I figured the parrots startled them.
The hamsters were all piled in the furthest corner of the cage, and when I raised Soot to see the other hamsters, they all squeaked loudly.
They're excited to see you, Soot, I said, pressing the ball against the cage.
After my father promised the man we were taking the hamster with us, the argument stopped.
the store owner came over and asked me which I would like.
I pointed at an all-white one and one that had brown and white colorings.
They hissed and nipped at the owner when he grabbed them, and he said that they were scared, but it was okay, they'll acclimate soon.
He gently placed them in a little cardboard box.
He kneeled down as my father put his finger in the squawking parrot cage, making pss pss noises.
He told me that the two in the box were run-of-the-mill hamsters, but soot was special.
He said he would live as long as me.
I just had to make sure he didn't get hurt too badly.
Then, with an intensity that made me uncomfortable, he told me to never let Soot die.
My father, nursing his now bleeding finger, noticed the strange interaction in front of him, shepherded me toward the counter, and paid for the two new hamsters.
The entire ride home, the two new hamsters squeaked, and I was hoping they wouldn't do it all night.
I released them all into the cage and the two took off.
I decided to name one Marshmallow and the other Toasty because of the pure white fur of one and the other looked like a toasted Marshmallow.
Toasty and Marshmallow darted into the tubes and Soot didn't follow.
Instead, he ran on his wheel.
I watched as the two explored every inch of the tubes but they didn't seem to want to go into the main part of the cage.
