This pic reminds me of the first pet that ever entered our household. My brother was pretty neglectful (it was his pet), and in the end, our poor hamster had a ghastly death. It's always haunted me, and I always felt it affected my karma. I hope I meet our old hamster in heaven someday, and that he (or she? I forgot the gender) will shake my hand and forgive me for my part in failing to keep him alive or happy. Maybe we'll even be friends. That would be the best.
Watching hamsters eat is both delightful and frightening. It always appears that they are choking because they fearlessly chomp on food twice the size of their head. But their gusto is so exciting and bizarre.
