Pumpkin blends in perfectly with her lovely cage, she is getting very good at camouflage! Great captures or her having a wash too.

Sounds like she is going to be having a great Christmas!

Pumpkin will have an incredible Christmas I'm sure. How could she not; she has SKB as her Mum. I can't wait to see all the special gifts that you have been stocking up for her; I'm sure they will all be absolutely wonderful as you always purchase and create the greatest gifts ever. Pumpkin is awesome so she is deserving of only the very, very best. What a lucky girl!!!

Thank you dreamtree1234, cypher, Thin Lizzy and Coco61.

Pumpkin does blend in perfectly with her cage layout – I think she enjoys playing hide and seek with me – sometimes it does take me a little while to spot where Pumpkin is in her cage however either her big ears give away her hiding spot or she has so come over to the acrylic to beg for a cuddle. As Pumpkin was very impressed with everyone being able to spot her in her last camoflauging photo that she would pose for another – she says this one is a lot harder


Pumpkin woke me up the other night as her wooden wheel was rubbing on one of her chews – it was so loud. So I had to go over to her cage and sort it out. Initially Pumpkin looked at me as if to say “shouldn’t you be asleep!” and after sorting her wheel out Pumpkin started begging cuddles which made it impossible for me to walk away and go back to bed – so I had to give in and give her lots of cuddles. After her cuddles I scattered some treats around her cage to distract here so I could turn her lights of and go back to bed without feeling bad about walking away from her when she wants cuddles.

Today, I was surpised to see Pumpkin awake midday sitting on the roof of her house when I walked into my bedroom – as I often don’t see Pumpkin until 8:30. I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to spot clean her cage (mainly her house) when she spent some time in her carrier. Pumpkin also was happy to co-operate in her final halloween photoshoot – she was being so cute and cheeky (can’t wait to share the photos as well as some outakes). When I placed Pumpkin back in her cage I managed to get some more photos of Pumpkin including these two – one of Pumpkin's relly cheeky grin and another of her having a snack on the treats stashed away in her mushroom house.

Pumpkin’s Palace Halloween Makeover – 2017

I haven’t changed Pumpkin’s cage layout from her Autumnal cage layout however have added a few Halloween themed DIY’s to her cage – mainly lots of Pumpkin decorations – as you can never have too many Pumpkins!

So her cage theme now is Autumnal with a hint of Halloween! Here is a few photos showing the DIY Halloween decorations ...


Pumpkin has 4 small and 1 large cardboard pumpkins in her cage and 2 hanging pumpkin decorations.

Oh Pumpkin's Halloween decorations are fantastic I'll look forward to seeing how you made them

Pumpkin is excellent in her camouflage photos, she could get a job in Eros007's spy team I think

She is always very cute when she is grooming and I love the pic with her bum sticking out her mushroom house lol.

I'm looking forward to seeing her latest photoshoot and the outtakes

Love, love, love the Halloween decorations SKB. Now if I was a hamster, I'd want you to adopt me lol!
So love Pumpkin's pics, especially the 3rd, so made me laugh.

Oh, what happiness Pumpkin brings to my day just seeing her and hearing about all of her adventures with you. She is just so, SO cute and silly, too. I love that she is playing hide-n-seek with you and is quite the expert camouflager. What an impressive ham! Very sneaky hiding from us, Pumpkin; but Boo, I see you, too! You make me giggle so much. I love all of her pics, but the first one is especially precious. I just love how she is peeking out from behind the apple hang toy and you can see her eye looking straight into the camera to see if anyone has spotted her hideout. She also looks so cute with her cheeky grin. What a deservedly proud ham!

I love all of the DIY Halloween touches you have added to her palace. It looks amazing and truly festive. I'm sure Pumpkin enjoys having so many pumpkins in her cage. I am truly looking forward to seeing your darling's Halloween photo shoot and outtakes.

* * * * *

Psst, Pumpkin, it's me Eros! Mum showed me your latest camouflaging tricks and I am truly mesmerized with all of your incredible talent and expertise. You really are a pro at all things sneaky and will be a true asset to the spy team. I hope to see you tonight at HQ. I'm sure we will have tons and TONS of fun-filled adventures together. You are awesome!!! Love from your hampal Eros!
