My sister managed to keep two cats and a hamster. It used to escape, only to be chased by one of the cats. The hamster developed a stange ability to jump about a foot (30cm) so as to escape from the jaws of death.

ah, okay. i understand better. it seems to me that cats and a hamster make a very dangerous combination. i wouldn't want to have both...

I'm beginning to think that a hamster (or three) would be a good idea. they are largely nocturnal and spend hours going round a little treadmill. Perhaps they could power my computer when I'm working late.

heh. that sounds like a good idea to me.

you try it out and let me know if it works. i might be able to think of something for my cats. although they are lazy buggers, i don't know whether i could get them to run on a treadmill, they'd probably just want to go to sleep...
