Or at least, our new pet hamster. Not only does she have the most dashing hamster suite (pictured above, in case you were wondering what it was - no mere hamster cage for us!) but she has a really good lifestyle.
We were a bit concered because people kept telling us that hamsters are nocternal and would keep us up all night, but Amelia sleeps approx 22 hours a day, and has one hour of what I would call wriggling, and then every so often goes on her wheel for 5 minute bursts. She also has a ball that we can put her in to run around the apartment, and she does run, for a bit, and then curls up and goes back to occassional wriggling and napping (at which time we put her back in her cosy den.)
She really has a quite idyllic life, and every morning at least one member of the family is jealous!
