Firecrews Go Crazy Trying To Find Escaped Hamster In Scotland.
Please note that is a generic stock photo of a hamster with a kitty cat, not Fudgie. I figured my blog could use a bit of “awwww” today.
From BBC:
Two crews used a chocolate-covered camera and a vacuum cleaner to try and locate missing Fudgie at six-year-old Zoe Appleby’s home in Dunbar.
Fire crews spent five hours trying to recover the pet after it scuttled down a hole in the kitchen floor.
But, the hamster, who was being looked after for a friend during the holidays, is still refusing to come out.
Apparently, what had happened was Mrs. Appleby made the mistake of telling her manger’s fiancee, who is in the fire brigade that they had a hamster missing in their walls and he decided to call round his buddies and break out their toys and start tearing apart the gas pipes and smearing cameras with chocolates. Because you know, it’s not about the hamster – it’s never about the hamster – it’s about having a mission and going balls out to complete that mission..well, until you have to give up and called the SSPCA. But they gave it a good go, eh wot?

A rat in a fuzzy overcoat is still a rat.
Two crews?! No, that’s not a waste of resources at all.
I think they would have had more success had they had Steve Martin’s character from Roxanne on the crew.
