Lately, Rodney has taken to staring at me and then blinks with his right eye.

I've just read up on it and learned that hamsters only blink with one eye because they are prey animals and rarely blink in front of a human who can be seen as a big predator.

It went on to say that a hamster only blinks in front of a human he trusts.

I'm really chuffed with that.
