As I said in my two most recent posts, my sister and I were out of town over the weekend visiting a friend for her birthday. She is an animal lover, so we went to the pet store with her...and Joy came home with a hamster! The poor little guy lost his eye - we don't know if he was born that way or got injured. As soon as we got home, my dad was already joking about his resemblance to Nick Fury. Good times, good times ;-). Anyway, because of his "deformity" they were giving him away for free. Tori (our friend) asked her parents if she could get him, but they decided it wasn't a good idea since she already has a "zoo": a rabbit, guinea pig, turtle, fish, etc. So Joy saw her chance, called our parents, and they agreed. Needless to say, Joy was ecstatic! By the time we got the little hamster back to our friends' house, Joy had decided to name him Harry (since then, she has revised it to Harry Edward Styles - and she claims that she isn't obsessed with One Direction! *rolls eyes*).
Here's a picture of Harry. That's Joy holding him. Sorry for the uber lame quality, but it's a webcam pic and we couldn't get him to hold still long enough!
You can see Harry's one eye in this shot. The color isn't very good because there is light coming in from the window. In reality he is a pale tan with some white patches. Harry's a Roborovski dwarf hamster (Robo), so he is really tiny. Most of his bulk is fluffy fur :P. He really is adorable; maybe I can upload a better shot later.
Here's to a long and happy hamster life for our little friend, Harry Edward Styles! :D
Blessings,
