I have a very cute hamster named Barter. Barter has a dark cream-colored body (米色的身体), and a short tail. He has four tiny feet with sharp claws (尖尖的指甲)and tiny long teeth. He also has a “pocket”on each side of his mouth, for storing food.
Barter loves food. His favorite is corn (玉米). If I give him a bowl of corn, he will eat every bit in a few hours.
Barter is quite lovely. He's just over six months old and loves to play. He plays in the hamster wheel every night. When he plays around, he runs here and there, his body looking like a ball of fur(绒毛)rolling about (滚动). He gets very upset if someone bothers (打搅)him.
I like my little pet Barter very much. He's brought me so many laughs and joys.
