Maximillian...Max...or as Squidward calls him..."Boo"






Well here he is. The new wonderful and amazing Max. Isn't he so cute? He's just so cuddly and sweet and I love him so.
Well, now that I got the lying out my butt out of the way I can tell you how I really feel. If it looks like a rat and acts like a rat and smells like a rat...is it a rat? Heck no...it's really just a Syberian , Africanized, Dwarf, Teddy Bear Hamster. Maximillion is the new addition to our family. It was either him or a cat. I went for the smaller of the two and I'm really tring to love him, really I am, but it's sooo hard to love something that effing pees on you both times that you try to hold it and bond.

We went to Amy's a couple of weeks ago and Ash fell in love with Chandlers hamster. That's where it all began. Off to Sam's Club we went. She picked him out and we got the salesgirl/twelveyearold to help us get him out of the cage. After he bites her a few times we are all on the end of our seats watching the circus she finally gets him out and hands him to Ash. Ohhhh the cuteness! Then....in the middle of three teenagers, me and Jessa all saying Awww isn't he cute? Woooooooo Hoooooooo!!! He decides he is one of those little freaky flying squirrels or sugar bombers or whatever they're called and leaps out of Ashlie's hands and dive bombs about five feet onto the tile floor. That was when the earth stopped rotating...... We all freeze and wait...........His head twitches a couple of times, his right eye has a small seizure, and then he rubs some dirt into it and shakes it off! That's when we knew he was the hamster for us. Well, I would have bought him regardless because at that point I figured he wouldn't make the ride home.

Wondermax now lives in Squidwards room and he has a big green rolling ball on the top of his cage where he loves to stockpile his food under all the glorious fluff.I know it's because he thinks Jessa is the Devil and she is going to come in and steal his crunchy corn kernals,and she just might. That's how she rolls. Anyway I wanted you all to see our new addition. Welcome to the family Maxiepad!

LOVE IT! Cute pictures of the little rat or I mean maxipad. They are real cute until the odor starts to permeate through the house. Well, keep in there, ours only lived about 1 month, although Chandlers already talked me into another one at the end of the week. :!

Gotta love those rodents....NOT! We had 3 guinea pigs, and it was the big stink battle for years. Good luck keeping the earth spinning properly.

We just got 3 new kittens from Sugar (the cat Ashlie gave us). You are more than welcome to one (or all three) of them to get rid of that rat problem!! Just kidding.
