Why are hamster owners on reddit so mental?
Go back.
these aren't even funny screencaps, what's the point of this thread?
Hamster / gerbil / ferret / rabbit owners tend to be severely mentally ill
>>5144251Are they supposed to be funny you fuck?
>>5144348They're not particularly interesting either. It is a pet you get for kids because they're pretty low maintenance, and kids are stupid and don't fully understand how consequences work, so they do dumb things an then learn and important life lesson about life and death, and live their lives with a little bit more empathy and gravity. Like the point is to let your kid kill it. I had gerbils as a kid. Worst thing that I ever did to them was snap off one's tail when I tried to pick it up. I felt bad, but they're also designed to drop their tails. Meanwhile the same mother fucker bit my nose and I still have the scar to this day. I had a pair, they were fine, then one day I woke up and there was only one, and a lot of blood, and then it stopped eating and would fill its food bowl with piss and eventually died. I don't think I had anything to do with it, I kept them fed with gerbil food, and they always had plenty of water. But they were a few years old so at the end of their lifespan.

>>5144833To be fair with a cat or dog you've got a solid 15-20 years barring accidents. With a hamster you've got what, 2 years if you're lucky. Not exactly a lot of time to become a beloved member of the family. Plus, almost no one is keeping hamsters as pets who aren't kids.
Surprisingly based. God created hamsters to suffer.
