While Cyndi was out running errands, I helped Arianna clean out Fluffy’s cage. When she cleans his cage, she has to put him somewhere else. Usually, she puts him in the hamster ball, and he rolls around kitchen for a while. But today, he didn’t want to go into the ball, so we put him in his castle. This was a gift from Tricia, which came with lots of residents(king, queen, common folk, horseys, etc). But right when Arianna decided she was done playing with the castle, she got the hamster, and this is what we used before we got the hamster ball. How many hamsters do you know who have a vacation castle in the suburbs?

Anyhow, even the vacation house needs to be be cleaned. You can imagine not only all of the bits of food, sunflower seed carcasses, and miniature hamster scale dust bunnies laying around, but also hamster droppings. She was going to use this little miniature broom and dustpan I have, when I got the brilliant idea to fire up my air compressor. Hey, it’s summer outside. Well, after we got the protective goggles on, she literally had a blast. She got stuff out of every single nook and cranny. Man, that castle has not been this clean since new! This is far easier and more effective than the little tiny broom. Chalk up another use for Craftsman power tools.
