I was walking home last week-end and noticed a pet store with several hamsters in one cage outside in the freezing cold. (Sunday was very, very cold!). I decided to take one to 'rescue' him in a way. The pet store owner told me that this breed could live together so I bought two. Three days later they are trying to tear eachother to shreds so I had to buy a second cage. Now I have two lovely hamsters in two cages and hope someone may be interested in adopting one. Completely free - cage and all.

Please let me know if you are interested. I am in Gangnam by COEX.

And if you plan to attack me for this thread, just pass. I feel bad enough already that this didn't work out.

Thanks.

Just a bump to see if anyone is interested.

Everything is free from you. I'll bring him to you if you are not too far away. I am in Gangnam. I can send you a picture. He has a white belly with brown and black spots. Very quiet and needs minimal care. Food once a day, veggies once in awhile and water re-fill when it is empty. Maybe 10 minutes (more if you have time) of talking or petting a day.

I hope I can find a home for this little guy! I feel so bad for these pets in the pet stores.

Too bad I live all the way out in Bucheon ~ I would totally take the cutie off of your hands. I love hamsters. It's been years since I had one.
I hope you find a really good home for her/him.
If you don't find a home for it in a couple of weeks. Can you hit me back? I might be out that way after payday (6th).

Wow! I also did a stupid thing...

happened to be at Moran market on the weekend and saved two 4~5 month old kittens from being made into soup...

then I took them to the vet the next day and discovered they were both male...

My apartment isn't big enough for two male cats...

so I am willing to give one away for FREE!

p.s. - the vet already gave it its vaccinations (although boosters are needed).

Good God ~ you people are killing me....

I love kittens too. I'm a sucker for cute animals (I even flew my dog from Canada with me to Korea).

You don't live near Bucheon do you?

Same here. I love animals, particularly cats and dogs. I want to ask you where you are in case I get tempted to get a kitten. There is entire family of cats with the mother and four kittens where I live. I am tempted to catch them to adopt them. These animals aren't in the best environment and I wish I can do something to help them.

You can have them both for free (I think keeping them together is best - as they are brothers and are always running aroung "play fighting" with each other. Besides they do everything together - sleep together, eat together, play together, even use the "kitty litter box" together.

Both have been shampoo'd washed, nails trimmed, and had their first round of vaccinations. Of course in a month or two they will need to be neutered.

I will throw in all their belongings of course (kitty litter, food, toys, expensive water dispenser dish, etc) and they both have their health record-books from the vet showing the vaccinations they have received.

This is the same in my area. Lots of stray cats and families of cats around. I feel bad for them, but themany of them are now wild and impossible to catch.

If nobody wants the 2 kittens I have by Sunday - I have decided to take them to the Kitten rescue/adoption place at Itaewon on Sunday afternoon.

( http://cafe.daum.net/kittenshelter )

I discovered - I am just not in the right situation to have 2 kittens running around my apartment scratching my chairs, bed, tablecloths etc and wanting constant attention.

I am sure if noone takes them before Sunday - the kitten adoption/rescue place will provide them with good care until they are adopted out into a good home.

(Yes I know I was foolish for getting them - but I couldn't stand the thought of them being made into cat-soup at Moran Station).
