Here are some more pictures of Tootsie, my new hamster, who is a bit older than she used to be.

Every time I photograph pets - hamsters, budgies, rabbits, alligators etc - I am filled with feelings of admiration and awe at the skill, patience and supernatural abilities of people who can photograph wildlife. Members of my menagerie are just downright perverse and cussid, and if these so-called speciments of domestication behave like that, how on earth does anyone get to photograph REALLY wild critters, such as sasquatch, the yeti and the Loch Ness monster?
