Another hamster baby!

Mum called me @ home yesterday morning when they were shopping for grocery. My parents saw a hamster running in a plastic container near an aquarium stall in a wet market @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 10. They found the hamster pitiful as some of the sawdust were wet with water spilled from a plate, the hamster's bum looked wet. No sign of food was around. Sunlight was shining into one side of the container. Mum asked whether we should buy the hamster and rescue it from its horrible living conditions. I told her why not as our house has room for another hamster. (We have 3 winter whites and 1 campbells, each living in a "bungalow" aka big plastic container) They bought the hamster @ $6 and Mum told the owner that he should put the hamster's container in a shady place.

The hamster should be at least 6 months old. Quite puny. I still can't tell whether it's a boy or a girl but sis named it Pip. Pip must have never seen so much food in its life and it stuffed its cheek pouches with food (looking like a furry cobra) and run around the new house and on the exercise. Here are some cute photos of Pip:
