My name is April. I work part-time at the local pet store and have always loved being around animals. Growing up my family always had cats and dogs, but my husband and I are both allergic. I didn’t even know that dwarf hamsters existed until I started working at the pet store. I really fell in love with the little fluff balls and got my first hamster. Yes, a grown woman at the age of 33 getting her first hamster.

Now I have two little dwarf hamsters, named Porkchop and Dumptruck. They are sisters and live together happily. When I wanted to make a festive video with them my husband had the great idea of doing the 12 days of Christmas. I made Porkchop and Dumptruck a little Christmas tree with treats on it, my father helped to make a tiny sled and I made little Christmas hats for them. The girls did a wonderful job of looking cute for the camera.

The reason I make these videos because I have fun doing it and they seem to have fun too. I get to play with my hamsters and share their cuteness with the world. I love that other people enjoy the videos as much as I do. It makes me smile to read each comment people post on youtube, especially the ones where people write they were having a bad day until they watched the video.
