Hamster power.

Hamsters are pretty good at video games. Maybe he would have done better if he and his hamster coach had mastered the super hamster wheel. Or maybe he should have brought along his slithery pal for backup. At least he tried, and didn't turn to the bottle for comfort. Here little guy, have some popcorn and some Elvis as a reward.
All of those videos are awesome. the piano one was hilarious, and the spinning wheel one was all too familiar; I have roborovski dwarf hamsters and they are a blast to watch. Also. cutest things ever.
Ok, I lied. I have one now. I just like to imagine the entire pantheon still alive and scampering frantically (Hera is the one that is left, Frika and Isis are the two ex-robos).
Yay hamsters. Thanks for the links.

Great videos!
Some more info on the hamster and snake:
Snakes usually have hamsters for lunch. But when rat snake Ao-chan and dwarf hamster Gohan-chan met at a Japanese zoo, it was love - and not at first bite. Now, the 120-centimetre snake and gray hamster are room mates, living together in a heated glass box.
Gohan-chan, whose name means "meal" in Japanese, was literally, meant to be the snake's dinner. "When we first found Ao-chan, the snake refused to eat so we went to a pet shop but was told they were out of frozen mice and suggested we try a hamster. However the moment we put it in the cage, it was instantaneous friendship and the snake seemed to have no appetite for it," said zoo keeper Kazuya Yamamoto.
But the love is obviously is shared only by the snake and the hamster. Hanna-chan, a mouse-hunting cat, has been eyeing Gohan-chan ever since Ao-chan decided to befriend it.

No tour of the youtube hamster tag is complete without a stop at Mocha's First Broccoli, which is simultaneously an exploration of the outer reaches of the cute factor and and a spooky excursion into the mind of the hamster obsessed.
he's going to do that thing with his feet again
LOL
