#hamster advice
Note
Can I have some advice on how to get comfortable holding a hamster? Me and my daughter got one and have been using a hut to move her in and out for play
I wanna get really comfortable with them i’m just nervous!
I was super nervous at first too! There's a YouTuber called Victoria Rachel who has a series of videos with tips on socialising hamsters and getting used to holding them. I watched all her videos before getting my first hamster and it really helped.
I'll sum up what I did with both toast and wasabi:
Try putting a handful of food into the hamsters cage and leave the food in your open palm. Lay you palm flat on the ground and if you're worried the ham might nibble your fingers cover them with kibble. Do this a few times until the hamster is happy enough to sit by your hand and eat some food.
Then get a treat, I use sunflower seeds or yoghurt drops, and put it on the tip of a finger and offer it to the ham. Keep your hand in the same flat, open palm, fingers together position.
Each day move the treat further up your finger across your palm and to your wrist. Make sure you wash your hands beforehand so the hamster doesn't smell food on your fingers and tries to nibble one. If it does go to nibble try not to jerk away suddenly but move slightly and make a "hey!" noise. It'll let them know thats not food. Once you have the hamster sitting in your palm eating a treat you can practice slowly lifting your hand. The ham might jump out the first few times so lift slowly.
Eventually you can cup the hamster with two hands and bring it closer to your body. Then you can pet them to your hearts delight!
Once the hamster is more used to your scent and interacting with you, you can hold the treat out with one hand and scoop them up with the other. (Just make sure the hamster is aware of both your hands so it doesn't get a fright) Then you won't even need the treat!
I did all this over the course of about 2 weeks and now I basically pick my hamster up like a claw machine and he's totally fine with it.
I hope this helps! And I hope the YouTube link works but if you type in her name it should come up! :D

Can any experienced hamster owners help me? I am the new owner a male siberian hamster and I need recommendations for bedding types/brands. At first I was using the free bedding that came with my cage but in the span of a few days the bedding was matted into the ends of his fur and I had to trim him. I bought another pack of bedding but I think it’s already getting stuck to his fur. Are there any brands that don’t cling onto longer fur as easily or that y’all recommend?

Cutscene - Suzy asks for help
[Individual Frames can be viewed Here]
[Image ID: A gif made up of a series of screenshots. Of the character Suzy talking to the player
Dialog:
Brrrrriiing! Unidentified caller on the line!
I'm dialing a direct line straight to your heart!
Good morning everyone! It's me, Suzy Honeylove!
Huh? What am I doing so early in the A.M.?
Well, I have a favor to ask you! Want to hear it?
You do, right? You do, RIGHT?
... That's what i thought. Good answer.
I want to ask you about that boy.
Don't you think he's gotten a lot nicer lately?
I think he's really into me! In fact, there's only one problem...
You see, he's not very good at communicating. He's too shy.
He likes me, but he can't TELL me he likes me.
What can I do? We're this close to being an item!
If you could just give him a friendly nudge...
we'd be happy together forever! Mwah-haha-ho!
...Ahem. So you see my problem? I want you to be our go-between.
Note: Player is presented with two dialog options: Sure thing! and It won't work out.
Option 1) Sure thing!
Really?! Thank you! You're the greatest!
First, find out how he feels about me, OK?
Just don't be obvious. I owe you one!
Option 2) It wont work out
Dialog:
.......... ..........
Note: the screen goes black and Suzy character art dissapears for the rest of the dialog.
Bam! Pow! Kapaw! Biff biff biff biff...
... Ack!
Farewell!

To explain my last post, this is why I went to boots in the first place:
Tumblr media
Cute right?
Aesthetic right?
Tumblr media
(ignore the crack, my brother broke it and refuses to pay me back £2)
It's in memory of Saffron, I thought it would encourage me to carry my keys on me cuz I always forget, and looking at it makes me feel better (yes I'm 9 days away from being 16, deal with it).
I didn't go to boots for THIS
Tumblr media
Idk whether to laugh or to cry-

Hello & Welcome!! Over the course of my journey and experiences with hamster care I’ve learned so much, things I’d wished I’d known longer and as a result I’d love to create a community (no matter how big or small), where we can all come together to support one another and share the things we’ve learned!
I’d love a place where hamster/rodent lovers can come together to help and support one another! Everyone and anyone is more than welcome to comment or make posts, however all of any comments must be constructive and fair!
The welfare and happiness of our small friends is essential here, and I’d appreciate it if we could stick together and support one another in our own journey of rodent care, topics for this include but aren’t limited to;
🐹 - Enclosure types and their size! {#HamsterHomes}
🐹 - Enrichment!
🐹 - Activities!
🐹 - Suitable substrate!
🐹 - Care advice!
🐹 - Suitable foods (Fresh and Dry!)
🐹 - Cleaning
🐹 - Behaviours and Habits!
🐹 - Recommended Products!
🐹 - Or just to show off your furry babies!
I myself am NOT an expert, this is just a hamster parent sharing what she’s learned over the years, and I’d love for others to do the same! It’s been trial and error, I myself have made mistakes but without knowledge how will we improve? Thank you!! 😊🐹❤️

