Today, my hamster gave birth. The babies were very cute and I couldn't resist petting one. Apparently touching a baby hamster will cause it's mother to reject and devour it. I am now know in my family as "The Hamster Slaughterer." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my hamster had babies. I came home just in time to witness her kick the mutilated bodies of her two babies out of her house, then crawl back in and go to sleep. Now my sister refuses to touch her and calls her a "baby-eating demon." FML
Today, I showed my family my new pet hamster. At the sight of him, my grandmother, who I had no idea hated rodents, let out a loud screech, causing my usually docile hamster to bite me and piss in my cupped hand. FML
Today, my new roommate decided to put his pet hamster in the same cage as my beloved hamster. Apparently he wanted them to make hamster babies. They are both males. His hamster attacked mine and tore it to pieces. I just finished cleaning up the mess. FML
Today, I woke up to one of my hamsters cannibalizing the other. FML
Today, I thought my hamster might be lonely, so I went to the pet shop and bought a new one to keep him company. The new hamster killed the old one. FML
Today, my sister brought her class hamster home from school. Somehow it escaped from its cage, and ran into my room. My boyfriend, thinking it was a mouse, stomped on it. I'm stuck cleaning hamster guts from my carpet, and have to explain to a kindergarten class what happened to their pet. FML
Today, my mom wanted to surprise me by buying me a hamster. When I got into her car, I was actually surprised and even said, "Hi" to the hamster. When we got home, the hamster was dead. FML
Today, I was looking after a hamster for a friend. My dog ate it. FML
Today, I found out my creepy, obsessive neighbor got a pet hamster and named it after me. He has been telling all sorts of stories about his hamster using my name, and he just told me in detail how it died of heart attack. FML
Today, my kittens hunted and killed their first prey. My hamster. FML

Today I was born, and this strange creature towered over my mother and my siblings, and touched one of my siblings. Later my mother decided to eat the sibling that the creature touched. Now I am terrified of being petted. FML

I'm sorry to hear that. I honestly didn't know that fact either. I don't blame you because you didn't know and therefore didn't purposely do it.

if u touch a hamster's offspring u leave ur scent on it, causing the mother to not recognize it. same thing with rabbits. I found wild ones in my backyard and picked them up and scared away the mother. it's because predators usually climb into their burrows and wait for the mother to come back then devour her. but ya fyl .3.

When I was 5, I put a hamster in the freezer. Apparently, I wanted to see it shiver, and forgotten about it. When I remember, he was frozen solid ;(

Wow. How could you NOT have the sense to know that messing with a newborn animal, especially that of a species known to devour its young at the drop of a hat, is a bad idea? Not a FYL at all. By the way, good job being irresponsible and breeding animals that you obviously know nothing about! Good job! YDI all the way.

I'm guessing you didn't bother to read up on breeding hamsters BEFORE you let it get pregnant? What actually happened to the one you petted...still alive or did it get rejected/devoured? If the latter...I feel more sorry for the poor little thing than I do you! So you sort of deserve it.

It's self-inflicted, but I don't think anybody deserves to be inadvertently responsible for something suffering such a horrible death...
