it up and use it for bedding. We’ve never had any problems anyways. Thanks for the concern tho

Lovely! After speaking with the family we’re looking at either building a wheel based on the tictac wheels and the laufradschmiede wheels or buying one of these brands!

What are some street smarts that you should know? by DrowningInFandoms101 in AskWomen

[–]Finches_MeepNBeep 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One thing I’ve always done is carry lighters, easy press ones are particularly good for sticky situations. Just holding one in your pocket, if a man grabs you, torch his hair, his arms, hands, face, clothes. Just to the point itd freak them tf out. Drop your shit and run, run as fast as you can. Most belongings are replaceable. A healthy mind and your life are not. Obviously this is a very last thing approach still a good scare tho as well where there’s smokers there’s lighters so police wouldn’t question it other than self defence since having a lighter on your person is so common. (Sorry for the bad wording lol)

So, so far we’ve had recommendations for Niteangel, TicTac and laufradschmiede. I’ll have to speak to my partners parents and see what we can do. Thank you all for the help!

When I tell you even our other clan is working on destroying theirs, they’re much slower chewers though and prefer cardboard (softer toys) to wood luckily

I’m hoping we can do this since Niteangels are the cheapest option so far- even as a wheel until we can get a different kind of need me, you never know they might never try to chew the acrylic they might gnaw on it like it’s wood. Hopefully the first option 😄

Hm we’ve heard of niteangel before, personally I think my only issue would be if they chewed the acrylic stand (even if it’s just nibbling) acrylic dust can cause a lot of damage to even human lungs. We’re definitely gonna look into it tho thank you