MongCoin: The Meme Coin With Staying Power in a Fading Frenzy
New Post has been published on https://www.ultragamerz.com/mongcoin-the-meme-coin-with-staying-power-in-a-fading-frenzy/
MongCoin: The Meme Coin With Staying Power in a Fading Frenzy
MongCoin: The Meme Coin With Staying Power in a Fading Frenzy
The world of cryptocurrency is no stranger to fleeting trends. In 2023, meme coins, digital tokens inspired by internet jokes and cultural references, exploded in popularity. Dogecoin, the undisputed king of meme coins, saw meteoric growth, while newcomers like Shiba Inu and Floki Inu rode the wave of hype. However, as with any trend, the meme coin frenzy started to cool down in 2024, leaving many projects floundering and forgotten.
But amidst the fading enthusiasm, MongCoin stands out as a curious anomaly. Launched in May 2023, MongCoin emerged from the now-infamous congressional hearing where a U.S. congressman’s remarks about “crypto replacing crypto” sparked a wave of animal-themed meme coins. What began as a lighthearted homage to the bizarre moment has, surprisingly, shown some staying power.
Unlike many meme coins that relied solely on hype and social media buzz, MongCoin built a small but dedicated community. The project embraced its meme-coin identity, branding itself as the “king of memes” and fostering a playful, lighthearted atmosphere. Additionally, MongCoin partnered with other platforms to enhance its utility. These collaborations explored avenues like social betting and NFT storage, providing some semblance of real-world use cases beyond mere speculation.
The Ethereum (ETH) network serves as the backbone of MongCoin, allowing for secure transactions and global accessibility. While the project primarily focuses on humor and community building, its presence on the established Ethereum blockchain lends a touch of legitimacy compared to meme coins operating on less robust platforms.
A Glimpse into the Meme Coin Landscape:
MongCoin’s story highlights the volatile nature of meme coins. Projects like Doge and Shiba Inu, while still holding significant market caps, haven’t replicated their 2023 peaks. Others like Hamster Coin, once touted as a “friendly companion” to MongCoin, have faded into obscurity.
The Future of MongCoin:
Whether MongCoin can maintain its momentum remains to be seen. The cryptocurrency market thrives on innovation and utility, and meme coins built solely on hype often struggle to stay relevant in the long run. However, MongCoin’s community-driven approach and playful branding could potentially carve out a niche within the broader crypto landscape.
It’s important to remember that cryptocurrency investments are inherently risky. While MongCoin’s ongoing activity might seem enticing, thorough research and a cautious approach are crucial before making any investment decisions.

Dndads Dad characters and what I consider to be their most notable parenting crime
The amount of seriousness for any of these is highly variable
Barry: Using a giant hamster water bottle type thing to hydrate the soulless bodies of your grandkids. Bill: Not letting his son murder him. Cern: Getting your kids involved in the doomsday cult you're a member of. Darryl: Honestly? Being a slightly more boring version of my own dad. Frank: Not super canon, but like...he'd give the "Eat some peanut butter to stop being depressed" advice. Gartok: Enslaved his kids. Glenn: Pretended to not like minions with an intensity that it made him look really bad in court. Grant: Probably should have taken Lincoln to a therapist right after the cat incident. Henry: Seems to have forgotten he has a daughter. Jodie: Gave his child a flashbang. Lark(?): Didn't tell Normal about the bulletproofing in the mascot outfit. Poor kid was probably wondering why all the cheerleading moves were harder now. Marco: So unsure of himself that he's able to be convinced he signed a permission slip for his son to go to Seattle. Nicky: Suggests friend murder way too easily as a problem solving method. Ron: "Who's your daddy now?" Scam: Hermie is a teenager because that's the funniest age for him to be. Sparrow: Did not stop Normal from being Vinny the Vulture during a heatwave. Terry Jr.: Offered Scary some kale chips that one time. Willy: Honestly? It's the I have two fish and two plates...lemme just stack these plates together and eat both of the fish moment. That's just such an inexplicable, what the fuck? moment for me.

