Adorable Hamster Face-Plants Into Water Bowl

Storyful

A hamster attempting to jump into her owner’s hand ended up face-planting into her water bowl at her home in Lier, Norway.

Emely Kaasa was documenting the bonding process between herself and Alana the hamster for her TikTok account, when the small rodent accidentally walked off her open hand and fell into the bowl.

The hamster then reemerged, with the adorable video showing her drying her face with her paws.

Kaasa told Storyful that she often places her hand in the cage for Alana to jump in, but that, as she lifted her hand for a cuddle, the hamster continued walking.

“I would often place my hand in the cage so she WOULD climb on it,” she said.

She reassured followers on TikTok, saying, “Don’t worry, she’s ok!” Credit: Emely Kaasa via Storyful
