She's a fuzzy femme fatale, a vermin vixen, a rogue rodent serial killer.
Somehow, our original female hamster has been the lone survivor of multiple cages full of hamsters. We already knew she had a predilection for eating her young. Today I found her innocently running on her hamster wheel with the skeletal remains of her two roommates buried in the corner.
What?!
Did she kill them and eat them? Did she hoard the food and let them starve to death? Is she that hard to live with? The male hamster cage has multiple fat and happy boy hamsters. But the female cage/nursery has a disturbing tendency to return to population: 1.
We decided that since we're down to four hamsters we'll breed the original pair again. So the oldest male goes back into the cage with the black widow.
Good luck buddy. Sleep with one eye open. Don't turn your back on her.
