I
have always loved animals. When I was little, I used to pretend that
my teddy bears were real, and when I was about twelve I felt a hamster
for the first time. It was the softest thing that I had ever touched.
After my precious anole died, I went on a campaign to convince my dad to
let me get a hamster. My efforts finally paid off and I got
Athena. Athena was named after the Greek goddess of war because she is
tough and courageous. No challenge is too hard for her. Once she sets
her mind on something, nothing can stop her. She is curious about
everything and loves to explore. If I don't let her out during the day
then she will rattle the bars of her cage at night. Athena walks with a
certain strut like she is better than everyone else. She thinks that she
really is a goddess. When I got her, I never dreamed that she would have
so much personality. It just proves that big things really do come in
small packages!
