    I have hamster that needs to he disciplined for a wrong doing.

    I do not want to harm it or do anything bad as it is usually well behaved.

    What is the best way to apply some discipline?

    Set the hounds on him.

    You can't discipline a hamster.

    Take away his little wheel, that'll learn him.

    What about every time it misbehaves I pick it up and give him a slight squeeze?

    Not hard as I do not want to hurt it. Would this work?

    This works. You'll need a buddy, and a handball alley though.

    Try tickling him until his cheeks go red.

    Hamsters deal in cold, hard logic. Debate the issue.

    Cut off its allowance

    Face cheeks, or....?

    You have to use Operant conditioning to teach animals stuff. It suppresses undesirable behaviour and reward desired behaviour.

    10 seconds in the microwave on a low heat.

    With a rabbit.

    The hamster is probably deliberating on how to discipline you. Smart bastards, hamsters are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,572 ✭✭✭✭brummytom


    Hamsters are vicious little cúnts. Have you got a cat? Or anything that would eat a rodent?

    Just kill the bastard. Feed him to a cow and video it. Post it in cool vids & pics & links.

    Kill him with a left footed slean.

    18 posts in and no one has suggested introducing the hamster to Freddy Starr.

    Unless you want to be covered in hamster excrement, whatever floats your boat.....

    Poor hamster is probably gay, and thought by being a nidgey hamster he would impress you....
    those relationships never last funk him up big shytle and do a frano on him... Eh with a tooth-pick, in ratio to his size and all that, be gentle..:eek:

    Wheel clamp works all the time.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 424 ✭✭Chunners


    Beat the living ****e out of yourself in front of him, studies show that hamsters running on their wheel really get the point when humans get self inflicted black eyes in front of them especially if the human in question deserves it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,625 ✭✭✭AngryHippie


    Blast the hamster with piss !

    (Surprised it wasn't mentioned earlier)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 424 ✭✭Chunners


    Show him who's boss from the start



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 279 ✭✭Angry_Mammarys


    Give the little sh!t a kick up the arse


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Make love to him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 203 ✭✭Uncle Ruckus


    Flick his nuts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,393 ✭✭✭Ed Winchester


    What was the wrong doing? Just so we know what kind of hamster this is.

    If you want to get bitten go ahead but I really hope you're joking.
