The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

Or at least that's what Mochi thinks. Mochi is a funny lady. She has developed a habit of taking from Pudding. In fact, she's always trying to get the food that Pudding stores in her cheek-pouch and just now she grabbed the yogurt drop that Pudding was feasting on. And it's not like I only give treats to Pudding, I give them equal amounts but Mochi just like to taking Pudding's, even if its half-eaten. What a weird hammy!

"You're not talking about me or are you?"

Pudding is chilling underneath the tissue hat she created herself! A masterpiece right?

Separation, maybe reconciliation.

I had to separate my hamsters because what began as playfights took a more serious turn and they turned out-right aggressive toward eachother. Several days ago I woke up to find blood spattered all over their bedding, and that's when I knew this was no play. I checked on both of them and I couldn't seem to find where they were wounded.
It's been 3 days since they have been separated by a screen door mesh I made straight down the center of the tank. I purposely made it out of the mesh so that they could still see and smell eachother in the hopes that they would be able to reconcile.
Well... I just went to check on them and I found a pleasant surprise. Mochi (the more energetic one) was no where to be found on her side of the tank. I was about to break out in a sweat when I looked at Pudding's half and found her cuddling next to Pudding. Now they are playing and running in and out of Pudding's toilet roll. Mochi must have climbed up the mesh and jumped over to Pudding's side of the tank. Mochi always loved to play with Pudding from the beginning, but I think she's a handful even to Pudding.

I am still going to keep a good eye on them, but I really hope they would get along. :]

My girls!

On Thursday I became a mommy to my two girls, Mochi and Pudding. They are robo hamsters and can I tell you... they are so adorable! The girls are super fast and skittish, and I can see it'll take a while for them to be tamed. I look forward to bonding with them.

Mochi is much more timid than Pudding, she likes to stay in the house or sleep under tissues or hide out in the toiler roll, while Pudding is much more adventurous. Pudding loves to run on the wheel and she is the first to come when I offer food. Mochi follows only after she sees Pudding do something first, it's so cute and funny!

Last night I stayed up and watched them playing on the wheel- they both love the wheel! The wheel is too small for the both of them at the same time, but they tried to make it work nevertheless. They are so fast that they end up getting flung out of the wheel. Mochi halts the spinning wheel with her paw and that's how they switch off turns.

Here are the girls nibbling on a piece of broccoli. They were taking a nap under some tissue.

You gotta love those girls~
