> I had an awesome cat when I was younger. He was an outside cat and would catch all sorts of little rodents, birds, rabbits, chipmunks, etc. In the colder months he came inside and was a regular house cat. I also had a hamster that had a habit of getting out of the cage. One morning I came downstairs and the cat was in the corner of the bathroom acting funny and kept jumping towards the opposing wall… it turns out that he had caught the hamster in the corner and was not letting it go. Kind of guarding it until one of us would pick it up and put it away. I found him doing this on at least a dozen occasions before we got a new cage. Kind of weird considering if that hamster was outside it would of been without a head in about 2 seconds. The cat also caught mice and moles that had managed to come inside - but never hurt the hamster.

usually it wont hurt anything with its masters smell since you handle the hampster it smells like you so the cat knows not to hurt it… understand?.. sort of like my mom raises birds, the cats and dogs know not to hurt them because they have the human scent. where as the birds outside are completely wild and have no human scent… thats why your cat wouldnt hurt your hampster… animals are really smart
