Cold-weather coat
As the temperature drops, my concern for my hamster rises. I feel the need to get a coat for it, but I want it to be naturally comfortable. This leads me to the idea of a hamster-hair coat. But would such a coat feel natural or be disturbingly gruesome to a fellow hamster?

Hamster Dance
My hamster and I love this song! (It's the hamster dance).

Convince
I was using a piece of food to convince my hamster to go into its cage. Then I felt bad because it seemed like I was tricking the poor thing - "Here's some yummy food...Gotcha!" It was at that point that I realized "con" is the first part of "convince"!
Normal smell
Call to vet: I just realized that I'm not sure whether my hamster smells funny because I don't know what they're supposed to smell like. Can you tell me?
Receptionist: Normally hamsters smell funny around the 30th of each month so we don't let people like you talk to the doctor. *pause* Hold on.
Vet: What they're supposed to smell like? Hamburgers on a grill.

Ink jet
This doesn't have anything to do with my hamster (yet), but I was thinking about putting running shoes on an octopus and calling it an "ink-jet sprinter."

Short tail
Call to the vet: "My hamster's tail seems too short to me; is that why it always seems to waddle like it's off balance?"
Vet: "Yep. I think you might need to put a toothpick on the end."
