So, what did we get anyway? (And no the first photo is just a "dummy" photo so as not to give it away, LOL. That's actually my cousin's bunny.
Well we got our new pet yesterday afternoon. We wanted TWO but the others were spoken for. They say a new litter will arrive in 2 weeks, so we'll probably go get another one then.
We got a.....
Baby dwarf hamster (anyone know the specific breed? They weren't marked at the store)

This little one is not much bigger than a cotton ball and is super soft and sweet.

I imagine it can't be all that old since it still has balance issues (it tried to look up and wound up rolling on it's back. It also fell backward off it's food dish when startled, lol)

We don't know gender, but we suspect it might be a female.

And Gideon has chosen the name SHADOW out for it.

Such a little Shadow, but such a CUTE Shadow!
