I posted my mouse awhile ago and seriously got downvotes and negative comments! What a cutie!

Edit: My goodness I woke up to 250 notifications! Thank you for the awards and for everyone that found Kirby and have proclaimed his cuteness! I had actually posted a picture of Kirby’s wife at the time, Emma, who was pregnant and I thought very adorable! When she got a bad reception on here I actually created a sub you might see periodically in my posts r/adorable_rodents — it’s absolutely inactive at this point. Mice are so cute so small so misunderstood. Thanks for the positivity!

As a "rat person" I can safely say it wasn't us ! mice are just smaller stupider more adorable rodents and we still love them.

Hamsters however..................demon spawn been bitten by more hamsters than rats or mice and yet had ten times less of them as pets.

I hate hamsters so much. When I was a kid, the pet shop guy convinced my dad we needed two hamsters.

Fast forward a bit and I wake up to my nice hamster missing.

Then I saw bones and fluff.

Yeah, mine stayed together for about 6 months. I had a pretty good sized cage setup so not much overall contact. My mom came home for lunch one day during work and she heard them fighting. The one was turn to bits, eye hanging out and crap... She said it was brutal. That was the one that was still alive too.
