Who's Skippy?
Skippy was our hamster.
He doesn't care
[asking curiously] What happened to Skippy?
[Defensively] Nothing happened to Skippy.
Every time Mom put her hand in his cage, he'd bite her.
And laugh.
Hamsters don't laugh.
Oh, this one laughed, trust me.
So finally she got fed up.
Of being laughed at by a hamster?
Well yeah!
And she stopped cleaning it's cage. Instead, every day she'd stuff some Kleenex in there.
You didn't.
It was the quilted kind.
So this keeps going on and the cage is just a cage full of Kleenex that moves a little, and the smell - really good.
I can imagine.
No, no, you can't!
So she takes the cage to the place where we bought him, waits for the sales guy to go behind the desk, and dumps it on the counter, then bolts.
You abandoned your hamster?
Look, I know it was bad, but this was a vicious hamster. This was like a "Damien" hamster with little beady eyes and a big forked tail and a cape with a hood and... bye bye Buttercup. Bye, Luke.
You did the right thing.
Uh, I want a pet.
