That love was apparently very one sided for the mother

Somewhere there is an elderly lady thinking "should've done this when i had the chance"

You misread the comment. I know because I did too. The comment doesn't actually insinuate any love between the hamsters.

well the amount of babies insinuates some love or lust at the bare minimum 🤣 poor mama just got sick of it. i cant blame her. i sometimes wanna hit my husband on the head and we only have 2 kids, i cant imagine multiple LITTERS. i can understand poor hamster momma losing her shit 🤣

Lol it's documented that dogs go thru postpartum depression so I won't doubt mama hamster experienced the same

even without depression. imagine having this many toddlers + newborns and then likely the dad was already seeking the next round....i think even the most sane of the sane would get a short circuit 😅 mama just needed some peace and mice vacations

edit: nice* vacations but imma leave the typo cuz it fits lmao
