The real problem is finding those tiny little shot glasses.

I really wish I could have heard the conversation between Gwen and her vocational counselor.

Sounds like the basis for Hamster Huey and the Gooey Kablooie.

After a rough day on the hamster treadmill, who can blame them for wanting to kick back a few?

The hamsters are tired of being used as guinea pigs in these ridiculous studies.

It's driving them to drinking.

This study explains signs posted in Old West saloons and, I am told, still posted in Texas roadhouses:
"We don't serve hamsters."

[Laddies Knight]

It's not hard at all, when someone else is buying.

[ripleysparrow]

I'm guessing these are Russian hamsters.

A tourist visiting Flathead County once got pretty upset with the local law. It seems the man and his hamster friend got drunk as a pair of waltzing pissants in a local tavern and started raising such a ruckus they were both thrown in jail for the night. What galled the tourist was that he had to pay a fine while the hamster got off free. The little rat was still sleeping it off in his pocket.

Here in Geezer Acres it's always a problem when our lead hamster gets drunk and falls off the treadmill. We don't have any electric until he sobers up and goes back to work.
