Hamster Retires From Tailor Business
It’s been 10 fruitful years of hemming pants and darning socks, but a hamster tailor named Velvet has finally hung up his needles.
“He’s earned his retirement,” says fellow business owner Sal Greenblatt, who runs a dry cleaner adjacent to Velvet’s shop. “And the business is in good hands with his son taking over. It’ll be around for 10 more years, at least.”

Hamster Dominates Speed Eating Contest
A white hamster by the name of JoJo has been awarded first place in a North Carolina Speed Eating contest after downing more than 120 peanuts in less than 15 minutes.
“JoJo just powered through those suckers,” said one excited spectator. “He’s got big cheeks, so I think he just shoves them in there to make room for the next one.”
The hamster received a cash prize of $1,500 and free lunches at Mickey’s Diner, a local eatery, for life.

Guinea Pig Closes In on ‘Theory of Everything’
Researcher and guinea pig, Dr. Hopwell Fuzzykins, at the University of California at Irvine, is closing in on a new theory that his colleagues think has a good chance to finally unify the four fundamental interactions of nature: gravity, the strong force, the weak force, and electromagnetism. The elusive “theory of everything” has stumped physicists for decades.
“It has something to do with loop quantum gravity… or maybe M-theory… I’m not actually sure,” explained Martin Winchecker, associate dean of UC Irvine’s school of theoretical physics. "I really don’t understand this stuff. I’m more of a figure head. I just know Dr. Fluffykins is really smart and he gets oodles of grant money.“
