Hamster Plays Dead

It's been filmed in portrait FFS. That's just wrong....

How can something be tied around the hamster? It's against a wall. As for the 'divett' that's the extra skin all hamsters have. Now I don't know if the hamster was actually scared. People have to remember that it is possible to train animals, even hamsters. I would not consider this hamster abuse.

I'm super surprised you posted this. It's a pretty nasty video of a hamster bing abused.

The hamster has fishing line bound tightly around it. It is is being yanked back pretty hard when the guy pretends to shoot it.

YOu can also tell it's being yanked back, because there is no physical way the hamster would be able to launch it's self in the weird down and back angle its dragged in.

You can clearly see the divett in the poor animals skin and fir where the line is wrapped about its body. It's animal abuse.

This same video has been called out for before for the abuse of the hamster.

How do you know what is going on in the hamsters head? You don't. That aside, any loud sound coming from silence would scare anything, fearing for your life has nothing to do with it. My dog jumps at loud sounds all the time, do you believe him to be sentient like a human?

number1guy - Your friends, one would assume, are sentient beings. They are aware. They know that when you've scared them, it was you. They know they're not actually about to die. You can explain things to them.

Animal cruelty? So what's the name for scaring your friends on Halloween? Friend cruelty?

Please, people.

How do we know that the hamster was not really harmed. It looks pretty bad.

I would have to rate this is as "Not Neat".

Animal cruelty. Yuck. I'm not on Neatorama for this.

Scaring the crap out of a hamster for kicks... hysterical.

Not adorable. Why don't you check some of the comments on the other sites this video is posted and see how many people are calling it shameless animal abuse?
