After Frisky died, I was pretty upset, but then I decided to get another hamster. I got a Djungarian hamster–the pet store employees didn’t know if he’s a Cambell’s Russian or a Winter White. It doesn’t really  matter anyway. His cage is a mesh of mostly Habitrail cages and one Crittertrail cage I got for my birthday. He also has a little dust bath thingy that I also got for my birthday. Thanks, guys!

I named the hamster Oreo because he looks like an Oreo. My mom told me about the Oreo thing with Barack Obama. But it was such a good name for my little hamster that I named him Oreo anyway. So, neither my hamster or his name imply or say or have anything to do with the Oreo-Barack Obama thing. It’s just a coincidence. I got him on February 24.

Oreo is a kind of strange hamster. For a few days, he was sleeping inside the tube, underneath the dripping water bottle. Also, he doesn’t stash his food anywhere–he just puts the food in his cheeks and takes a little piece out when he’s hungry.
