Meet Frankie

Meet Frankie! Our new little family member. I know what you're thinking... daddy left town and mommy's going "loco"... I'm thinking that too. A little critter that peeps and poos... sick. The hermit crabs are one thing - talk about low maintenance. What's a mom to do when your 8 yr old wants to spend their very own birthday money on this little critter and "surprise daddy"?! I just tried to go back to the day when I was little and went through MANY hampsters. I remembered how I just loved those little things and carried them around and sometimes forgot to feed them... but that's beside the point. Anyway, nobody really knows the life span of Frankie... all I know is that the people at the pet store said to "keep your receipt and if she dies within a week we can get another one"... I'm losing it.


Everybody needs to be able to say they've had a hampster at one point in their lifetime.... right? LOL
