That title must have you wondering, right?
I find myself at home on a Thursday evening, doing laundry and packing for my trip to Trinumeral Music & Arts Festival I’m leaving to attend tomorrow. Ho hum. Let’s log on to Facebook and take a break from the festival prepping. And what do I see when I log in?
My friend Stan has found a hamster, how funny! So I comment:
What a coincidence, this hamster Stan found looks just like Brandi’s! I know her hamster gets out often, wouldn’t that be funny if it were hers?
What do you know…it turns out it is hers! I am absolutely cracking up at this point. I just logged on to Facebook and found my friend’s hamster. What are the odds? Brandi, however, is already at Trinumeral. So I messaged Stan my number and told him to call me so I could come save her! He calls, and I get over to their house in about 15 minute’s time, still giggling about the situation. I get to the apartment, and there’s Lizzy!
How exactly Lizzy got from Brandi’s apartment on the second floor, into the one essentially two flights down in the basement around the back of the house is a mystery. But thank goodness she’s safe!
Next problem: Brandi’s at Trinumeral, how do I get Lizzy back into the apartment? I put Lizzy in my car; trying to climb on a roof with a hamster in my hand was not a good option! Luckly for me, Brandi had left a window open. So a crawled in the apartment through the window (thank goodness no cops drove by!), walked back downstairs to get Lizzy from my car and placed her back in her cage. She’s back home, all safe and sound!
I secured the door of her cage with some twisted paperclips, I couldn’t find any duct tape. Hopefully that will suffice! However, she’s quite the little Houdini. So I check all other openings of her cage, just to be safe! Locked Brandi’s door back and climbed back out her window. I scraped my knee on the roof climbing down, but nothing major – at least Lizzy was found, safe and sound, and back in her home!
