07 November 2007

Short Talk:

I am on one of the episodes of Deal or No Deal, now showing on ntv7 every Saturday and Sunday from 8:30pm.

I wasn't told which episode I'm in. Suffice to say, I bombed the game.


Missing Hamster Alert

I am heartbroken.

One of my pet hamsters escaped from the cage and jumped off an open window from the second floor, thinking she's Spiderman. (Or was it SpiderHam?)

I climbed on the roof and looked, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I had her for only less than a month.

For now, I'm placing a tiny box with some shavings and some food in it on the roof gutter, hoping that she'll come back one day.

You sure it wasn't gulped by a snake? Because you can catch the snake and eat it for revenge. Heheheh.

Posted by: tm at 07 November 2007 12:09 PM | Link to comment

Hope your hamster returns home soon.

Anyway, I find it quite cute how some guys have completely incongrous pets eg I know a big macho man who has a small shih tzu puppy and another rather smarmy guy who has a lop-eared rabbit (!) and you with hamsters.

jumped out of the open windows... hmmm doubt it will return.... meow meow are everywhere.
Maybe u will see it carcass one day.
I had 2 last time, they r smart... and actually know how to open the cage door, went out looking for food or hide some food somewhere then return back to their cage again ... acting like as if no one knows. You know, like those in the cartoon shows?

i think ur hamster died.. i had like A LOT of them... and some of them escaped.. and never came back. probably became yummy snacks for downstair-cats edi~ get a toy poodle~ its cuter and actually recognise u, and also, its afraid of height so u wun need to worry that it might try to be spiderdog

Posted by: Loo at 07 November 2007 1:39 PM | Link to comment

Here's a tip I learnt.
Put some food in a bucket and stack books outside of it so that it'll form stairs that lead up to the bucket. Hopefully the hamster will pick up the scent of food in the bucket, climb up to it and fall in and get itself trapped.

Posted by: Kenny at 07 November 2007 1:47 PM | Link to comment

Awww I am so sorry for you
Too bad I don't have hamsters so I can't tell you anything about 'luring' them back.
Anyways good luck and I hope that you can get her back:-)

Posted by: Yan Shan at 07 November 2007 1:55 PM | Link to comment

I read somewhere to leave ur cage or box door open and allow it to be easily accessible to allow your pet to climb in with stack of books etc. put their favourite food to let them get attracted to the smell of the food too.

My ham ham jumped out just few days back, but luckily i saw it running around the house.

Hope yours comes back soon Kenny!:)

Posted by: Sarah at 07 November 2007 2:01 PM | Link to comment

really, I think it might pay a visit to my house since every night this small creature will ransacked my trash in the kitchen.

Since my wife is pregnant, I cannot kill this small. tiny creature.

oops sorry it's a mouse :) heh it just look the same maa

Posted by: XiangMei at 07 November 2007 2:50 PM | Link to comment

i had a few hamsters last time.. and one of it used to run very fast everytime i uncaged it, and hid under the sofa, then to behind curtain..

why not try to attract her with some cheese and pizza?

my hamsters used to love it soooo much that they crawled up and down the cage with their nose sniffing...

kenny, hope you could find your hamster back.. btw, what's her name?

Posted by: mussy at 07 November 2007 2:50 PM | Link to comment

sadly, white faced robrovski's usually don't come back. i'm sorry for your loss!

Posted by: ladidaa at 07 November 2007 2:55 PM | Link to comment

look into the toilet bowl after your next crap....I'm sure she was one of your suppers last night.....

Posted by: I'm A Chicken With No Name. BWAK BWAK BWAK! at 07 November 2007 2:57 PM | Link to comment

and maybe you could put some talcum powder on the floor and leave it, to look for some trace on what are the areas she been/going to..

all the best hunting kenny!

Posted by: mussy02 at 07 November 2007 2:58 PM | Link to comment

man, your cute hamster thought it could fly, by jumping out the window :P

anyway, teasing aside...
hope you find it soon, usually it wouldn't last too long outside, esp. with cats & snakes around.

Posted by: xinyun at 07 November 2007 3:15 PM | Link to comment

Kenny, I got a method.

