Householder later charged with animal cruelty.

I'm really sorry for the late hamster (and the distressed bird, of course), but this news is hilarious.

Hamsters are a prey animal, they get eaten, it is how it goes, they are solely in captivity to teach kids about mortality, the smell of **** and getting bitten.

This news has gone wildfire among my kid's peers since I texted it to her after seeing it here. Criminology students are coming up with varied conspiracy theories e.g. police got him done because they didn't want their cruel, hamster gobbler dog to be prosecuted or shot; police saw their @rse for finding sod all so they framed the poor man; it was a policeman who ate the hamster not the dog and the talking parakeet tweeted to the policeman "**** off", so they took it away and got its owner done.

Was this at jimmyinrugbys house? I heard they were living together.

I originally did find the situation funny and kind of ironic.

But another article reporting the story has a picture of the parakeet, and tbh the bloke got off lightly.

Would of been better if the police dog had bitten him.

He should have been given a job to clean animal **** at some animal rescue place for 2 years on daily basis. Actually, some zoo would be better where he would've had to clean a lion's cage with the lion inside it.

I bet lions and tigers feel like that about humans if they get the chance!
