Caltoy UJ Hamster Plush

Approximately a decade ago, NCSX kept a fancy hamster habitat on the premises. The rodents were purchased from a local pet shop along with bags of litter, food, and treats. We started with two hamsters. Within 1 month, the female gave birth and we suddenly had eight of them. With ample supplies of food and water at their disposal, the rodents would eventually grow into a pack of 67. Ravenous, furry, and unrelentingly fertile, the hamsters were on a meteoric population explosion that would soon eat the NCS corporation out of warehouse and office.
Something had to be done.
After rubbishing the "hamster space voyage" idea where we would launch them to the moon on a colonization mission, NCS settled on a more mundane solution. We marched down to the pet shop and donated them back to the store. They agreed but we had to give them back in increments as they gradually sold off our "inventory." Sega's Caltoy plush hamsters are unique. They won't breed and they don't eat. Perfect for us and any other friends of hamsters who can't keep up with the upkeep. Each Caltoy UJ Hamster plush measures 40cm tall by 26cm in depth and its profile is reminiscent of Totoro. Preorders are welcome to ship in January 2008.
