Winner: Hamster_Fellow’s Clockwork

HH: Hi Clockwork, congratulations for winning hamster of the month! How are you feeling now?
CW: Oh wow, how am I feeling? I feel like a clock which has just landed on the hour, an alarm is ringing in me, I’m soooo grateful, and I have to thank everyone who voted for me, I didn’t think I had a chance of winning!

HH:  Tell us more about how you come to live with your owner, Hamster_Fellow.
CW: Well, I was in the pet shop with my brothers and sisters, and suddenly a girl looked into my tank. Tons of girls look at me, but not one spoke to me in a calm voice. I ran towards her, but, she walked away. That made me confused. Suddenly, her mum came and replied “So, do you want it?” She was sooo happy! I then got placed in a box, and then placed in a bigggg cage which I love to play in! Hamster is an amazing owner, and she always takes us out to play, and she always rewards us, we grow a special bond with her.

HH: Describe your likes and dislikes.
CW: I loooovveeee yogurt drops, and I love Hamster. Her calm voice, and the sound of her fish tank water really helps me feel comforted. I also like my wheel —even if it does keep the other hamsters in the room awake! I also love tubes,Ii don’t know why, perhaps that’s a place where I feel safe. Secretly I also like my fur, but don’t tell anyone, it makes me sound vain! I dislike loud noises like when Hamster plays the guitar, but she moves into another room for that. I also dislike the ball, I don’t know why. The other hamsters in the room love the ball, but I just hate it. But I don’t worry about that, Hamster always cuddles me instead

HH: Your name is really special. Do you really freeze for a moment and run around the next, all the time?
CW: Awwww, that’s so kind of you! -blushes- yes, that’s how I got the name I freeze in the middle of running!

HH: Anything else you would like to say to our readers?
CW: Well, I have to thank everybody who voted, it’s really made me feel special and loved by the HH community. I’ve never felt so happy. When Hamster told me I won, I was jumping with joy, and she was jumping around! But, I must say, all the other hamsters were ADORABLE, and I think we are all winners -nibbles on a yogurt drop- oh sorry, do you want one? -hands Dusty a yogurt drop-
