OUR LOVELY PETS

Karol's hamster


Karol: My hamster`s name is Stiuart and he’s a male.
Hamsters don`t live very long. They only live for about two or three years old . I keep him in a cage in the the house, His cage is on a small desk in the hall. I can`t keep in my bedroom, because hamsters are nocturnal and they are very noisy at night .

Every month my mum takes me to the shop in town. It `s my favourite shop. There are lots of animals there. I buy food. My hamster eats vegetables, seed , fruit and drink water. Stiuart is fluffy, smooth and fast. It has got long whiskers , sharp claws. a very short tail, and very very sharp teeth. I feed it every two days. I put clean wather in to his cage every day.
