There are two things in the world worth struggling for: freedom, and animal cookies.

HAHAHAHAHA! OMGosh that is one silly hammie. I bet he got so dizzy he forgot about eating a cookie.

I dunno if the hammie's dizzy, but I sure am! Notice that he reversed directions at one point. When I was a kid, we did that, supposedly to counteract the dizzyness from spinning around in one direction too long. Didn't seem to work in hammie's case -- sent him right over on his little back! (Boy, those paws were a scramblin' trying to get back upright).

I think even the cookies were dizzy by the end of that!

Please give the little guy a cookie! No wonder he couldn't walk straight LOL

Liz
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:19 AM

Hahaha! He just keeps going!

Angela
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:21 AM

Oh the little kicking feet. I'm going to look at this over and over and over and over and over go the other way over and over and....dizzzzzy fell down and can't get up

sydney

SQUEEEEEEEEEE!!! I want heem!

(And the cookies too.)

I laughed so loud and hard I just about burst my gut looking at this hilarious and very Qte video! I go ga-ga over cookies, too! Too moische! If I were there I'd give him the entire bag of animal cookies, and then some of my other cookies as well. Heck, he is so darn Qte, he can have ALL my cookies! Don'tcha worry, though. I can always go to the store and get more later on.

I'm giggling madly at my computer now...I love when the little guy drags the treasure off to the other room!

Jaye
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:24 AM

I am so glad I didn't see this at work--I'd have been at my desk, hand clamped to mouth, emitting high-pitched animal noises.

I'm glad I wasn't taking the video, either--I'd have been laughing so hard it would have been jumpier than the Homicide: Life on the Street vomitcam.

No waiting for the payoff on this video: instant ham-larity!

I'm seriously glad my boss isn't in right now. He would have come to investigate my chortling over little hammie's FEETS all kickin and squirmin and wigglin...Hehehe

kelly

Oooh! that made meh dizzeh!

God, I love watching his little back legs and pantaloons pumping up and down as he scurries into the kitchen. Hahaha!

That is so adorable! Now I want a hamster ^^
She looked like she was trying to escape after she did all that spinning lol

SarahSuiren
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:35 AM

Don't you DARE touch his cookies! He's just like me. You should see me with my cookies. I'm just as possessive. LOL

Anyone who DARES touch his bag of animal cookies will face certain death, and it won't be pretty.

Noel
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:37 AM

Oh My Heck!!! How prosh!!! How qte!!! How ... perfectly hammie!!

SeaBreeze
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:38 AM

Hammie tocks! I keep staring at those fuzzy wuzzy hammie tocks! So cuuuuuuuute, widdle tocks!

Noel
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:39 AM

Aaaa! I know the music from childhood and it's driving me nuts. Somebody please tell me that it's either (a)Night on Bald Mountain (b)the Dinosaur movement from Carnival of the animals, or (c) something by Grieg. sorry to be a dork, but's really bothering me.

oh and the hammy is DIVINE!

anner
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:41 AM

I am at work, and I'm sitting at my desk trying not to giggle out loud (suppressing that much laughter is actually kind of painful).

He didn't look like he really *needed* the cookies--his chubby little buns and haunches kept cracking me up.

heidilynn
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:42 AM

OMG! hammie on his back, cookie still in his mouth, and all his little footies swinging helplessly in the air. Too much!

Ray
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:43 AM

First I stared it completely hypnotised - until the poor thing fell on his back. Those teeny tiny feet whipping the air - too much. I shall never recover.

Lisa
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:46 AM

QUEET following me! I must eet zee cookies in peace!

Pheas
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:49 AM

The fact that it's "Dance Macabre" made me laugh along with the cute.

leprechaun
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:49 AM

Anner - It's definitely not night on bald mountain, and I don't think it's Grieg. You might be right about Carnival of the Animals, but I don't think it's the fossil movement.

h3
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:50 AM

OK, crisis averted. It's the "Fossils" movement from Carnival of the Animals by Saint-Saens. We should really hear more of this piece on this site...if for no other reason than that there's a movement called "Wild Asses."

anner
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:51 AM

OMG I'm watching this again and again and squeeing like an idiot.

Somebody help meeeeee.

Subhangi
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:52 AM

Oh, ok, maybe it is the fossil movement - Wikipedia says Saint-Saëns quoted the Danse Macabre in Fossils.

h3
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:52 AM

lebrechaun -OMG! You're right. I'm wrong. Still Saint-Saens, right? I am a totally failed product of consevatory training. But proudly fulfilling the stereotype of non-studious singer.

anner
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:53 AM

h3 - aha. that explains why i actually listened to a clip of the Fossil mvt. and was still wrong...

I like how it's a waltz and the hammy is going around in circles.He looks like a wind-up toy!

anner
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:54 AM

Ohh, this made me laugh so hard!!

Not lettin' go, NO NO it's MY cookies, dammit!! [butt waddles down hallway]

jaypo
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:54 AM

GENIUS!!

Deb!
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:55 AM

when he tips over...are those "hammiloons?"

anner
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:55 AM

The music for this was certainly perfect. Too cute. Reminds me of all our family's past hamsters.

Mindy Thornton
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:56 AM

Anner - the song is "Danse Macabre" composed by Camille Saint-Saëns and though while not from "Carnival of Animals," Saint-Saëns also composed it as well.

(according to Wikipedia, the Dinosaur movement and Danse Macabre employ similar xylophone motifs, so that may be why is sounds familiar)

Not sure if you're a Buffy fan, but you may remember it from one of their episodes (at least, that's where *I* remembered it from).

As for the hammy, I think my brain just as'ploded.

chicklet
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:57 AM

OMG the music i think totally makes this most hilarious.

Rae
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:57 AM

D'oh! I was too late! :(

Note to self: don't be so wordy next time.

chicklet
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:59 AM

Yes, we do need a part two where hammie gets his cookie!! Just too cute....

Sissy
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 08:59 AM

Thanks, Chicklet. There are a number of ominous-sounding programatic symphonic pieces that I always seem to confuse; at least now I know why I'm confusing those two.

I don't remember the Buffy episode, but then I watched all 7 seasons last year within the span of a couple months, so it's probably crammed into my brain somewhere.

Isn't it great how small animals don't seem at all daunted by trying to carry things many times their size? And how hamster and corgi butts look kind of similar?

anner

tears streaming down cheeks, shaking violently at desk, gasping for air.............

jenn
 |  Mar 08, 2007 at 09:04 AM

Did anyone besides me notice that little hammie made a beeline (kind of) straight to the LIQUOR cabinet?! I think this must be where he started from before he got the cookies!!

doodlebug

All of the music in "Carnival of the Animals" is snippets of longer pieces by different composers simply played at a different tempo. CotA is a wonderful introduction to the orchestra piece, and the best version has Hugh Downs doing the narration. Because there's nothing like Hugh Downs saying "a tasty kangaroo merangue".

(Not to mention the cover art is absolutely wonderful. I made my mother save the cardboard album cover long after the record had given all it could.)

I thought he was a wind up toy at first.Talk about determined, give the poor little bugger a cookie
