In the comic "Inhuman", there is indeed an interesting story about raising hamsters in September. Here's a breakdown of this storyline:
1. The origin of hamsters and the love of September
In September, as a nine-tailed fox, out of a girl's love for fluffy animals, she decided to get a pet. She chooses a small and cute hamster and buys it a glass house and various toys, showing September's deep love for this hamster.
September's love for hamsters is not only reflected in material inputs, but also in the care and companionship of her daily life. After work, September would go home as soon as possible, and before she even had time to say hello to her colleagues, she hurried back to accompany her hamster.
2. The "special" experience and feelings of hamsters
However, for hamsters, the "master" of September is no ordinary human girl. September's body is a nine-tailed fox, which is undoubtedly a natural suppression for small hamsters. Therefore, whenever September approaches, hamsters feel tremendous stress and are even afraid of being eaten by September.
This fear of hamsters is not unfounded. Some of September's daily behaviors, such as staring at the hamster, showing a mouth full of teeth, drooling, etc., made the hamster extremely uneasy. In the eyes of the hamster, every look and movement of September may mean that she is about to become her "mouthful food".
3. The hamster's "survival" and September's reaction
Under this constant pressure, hamsters began asking for help online and shared their experiences on a knowledge-sharing platform called Zhiye. It describes in detail how he lived in fear under the "rule" of September and how he looked for ways to cope with stress.
Interestingly, September came across this sharing by accident and took his phone to the hamster to "confront". Although September was not malicious, her appearance still scared the hamster.
This storyline not only shows September's love and care as a pet owner, but also reveals how hamsters really feel in this special environment. Through this plot, "Inhuman" succeeds in showing the subtle relationship between people and pets (or "demons" and pets) in a humorous and witty way.
In the real world, foxes have a relatively mixed diet, they can eat plant food, and they also prey on small animals, including rodents (such as mice, hamsters, etc.). However, this does not mean that foxes "like" hamsters, and the predatory relationship between them is more based on the need for survival and the natural laws of the food chain.
In their natural environment, foxes choose their prey based on the availability of food and their ability to hunt. Small mammals such as hamsters are likely to prey on foxes if they are abundant and easy to catch in their area of activity. But this predatory behavior does not mean that the fox has a special preference or preference for hamsters. In the setting of "Inhuman", September and their family are very fond of mice.
So while real-world foxes may prey on small mammals such as hamsters, this cannot simply be understood as a fox "liking" hamsters. Their predatory behaviour is more based on the instinct to survive and reproduce, and it's no wonder that baby hamsters are afraid of September.
In "Inhuman", in addition to having hamsters, September did have other pets. She once raised a mythical beast named "Xu Humm", the prototype of which was the strange beast "Tanuki Li" recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". This mythical beast was first discovered by Nezha and later adopted by September. Xu has many magical abilities, such as digging and building, and he even built a small castle for September. September loves Xu Huchiao very much, and Xu Hummhao is also very happy under September's care.
