I am a pediatrician. An 8-year-old child and his mother attend an appointment. The patient reports weariness and a loss of appetite. The little child begged his mother to go, saying he is an adult and will speak with the doctor himself, and then suddenly pulled out a hamster from his pocket!
It turns out that the hamster hasn’t fed in three days since he has been living in a box under the boy’s bed. His friend gave him the pet. He didn’t inform his mother because having animals in the house was forbidden.

We talked to the mother. She agreed to keep the hamster and take it to the veterinarian. However, I assume he didn’t eat due to worry. Imagine sitting in a dark box for three days.
