Fat Hamster in Printer Sparks Rescue

BERLIN (Reuters) - A hamster called "Teddy" sparked a police rescue mission after he climbed inside a computer printer and got stuck because he was too fat to get out again, authorities said Wednesday.

I remember when I worked for Banfield that we could not close the printer for some reason. Turns out there was a mouse stuck in the back of it and the receptionists kinda squashed it trying to close the drawer.

I've also washed a mouse at the same hospital. Apparently he was in the wash load and when I got the laundry out of the washer, there he was, stuck to the side of the washer. Poor mouse.

This is what happens when the animal hospital resides in a pet store.

A family of squirrels and a bunch of field mice made their home in my car once, when I was pretty sick and not using it. It was parked right next to a birdfeeder, so it was like getting room service.

When I finally drove it and used the defroster I got bombarded with old sunflower seed shells. It took days for the service station to clean it all out!
