A Boy and His Fig

Remy is so in love with his little creature. He carries Fig around all the time. I have to make him put him up at bedtime. Fig from the start has been such a gentle and loving little thing. He never bites or tries to get away. He has become one of Remy's favorite pets.





He has tried to train him but he hasn't found the food that motivates him. The little thing just doesn't care about treats or foods. He eats his hamster food, but that doesn't seem to tempt him either. I guess he will just be a snuggly pet. :)

Remy Has a New Baby! Meet Fig!

Remy has been asking for a dwarf hamster for a while now. He has cared for three mice and he took a break because it is so hard when they pass on to the big wheel in the sky. We finally talked daddy into the hamster! Remy even paid for most of it. :)





Remy wanted me to crochet him a little "womb" house and so I did, of course. Fig seems to love it.








This is Fig's school. Remy puts him in here and is training him with a clicker and food. He wants to build an course for him and teach him to run it. But first he must learn to come to Remy. Wish him luck!





They are only young for so long. They only love things like this for such a short time. My boy and his critters, I love them together. :)








Welcome to hamster parenthood, Remy! I pray he lives so very long for you and that he is a wonderful student in his hamster school.
