I got a hamster!
Okay, I know I'm a horrible person because I bought a pet from a pet store. But it's a hamster; it's not like there are tons of people giving away unwanted hamsters!

His name is Mandu, which is Korean for dumpling. Not because he's a little dumpling, but because you could swallow him in one bite, just like a kimchi mandu. He's a dwarf hamster with chipmunk stripes, and I bought him the Cadillac of hamster houses. It has a wheel and a habitrail tunnel and a little plastic room lined with torn up Kleenex. Also a hamster ball, because he's an adventurous little fucker, and I love him.

Hopefully you have better luck with the species than I did. Sounds cute!

Thanks! He's really, really adorable. And a slightly more responsible adoption than a cat.

That is THE cutest name for a hampster I've ever heard. Makes me really wish I'd had a hampster as a kid :( I was deprived.

Thank you! I'm glad you like it, because I put a slightly ridiculous amount of thought into what I should call this hamster.

Well, if you're ever in the neighborhood of South Korea, you can definitely come play with Mandu!

lol I'll definitely keep that in mind. In case I, you know, fall through the earth and end up on the other side of the world.
