This is Gatsby, a dark golden Syrian hamster we've had since the end of October. He is now 4 months old and has an insatiable curiousity.

1. One small step for mankind, one giant leap for hamsters.

3. Spider hamster, spider hamster, does whatever a spider hamster does...

4. Coming down is tricky ... especially when you have a fear of heights.

HAhaha, I got that song in my head AS SOON as I read this too! After seeing the Simpson's Movie, that damn song was fixated in my life's soundtrack for days!

OP, very cute shots!

I'm so sorry.

It's not something that I've looked into, but I think that hamster's near vision is generally very poor and that Gatsby mistook the stripes in the wallpaper for being bars that he could climb up. Silly boy.
