Default The cutest of Hamsters !

Hi Guys, we run a Animal Ambulance / Pet Carer service where I live, and also do a small amount of animal boarding, last year we looked after this Hamster, she was so tame, this photo was taken on our bed with the play log from her cage, I was busy trying to keep her on the bed, each time she wandered off to either side I ushered her back to the middle, all the while trying to hold my 300D I had at the time on her, anyway she suddenly started sniffing round her log and got up on it, and in protest or something, stood up on it and stared right at me ! I was really pleased with this one, just wondered what you guys thought......

You're right, it's cute.

The depth of field looks a little shallow, her rear legs look out of focus.

Damo,

Could have come from Toys 'R' Us as a best-seller. But why am I thinking "Dolly Parton?"

I've seen stuffed toys that look like real animals. This might be the first time I have seen a real animal that looks like a stuffed toy. It looks cute.
