I gotta cosign Doran's points re: Geez.

Hamsters have breeders? Hamsters need help breeding? They are unique in the rodent kingdom if this is true.

The idea of a hamster named Tony Martin amuses me greatly.

that's not funny. (unperson), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 01:10 (twelve years ago) link

Congrats on the new ham, J3ff!
My family had an unusually stupid ostrich named Ozzy, it died getting eaten by dogs, so I think of it as an unlucky pet/animal name.

Voted for Dio, but like the Geezer idea better.

Ronnie James would be kind of a fun pet name. Who's that? Oh that's my hamster RONNIEJAMES

Write-in for Tony Martin.

We had a curly shaggy blonde medium-sized mutt. When people would ask what breed she was, I'd say, "She's a Bon Scott terrier."

bendy, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 02:29 (twelve years ago) link

dio, but only if you always refer to him as "ronnie james" or "ronnie james dio"

why not just get two hamsters?

buffandmaxsgaydad (Pillbox), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 03:05 (twelve years ago) link

Dio, but it can only be referred to as "Ronnie James Dio", otherwise all bets are off.

Another vote for Tony "The Cat" Martin, but you have to go for Dio, or maybe Padanova for the cognoscenti.

Dió means "nut" or "walnut" in Hungarian, which is kind of cute for a rodent, I think.

Thanks for your input, guys. That is, indeed, a pretty crazy amount of responses. I will share pictures as soon as he is in my care on Saturday.

Also – hamsters are awesome. My last hamster, Lemmy, was a total bro. That's why I'm getting this one from a breeder. Hamsters don't really have any trouble breeding, obviously, but the breeders breed them for cuteness and personality. And, of course, metal cred.

ilxor, Thursday, 14 June 2012 04:59 (eleven years ago) link

judging from the captions I'm pretty sure it's Ozzy

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 14 June 2012 05:51 (eleven years ago) link

it is indeed Ozzy. He's still a little hyper, but he's settling in nicely. He enjoys climbing on the walls and ceiling of his cage.
