SHOPFRONT April
Detail:
Another strange request. A customer came in and asked to purchase a small furry toy mouse and three paper bags. Apparently I had sold this particular customer a furry mouse a few weeks ago and had put it in a paper bag. The cat played with the paper bag more than the furry mouse!
A customer asked us to re-home an unwanted hamster. (Maybe I should be a re-homing service and not a pet shop). The person freely admitted she had bought it from a local garden centre but could not be bothered to drive back to it. More like they told her to go away, I thought. Apparently this seven-week-old hamster had eaten its way out of its carrying box on the way home from the garden centre and bitten both children. It then ran around the inside of the car until it found mum who was driving the car at the time and promptly bit her leg. They diverted to the grandparents’ house to clean their wounds and put the charming hamster in a new box. The hamster promptly bit grandma and grandpa. Needless to say over the next few days the killer hamster took chunks out of anyone getting near it, to the extent that the children were terrified of it. And the name of this ferocious beast – NIBBLES!
