Name: Crash Smith II

Nickname: Crash

Owner: Colby Smith

Home: A Critter Trail cage with all the amenities in Catonsville

How they met: Crash II was selected from Petsmart after we had to bury Crash I. Colby selected him out of a choice of about five hamsters.

Age: not exactly known but estimated at about 11 months

Breed: Long-haired Syrian (aka Teddy Bear hamster)

Favorite food: broccoli and seeds and nuts

Best trick: Crash moves his bedding all around his home. He puts it in his cheeks and travels to a new spot and rebuilds a nest.

Favorite activity: Running in his wheel and in his portable rolling ball

Gentle is his middle name: Crash has never once bitten or even tried to bite anyone. He is the most gentle hamster we have owned

If Crash had a motto for life, it would be: You get more broccoli when you're gentle and cute.
