We recently got an addition to the Stockdale family.  Please welcome Fudge the Hamster Stockdale.

Fudge the Hamster Stockdale was adopted from a neighbor girl who moved to Jakarta.  The little Stockdales had been demanding a pet since our arrival in Singapore.  We were advised to go for a guinea pig by a pet expert.  However, guinea pigs can live for 5-7 years, versus 2 years for Fudge the Hamster Stockdale.  And, Fudge the Hamster Stockdale was free.   Advantage, Fudge the Hamster Stockdale!

I’m sure he’ll have many exciting adventures and a long and fruitful life with the Stockdales.
