Urgh. I don’t know what to do.
My roommate bought a hamster last year named Pele.
I guess he was cool for the first months or so, but now I seem to be the only one to take care of it. This isn’t fair. Plus, I’m the busiest person in this household so I always forget and find Pele’s cage in disarray without food or water.
I really, really want to give him away but there are no takers. There are no outlets for me to sell him, and I wouldn’t feel right just leaving his cage next to the dumpster or something. I don’t know what to do at all.
If anything I’m the most mad at my roommate for committing to such an impulsive buy. When someone is so inconsiderate to another living being, that’s when I start getting angry. Not to mention that he just brushes the issue aside, not caring whether Pele lives or dies.
Urgh again. The frustration!

Aww I’d take him but I’m in Albuquerque. :[
You should list him on Craigslist, give him away to a good home or something. I’m sure someone will want him for their kid for Xmas or something. Offer the hamster and the cage for like $20 so that someone doesn’t just get him to feed their snake. Not that snakes don’t gotta eat but it seems like a waste to feed a pet to another pet. Iunno.
I’d really like to take Pele in, but like I said on your note, my apartment doesn’t allow pets. =/ Maybe you can try putting him up in the Facebook market? I know you probably want to have someone you know to take Pele, but that’s another option.
