it's a hamster.

[–]Sheku 2 points3 points ago

Pretty sure "A Mouse?! WHERE?!" is what the hamster is supposed to be thinking.

[–]shawtywtits 0 points1 point ago

why would a hamster be afraid of a mouse?

[–]Sheku 1 point2 points ago

Hence the joke...

[–]shawtywtits -1 points0 points ago

I don't get it ;(

[–]Fallout 3 points4 points ago*

Confirmed. This is an albino dwarf hamster. I have one. :)

EDIT: n00b mistake - it's a Syrian, biggest giveaway is the paws - dwarfs tend to have quite stunted legs.

[–]shawtywtits 3 points4 points ago

you sure? it looks too big for a dwarf to me.

[–]ThatGreenSolGirl 0 points1 point ago

Not a dwarf at all, look at the face. It's a Syrian.

[–]Fallout 0 points1 point ago

If it is a Syrian, it's quite a young one. This hamster is no bigger than my Dwarf.

However you are probably right - its paws are the giveaway here, my dwarf has very short legs :)

[–]ThatGreenSolGirl 1 point2 points ago

Definitely a baby, probably no more then 3 months old.

I'm glad we got to the bottom of this pressing matter :P

Can't have this gif reposted without pointing that out in the comments first.

[–]legendhairymonkey 8 points9 points ago

I just watched that 76 times.

[–]method18 12 points13 points ago

Mouse: "SHIT."

You: "What?"

Mouse: "I LEFT MY OVEN ON."

I only know him from The Riches. Is the drag part of his regular schtick?

[–]imbetterimback 2 points3 points ago

Still one of the cutest things I've ever seen

[–]Zarathustra92 1 point2 points ago

I love rodentia.

[–]Katavina 1 point2 points ago

Totally cute!

[–]laurekins 0 points1 point ago

Holy crap that's good stuff

[–]LoriStrode 0 points1 point ago

Seen this before but it's so adorable.

[–]7a50n 0 points1 point ago

I have that same toy. The ear is an on/off button.

[–]LovableContrarian 0 points1 point ago

Can someone edit out the first bit (where the guy touches his ear) and maybe zoom in on the mouse a bit? Would make a perfect reaction gig.

[–]CaptStiches21 -1 points0 points ago

"The fuck was that?"

[–]fairwayks -2 points-1 points ago

Poor little guy...just heard his mother screaming from the other room.
