Lola's $15,000 gym, AKA new accommodations

Sorry guys, this is another post blowing you off, and not about anything art-related.

            Rather, it's about Emma's hamster Lola.




For Emma's birthday, our grandma decided to get Lola a Habitrail, because Emma wanted Lola to have a new exciting place to play.

But for some unknown reason, she got Lola a whole new cage, complete with a twisty slide thing that she can climb up, a u-shaped tube protruding from the side, and a little secret room at the top of the cage. And so this became Lola's $15,000 gym.


Although she's quite healthy, Ben is constantly getting on Lola's back about being fat. She's a plump little thing, but not overweight. But this teasing resulted in our game ' The Biggest Hamster' where, you guessed it, we take Lola, her wheel, and her other 'exercise equipment' ( ball, cardboard tube, etc.) and pretending alternately to be a) Bob, offering benign words of encouraging advice, or b) Jillian, screaming a living nightmare about ripping off her arm and beating her with it. So since this new cage looks so fancy and professional, it was dubbed her '$15,000 home gym'.                So here are the pictures.                     



Here's Lola, the Gray Menace ( A random nickname, as you may have guessed, that was invented by Ben)






Old  accommodations.

The little house where she sleeps! And I don't even know why this is particularly exciting!
