Pidgin
is a pearl-white Russian Dwarf Hamster who lives a life of
luxury. She came to stay with us, her human servants, in June of 2001
when her original family moved away from the area. Since that time,
she's acquired a fancy cage with a large plastic nest-house and the
hamster version of a hot tub (a chinchilla dust bath). It even has an
elevator (a plastic box) that she rides in the evening when she comes
out to play. She insists on being fed by 9 p.m., and if her food is
late, she jumps on her cage bars until her demands have been met. She is
unusually talkative for a hamster, but when she's on an outing in the
family living room, she is quiet and polite, and likes to play with the
television remote control buttons.
