Caged and Confused

So Bean escaped today. Twice!

First thing this morning we discovered that he'd managed to scratch through the plastic in his cage, and then through our temporary fix of it. I was so terrified that the cat would have found him first, so she was put upstairs while we rooted around in the dining room.

My worst fears were confirmed when we saw what looked to be entrails on the floor. I started crying and just couldn't believe what had happened. How could I be such a rubbish pet mummy?

Then, through my tears, I started laughing. Stuart looked at me a little gone out, till he also realised what I had suddenly found so amusing - we were looking at was a chocolate eclair that the cat had previously attacked. Messy - yes. Brains - no.

Stu found and and we contained him, then Stuey bought him new bits for his cage!

However, when we were putting it together, we missed a bit and he then escaped again! Stu caught him and he now has an amazing hamster mansion.
