Hi! I'm new
Chatterbox: Down to Earth
Hi! I'm new
Hi! I'm new to CB, and I'm not totally sure what goes in the "Down to earth" section, but I've read some things and it looks like there's a lot of animal lovers!
So... let's talk about animals! What pets does everybuggy have? What's your favorite animal? Do you have any stories about your pets or anmals you've seen?
I have a scruffy dog named Waffles, and an *adorable* hamster named Bunnie. I also have lots of fish.
A story about my hamster:
One morning, I woke up to go say hi to my hamster, when I saw a hole chewed through the roof of her cage! AAAHH! I was so scared! Where could she be? Did my dog eat her? Was she okay? I was soooo scared, because I'd never lost a hamster before! I searched up ways to find lost hamsters, and looked all over for her, but she was nowhere to be seen. Then, when I had basically lost hope, I heard a little sound. It was a teeny pitter patter. I looked closely, and saw that she was walking on a cymbal from a drumset (my dad has a drumset). I guess she wants to be a drummer! *laughs when I think of a hamster playing drums* I was extremely relieved to find her, but now there was another problem. Where do we put her? Her previous cage obviously wasn't safe!! Thankfully, we bought her a new home and she is now safe and happy :)
Does anyone else have pet stories? Or animal stories!
Thanks! And sorry if I'm doing the whole CB thing wrong, I'm not really sure how to do it quite yet, but I'm learning!

Welcome, Rainbow. Down to Earth is the place to talk about anything in the world around you, so you did just right! I enjoyed your hamster story. Pets can be lots of fun. We might have another person with Rainbow in her/his name, but I think it's a two-part name. Experienced Chatterboxers, please let us know if we have another plain Rainbow. If so, then we'd ask this one to amend Rainbow, so we don't have two people with the exact same name. That can be very confusing.

Hey Rainbow, welcome!!! I'm getting a cute little doggy on Jan 9, I can't wait!!! Fun Fact: A long time ago my sister and I got a huge fish tank, but we never got the fish. It just sat in our room for five years. We never got the fish, we kinda just got rid of the tank recently XD
PS Being the oldest of five must be veryyy stressful. I'm the oldest of two and I still can't deal with my little sister lol.

Wow! Jan 9, that's so soon! And that's a funny story with the fishtank, that's actually happened to me before. We got a fishtank for my 11th birthday, and we never ended up putting fish in it :)

hey, what's up RAINBOW? i'M Jubilee, and I use they/them pronouns :) @Admin, there is another CBer named Rainbow Riot, I'm pretty sure we use the nickname RR for her.
Anyways, you are so lucky! I have a leopard gecko, but he isn't very fun. I don't hold him much anymore because a couple of years ago he BIT ME and I've been tramuatized ever since. My family owns an adorable cat, but my sisters chase her around, so she's very tired all the time. XD
Anyway, yeah that's about it. You're doing really well so far! idk why i said that XD
And if you'd like to join our Nanowrimo classrooms, here are the codes that I know:

Leopard geckos are cool! Hehe, yeah, I once had a previous hamster who bit me, and I was scared to hold her ever again. LOL :P
Nice to meet you, Jubilee!

Hi, RAINBOW! I'm Luminescence, but you can call me Lumi, because Luminescence is ridiculously hard to spell AND crazy long. I'm 12 years old, and my pronouns are she/her! I love the color blue, and... *doesn't know what else to say* XD
About your hamster, oh my goodness! I'm so glad she's okay!
I have a friend who has a hamster, and something similar happened to her- the hamster escaped and was missing for a whole night, but finally in the morning her dad found it in the bathroom. Which was downstairs, and her home was upstairs in my friend's room.
(this proceeded to terrify my friend's mom, who then decided the house needed a deep clean so the hamster couldn't hide from them again XD)
My favorite animal is a horse, although I also adore birds. I don't have any funny pet stories right now, but if I remember one I'll definitely post it :)
Read you 'round!
