I was going to get a hamster with my birthday money. We needed a cage, toys for it to play with, and enough money to buy food. Dad said we would get it in only one condition: I had to save my money for three weeks. Mom said I had to write down stuff about the hamsters by going on the internet and reading about them.
First of all, I should keep hamsters apart from each other. For me to keep dwarf hamsters, they should stay together because they go good together. We should put something in their cage for gnawing because their teeth are always growing. I would have to change the paper out once a week, but I'd have to clean up the pee and poop once a day. Hamsters like to sleep during the day and are awake at night.
Then, one day we went to a place called Books.A.Million and I saw something I wanted for quite some time now. It was three wooden trains in the same box. After I bought it, I didn't have enough money to afford all the stuff you need for the hamster. So, I didn't get one.
Now that that time is over, I'm planning on getting a plastic Thomas the Tank engine named Ferdinand with my leftover money. I think it was made after the movie "Misty Island Rescue".
That is really neat how you looked on the internet to find out about hamsters! I did not know they couldn't be together! That's very interesting. Sometimes it is a good idea to save up your money for something instead of spending it right away.... You might have been sad that you spent it and couldn't get your trains! Post pictures of your trains so I can see them!
