This week the theme is…red.

So let’s see the red stuff.

A one eyed hamster called Odin

It’s now been a full week since we brought home Odin from our local shelter and he is such a happy little guy! He doesn’t flinch when being touched and will climb onto my hand if my jumper is covering it! In time I hope to get him to a place where I can pick him up so health checks will be easier
