My mom ses i can't have a hamster because they're "Rodents".
My friend was moving and he sed i could take his hamster and all its food and its cage and stuff. My mom sed no and i sed look at him and hold him. she did and she wanted him and she still sed no. (?)
You could buy a new one, but if you still miss your old one, wait a month or two. that way it won't feel like you're replacing him.
My cat just died recently, and we still havent gotten a new one. we still have one cat and two dogs tho.
