I purchased a hamster for my 14 year old daughter – I couldn’t resist – the eyes. Anyway, I told her that they smell nice like cedar chips at first – because that’s what’s in the cage, but after awhile, there are other things in the cage too – and the smell changes.
Well, she fell in love with him at first sight – I told you it was the eyes - and she named him “Howie”. And, a few days later, she admitted that what I said about the cedar chips was true too, and that Howie wasn’t so “sweet smelling” anymore.
It’s a good thing that Howie is only a stuffed hamster!