You know those sticky lizard trap that uses sticky glue. Put those all over your house. I caught 6 lizards with overnight.

Maybe you will 'stick' that runaway hamster of yours. haha.

Posted by: kslye at 07 November 2007 3:21 PM | Link to comment

Aww... I've reared about 30 over hamsters all my life... Have lost quite a few too.

Xiao Ai escaped while I was cleaning their cage, and thinking that she had crawled out into the garden, I found her one week later squeaking behind my Hi-Fi speakers!

And then a few months later, her husband escaped from the cage while we were sleeping and we lured him back 3 days later by leaving a food tray near the cage :)

I also had a stray cat who upturned the wheel (which was an external part of one of my cages) and ate my hamster... But I shall not go there.

Good luck with the lure... She might return!

Posted by: JenxGeR at 07 November 2007 3:26 PM | Link to comment

unsupervised hamster jumping out of the window = irresponsible pet owner. sorry, as a hamster owner myself, i am extremely appalled.

well, assuming that the hamster is still around your house compound, you could try this method. get a pail and drape a long towel on the pail edge so that half of the towel is on the floor (think: ramp) and the other half is in the pail. the part of the towel in the pail should be hanging roughly 3 inches from the base so that the hamster can drop in but cannot climb out.

then line bits of your hamster's favourite food up
the towel to entice it to climb into the pail. hamsters are usually crazy about dried mealworms and kuaci seeds, so you can try a combo of both.

hope this brings hammie home.

Posted by: hedonistics anonymous at 07 November 2007 3:41 PM | Link to comment

aww, don't worry Kenny. I'm sure she'll be fine :)
Your hamster's really cute!
Poor thing. Hopefully she will return to you.
Make sure you pray hard!

I guess she's swollen up by Kuching. Get it? Kuching? Cat? (yeah..lame, I know.)

Posted by: Az1 at 07 November 2007 3:55 PM | Link to comment

She is so cute... but, i dunno where to find her... Hope she will be back soon... Probably she just wandering around...

Posted by: Smallsilver at 07 November 2007 4:18 PM | Link to comment

scatter around your house with pairs of sunflower seeds.

hopefully, you can detect where your hamster is hiding so that you can set up a more elaborate trap at the right place.

Posted by: eng60340 at 07 November 2007 4:27 PM | Link to comment

your hamster might already end up as lunch of some stray cats on the streets

OMG!
Last time, one of my hamsters escaped too. Never found. They ran so fast and they are small too, so very hard to find. I remember i kept crying. even now, i hope for a hamster, playing around in my hands and running its wheels thingy....:(

(Sorry to scare you, just a warning. Is there cats around your house?)

Posted by: christine at 07 November 2007 8:53 PM | Link to comment

There's no way you can get your hamster back. I lost my hamster before and yes, it jumped off the roof when it came out of the cage. I found it dead a few meters away from the roof gutter. Most probably bitten by a cat next door.

You may consider a replacement.

Sorry to hear that. It seems that the things that we're always closes to us will always be gone, whether sooner or later. Something like this, but more precious to me, had just happened to me. I could only learn the lesson that the most important time is now - the most important thing to do now is to appreciate this very moment with the things are around me...

I heard that a hamster's corpse was found in the middle of the road getting squashed flat by cars near BDC and police had already send the corpse for autopsy. you better check with CSI:Kuching.GO!

Posted by: Hamster at 09 November 2007 12:49 AM | Link to comment

Kenny, a Robo the size of a fist is really scary. Since this girl is already out of your house, I'm afraid she's as good as gone.

But the next time your hamsters ran loose in the house, here is what you can do:

1) Cover up all the gutters in the toilets and kitchen.

2) Before bedtime, place a handful of sunflower seeds (say, about fours pieces) at a corner in each room.

3) Remember, keep all the doors closed for the night.

4) Every morning, count the number of sunflower seeds left in each room.

The room with lesser or none sunflower seeds means the hamster is most probably in that room. Narrow down your search to that room and look behind hard-to-reach places like cupboards and cabinets.
