They put a hamster named Hammond in Overwatch.

I used to have a hamster when I was a kid. His name was Barney. He didn't have a death ball with guns on it like Hammond, he just had a normal ball. He was a good hamster. He never bit. Some of them do. Hamsters can be assholes.

Sometimes he'd escape his cage. He'd climb the side and then monkey bar across to the hatch and if I hadn't secured it properly he'd push his way out for a taste of freedom. He could also squeeze under the crack of the door. Hamsters can squish themselves down flatter than you'd think.

One time my dog ate him. I'm not bein funny, this actually happened. I turned my back for one second and my dog Cisco, a husky, grabbed him. Luckily for Barney dogs are dumb and don't chew their food they just swallow it. I barely had enough time to reach into Cisco's mouth and pull him out before he went down the hatch. He was shaking and covered in slobber but he was alive and lived for another few years.

I'm glad my dog didn't eat him. He was a good hamster.
