Default The adventures of Key Lime and Tangerine!

5/12/17

Tangerine-
So last night my little brother was being really mean. I tried to fight back but mommy had to put me in a small plastic box. I freaked out, so I started frantically chewing a hole in the plastic. Apparently mommy knew what I was trying to do so she put thick brown strips over my chew hole and in the corners. How rude! Apparently when I clawed at the brown things it made a lot of noise, so mommy moved the plastic box. I really wanted out, so I took a risk and escaped from the box. Mommy panicked and blocked off all the hiding places, but I'm so fast and I had great fun outrunning her several times as she chased me around the room. Eventually I got tired and hid behind a box. Another human, bigger than mommy, came into the room and joined my little game. But after they found me behind the box I ran behind another big box, but they put cups in front of both of my escape routs. I thought one of the cups had a treat in it, so I went to check it out but then I was dumped into a very tall and big bucket with bedding, food and some yummy cucumber. Now I'm stuck in this bucket and I can't chew through or climb to the top. I'm going to bed now, hopefully I can get a bigger cage soon.

Key Lime-

I was just so mad at Tangerine, I couldn't help but show him who was boss. Apparently mommy thought I was being too mean so she took my brother out of the cage. It's relieving to not have to deal with him now, though it's kind of weird to be without another cage mate for the first time. I was just enjoying myself whenever two humans suddenly made it daytime, and they were being really loud. Who knows what they were doing, humans do many silly things. I went to bed, and for the first time Tangerine wasn't in the burrow, nor was he anywhere else. I guess he's gone. I can't say I miss him, though. He was annoying.

Crystalroborovski, this is Dreamtree. I enjoyed reading this post and hearing the both Tangerine and Key Lime's side of the story. Isn't it always such a funny thing that whenever their is a disagreement, two totally different sides of the story always seem to exist? I am glad that you were able to separate the two of them, and you were able to catch Tangerine before he could get into any mischief or harm.

To Tangerine, From Eros:
Oh, you poor, POOR Tangerine! I know it must be so difficult being chased around by humans after just being tormented by your hammy bro last night. I suppose that you just can't win can you? How rude that the two humans just don't understand the need for utter and complete hammy freedom! Maybe after a nice long nap, you may just wake up to realize that this was all just a bad dream.

To Key Lime, From Eros:
Key Lime, I know that it may appear to be commonplace to have the occasional squabble between sibblings, but as you can see it doesn't always payoff to be so vocal about it. Now you are both in a timeout and you got your mum so scared. I do hope that you learned your lesson, and you give your mum and grandmum a lot of whisker kissies to make up for you naughty deeds last night. Oh, well! At least you got to stay in your own cage. Yippee, for winners receive ALL!

Hi dreamtree! Your post made me giggle, yes it's funny how the two sides of the story are always different. Well, I can't say Tangerine didn't get into any mischief when he escaped, the little bugger is so darn fast and every time I was right on top of him he escaped. A lot of sweat, tears and cusswords later I finally caught him. Now I have a case of escaped hamster paranoia lol.


To Eros, from Tangerine:
Oh yes Eros, finally someone who agrees! Hopefully all of this was a dream, but I am glad I don't have to flee from my mean brother every night if he attacks me. I had a lot of fun outrunning mommy and grandma but I got scared, there was no food or water or good places to hide. I've never been in a cage so big, I don't even know if it was a cage!

To Eros, from Key Lime:

Ok, maybe I was a little over dramatic with my voice and fighting skills, but hey, how can you resist when your brother is being so annoying? Now I kind of have a bit of regret because I'm alone, but I can finally breath a sigh of relief.

Tangerine-

Whew, I'm flustered! So first I get taken out of my home, then out into a small plastic box, then I send mommy into a panic as I run all around her room, then I'm dumped into a super tall bucket, THEN I get moved to another cage! What an eventful 24 hours! Mommy moved me into my new home, hopefully I stay there for awhile. It's just as big as my old home. It doesn't have as many toys and cool things as my old home but I overheard mommy saying she would fix that. I'm really scared now- I've heard so many loud noises that scared me before I moved into my new house! I'm afraid I'll hear those noises again so I go back into my safe, cozy burrow at the smallest sound just in case. I kind of miss Key Lime, whenever mommy brought us home Key Lime would go out of the burrow and get food for me because I was scared to come out. Now I have to do everything on my own. I'm glad that I don't have to put up with my brother though- he was getting to be really mean to me.


Key Lime-

Not much has happened lately, except that my brother isn't here anymore. I'm scared I'm going to be taken out of my house too, so I only come out when it's really dark and mommy isn't watching me. I wonder what happened to Tangerine? We were fighting and then BOOM- this giant hand used a cup to attack us and took Tangerine away. I'm glad I don't have to keep my dominance over Tangerine- he was pretty good at fighting back when I apparently took it too far. Though I do wonder where he is and if he's ok.

It sounds like it's been an eventful 24 hours for you two! Worry not though tangerine, you'll soon learn how to work things out on your own. Looking forward to hearing how these two settle in

Tangerine, Lime, it sounds like your mom has her hands full with you both!!

It was really fun to read about your antics from your perspective. I really like this kind of threads.

I hope you guys keep us posted!

Key Lime-
Yesterday mommy added this cool new hiding place to my cage! I heard her saying she was tired of the soft white stuff (I believe it's called paper bedding?) into the sand. She used a fence thingy to section off the white part and used a bridge thingy to make it easy for me to get to the other part of my cage. I didn't find the bridge to be of much use, except that it makes an awesome place to hide!
Mommy also put more sand in my cage, which I had fun digging in this morning. I am very puzzled as to what happened to my hammy bro- I can hear the familiar squeak of a wheel but the sound is coming from somewhere outside of the cage. Oh well, maybe it's just my imagination. But now that Tangerine is gone I've been scent marking e erything in my cage because it now belongs to ME and I don't have to share!!! I overheard mommy calling me "a little brat." Not sure what that means but it didn't sound very nice!

Tangerine-

Oh, I'm having the time of my life! Mr. Bossy Pants isn't around to tell me what to do or claim everything in sight. I have a nice cozy burrow all to myself and I can eat all the sunflower seeds and veggies in sight without my brother stealing them or wrestling me to the ground just to get a taste of whatever I'm eating! I can explore all I want without being afraid of getting attacked out of the blue. I think this is my permanent home now. After exploring it I've decided I like it. I discovered a small cup looking object which I heard mommy call a "mini terra cotta pot." Whatever that means. Whenever mommy gets on my nerves I just go inside of it with my booty pointing to her face. Haha!

Humans just don't understand us do they?
Also I love the cage, it looks really nice.

I like the little pineapple in the cage Glad to hear your boys are living life to the full after the separation. They sound pretty delighted that Mr Bossy Pants isn't around and that Mr Bossy Pants doesn't have to share with his brother anymore lol.
