BBC Earth – Hamsters!
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

That spot to get through to the second drop in Crystal comes to mind for that bendy spine!
I am trying to get rid of rats on the property, so the first thing I see on BtB is a rodent staring me in the face.
Fun video. I had no idea hamsters could store and transport that much food. And, I can understand, popular in a cave.
“Hey, you got s spit-free nut?”
“Sure!”
My daughter had a hamster when she was younger. We had one of those plastic hamster-balls so the little guy could navigate the living room without undo attention from the Cat.
Long story short– those hamster-balls are not 100% cat-proof.

ref your rodent problem–don’t let things get out of hand!

Cats. Cats are good for rat problems.
I used to raise hamsters. They are amazing creatures, but prefer their solitude rather than socializing in groups. Rats, on the other hand, tend to be more social animals and can develop depression if they are alone.

“Since 1929, the British Prime Minister has employed an official cat called The Chief Mouser to exterminate vermin at 10 Downing Street.”

That was funny. Good thing I wasn’t drinking or I would be down a keyboard right now.
