"France was punished on Thursday for not taking proper care of its hamsters."

Look, nobody is going to want to breed if you carry them around in a sieve. That's just demoralizing.
The hamster in the second photo in the article looks like it's wearing a little black t-shirt!
@klaus By far the most important news in this story. "Great Hamster of Alsace appears to be wearing fuzzy black sweater, always."
Finally, I have something in common with France. Except it was the communal school hamster, not mine, and it WASN'T MY FAULT.
France better lay down a fresh new layer of sawdust and festoon the countryside with lab blocks STAT or risk being held in contempt of court.
I was working on some documents from a French lab the other day about testing drugs on mice and rats. I never knew they did such awful things to the poor creatures. Well I knew they did them, but not exactly what. So I guess its a general rodent thing?
And the best phrase of the day is "The Great Hamster of Alsace".
There are WILD hamsters?!?!?!
@punkahontas my thoughts exactly! but holy shit are those little guys cute.
