A new pet?

[phantasy]

One item about hamsters: They're nocturnal! The wheel will be rollin' all night every night. Which is why we switched to gerbils, after the hamsters wore out.

Lol! My old hamster used to have a little metal wheel that we would run on every night. It drove my aunt up the wall, until we finally had to put his cage in the basement.

The cage I have my eye on is a plastic one, and it has a plastic wheel on the inside, attached to the wall. I'm just scared that he may chew through the plastic. Which reminds me, I have a story!!

I used to have a Hermit crab. Said hermit crab decided to molt his claw about 2 days after I bought him, and my mother thought he was dead. Said hermit crab went in the trash while I was at school.

I kept the cage. It was made of thick plastic, while the lid was just flimsy pink plastic. This is important. The cage looked like this. http://www.crabbyshack.com/images/crab_cage.JPG

My mother was a little weird. When I say weird, I mean she used to catch the field mice we had in the house, and keep them for pets. The second one she caught managed to chew through the flimsy plastic at the top and escape.
