They laughed when I said, "She's got it fgured out. I'm tellin you, she knows how to open that cage door." Out loud, they laughed. Well they're not laughing now. They're snoring. And now. And now there is a hampster roaming freely through the house.
Now, I'm not one of these mothers who "eeks" and makes a dash for the table when there is a rodent about.
Well, most rodents yes but not hampsters. Not Lucy. She is a teddy bear hampster, dark brown and very sweet. But she's got a bit of a wandering leg. Four of them actually. And although I can't find her I know they're all working at top speed even as I type.
And the dog? The RAT TERRIER who is supposed to hone in on these things like a Gabor sister to a rich elderly man??
Asleep in bed. With dad. While I watch for the hampster. All that is going through my mind is Ricky Ricardo...