Record of Ragnarok: What kind of pet do they have?
I'm like Tesla 🤣
Jack
I once read that people who are broken or haven’t experienced much love as children tent to choose animals that are less popular and sometimes seen as bad omens, such as black cats or ravens. So I see that Jack has a rat as a pet. They are intelligent and very clean animals, with an unfairly given bad reputation, and I think that suits Jack very well.
Nicola Tesla
Hear me out, Tesla is the proud owner of a turtle. There's a joke going around turtle owners that every time the turtle does something - such as yawns or falls asleep - you take a photo or video of it and happily show it to everyone. This is Tesla. The entire science crew has a mailbox full of this kind of spam, and their all sigh whenever Tesla sends them a new video of his pet doing absolutely nothing.
Poseidon
I think he likes animals in general. He despises humans and most gods for not behaving as they should, but animals are themselves. They do what is expected of them, they are excellent at being themselves, if that makes sense. So Poseidon probably has a dog that he has trained very well. The dog listens to all commends and generally behaves very well.
Hades
It’s canon that Hades has a pet - cockatoo. These animals require a lot of attention from their owner, which makes sense because we all know how lonely Hades is. He is literally playing chess with it! The parrot probably knows some fancy words like „magnificent” or „mellifluous”, and a whole bunch of wine names that it randomly says. Adamas, by the way, puts some effort into educating the bird too and incidently teaches it how to swear.
Beelzebub
Given how little he cares and how little he CAN care, the only option he has is fish. He gives it a good tank, he remembers to feed it and that’s it. They just exist. Damn… how depressing…
Loki
Two options. First: SAND ANT FARM. He watches it from time to time, mocking the ants for poor direction choices or just messing up with them for funnies. Second option is ferret. Loki finds them both annoying and interesting. There’s no boredom with them.
Ares
Ares thinks highly about himself, after all he is a part of the most powerful pantheon and the son of Zeus. He believes that he deserves only the best, which mean that whatever animal he gets, it will be a pure breed. If he chooses a cat or dog, it will receives a golden pillow to sleep on, a silver food bowl, the fanciest toys, the best caretakers, and… „the best owner”.
Thor
Thor has a cat. Most of the time they simply exist in their spaces and don’t interact. But every now and then a cat comes to Thor and demands a scratch, which Thor gives without hesitation. Loki once overheard Thor talking to his pet in those rare moments. Surprisingly, he speaks in a very gentle and caring tone, almost like mother to her child.
Hajun
He probably has a tank full of dead fish. Never cleaned, never fed, never bothered.
Lu Bu
Lu Bu has a pussy. He had no intention of having a pet, so the cat had to choose him, and Lu Bu obligated. He gives it lots of scratches and plays with it. Lu Bu is unfazed by the claws. Hearing her meow when he isn’t close puts him in a fighting stance. Nobody hurts his cat girl.
Hermes
Budgies! The guy has a lot of responsibilities, he's probably the last to fall asleep and the first to wake up, but he still finds time for his melodious pets. They always get the best snacks and for some unknown reason they become very excited when Zeus is around.
Göll
She has hamster, as small and cute as she is. Göll tries very hard to provide it a happy life, which probably means she’s trying too hard. She asks all his sisters for advice, and knowing how many siblings she has, she probably ends up with very conflicting opinions.
Zerofuku
Definitely rabbit. They are both full of energy, do not pose a threat and just enjoy themselves on a clearing somewhere.
Buddha
He doesn't have a pet, but he occasionally looks after Zerofuku’s and Göll's pets. He complains that he doesn't have time and that he doesn't care, but in the end he has a great time with the rabbit and hamster.
Noah
I think he ends up with a pigeon. He just feeds it from time to time in the same place and slowly tames it. Before he knows it, the bird becomes a new part of his life. He tells it about his problems, about Luna, Jack, Mother Goose and Shakespeare. This pigeon has therapeutic properties.
Qin
Definitely a husky. I see just two idiots keep talking to each other and arguing over nothing. The more the emperor demands something, the louder the husky's tantrum will be.

LIZZIE HEARTS content description below
Teacup, pencils, pen, gloves, wallet with a pic of kitty’s eye, sewing kit, lollipops, card with her mom on it. A perfume holder with 4 scents, “7:30”, “Loose change” “lick” and “Starshaped” what do you think they smell like ????? Idk. The clam’s pearls are lotion. A croquet ball. The colorful book is for school work. The red book is for fashion designs. The two pens next to it are what she uses to write they’re from wonderland. With a small clay ink container(not from wonderland.) Vodka shaped like an atomically correct heart. On the far left are cards her mother made for her with pieces of advice and the one on the top says “it is better to be gloved than bearded and better to be feareded than loved.” Which is cannon from “a wonderland world.”
Makeup: the two gold vials are lip stains in dark red and dark burgundy. We have a black mascara with a rabbit on it. And a dark brown lip liner with the Cheshire Cat ontop. A maroon blush with a clock with mushrooms and a bunny on it. Her brushes are chess pieces. And her comb is made out of bone and is a heart, her eyeshadow and foundation are basically like paint. With names like rubber duck, old tooth, fresh paint, scab, cirrus, storm, oz, royal tears, tea bag, tranquil, lavender dust, hamster holiday, berry, gem, feline, pig kiss, blushy widow. All makeup is custom made for Lizzie, she made the pallet herself though.
Her phone with a white rabbit sticker, strawberry, grey gloves, star, lips, lady bug, heart, a paper that says “home is not what you miss but the people there.” And a red bow with a gold chain.
This genuinely took 12 hours to draw and then I went to bed at 4 am and woke up at 4 pm…. PLEASE enjoy this has been my life for 24 hours.
