Pet-Powered Paper Shredder
Is your pet hamster just sitting around taking up space? Make the little rodent earn his keep! Using an ingenious implementation of Flintstones technology, the Hamster Shredder uses your little guy's exercise wheel to shred your most confidential documents (plans for world domination, etc.).Why buy bedding for the furball when he can make his own from your credit card statements? Why scream at a machine when you can blame a living creature for paper jams? Because, sadly, the Hamster Shredder is only a prototype at this time, and not for sale.

This is great advice! The last line really hits home. I try to clean my computer desk with my computer on. A new email comes in and…there goes my attention!
BenApr 12th 2007 9:48AM
Nice now if I can only get one for my cat :)
BenApr 12th 2007 9:45AM
Nice, now if they'll only make one for my cat.
MarvinApr 12th 2007 3:38PM
a geuni pig would have more power so it could sred more papers at the same time :)
MarvinApr 12th 2007 3:41PM
now a cat..........
that's a diffrent story
they'd ust lay there
cats are cute but lazy

Why not a dog? I think its a good idea. My dog needs exercise, but the last time we walked him, he almost pulled out of his collar and under a truck!! This would be perfect for him! Well, the hamster wheel part, anyway. lol!

I think we should look at the bigger picture. Hamsters and cats working together at makeing a fuel-less power source. No more cat shelters full of cats nobody want. Just send them to the power plant, and have them chase a lazer pointer for a few hours.
LoriApr 14th 2007 7:43AM
EXCELLENT IDEA! I've never wanted pets, but I have a large stack of papers that need shredding so what a great excuse to get one. I hope this neat gadget gets patented!
jimApr 14th 2007 9:35AM
Is he looking for a wheel big enough for his cat or a hamster big enough for his cat?
spiceApr 14th 2007 9:57AM
I don't know If it's correct to say that you want a certain pet for the sole purpose of working for our benefit.
daveApr 14th 2007 3:54PM
sweet can I get one to put my brothers in
sheriApr 14th 2007 10:19AM
Sipce Girl there must be a card toting PETA member, huh?
NancyApr 14th 2007 10:53AM
And for a super powered shredder, you could have a cat chasing a hamster in the wheel.
NicoleApr 14th 2007 10:59AM
I think it's quite nifty. It benefits us AND the hamster considering the little furball gets to make his own carpet. Maybe he feels good about doing something for himself and making something, you know, a sense of accomplishment?
anneypanneyApr 14th 2007 12:08PM
Sounds fine until the hamster gets caught in the shredder.
AndyApr 14th 2007 12:19PM
GREAT idea! Hope it works out and gets its patent. I just wished I could come up with a great little idea like that.
BillybobApr 14th 2007 12:16PM
what the hell r yall talkin about its for a damn hampster! stop talkin about fuckin cats hell i've never heard so much bullshit in my life. and another thing what makes u think the damn hampster is gonnna run. its the single most retarded idea ever. people should think of ways to cure cancer not some god damn hampster powered paper shredder
AndyApr 14th 2007 12:32PM
Now all you have to do, is teach your dog to feed thepaper into shredder. Then you don't have to get off you lazy butt and you can watch all your soap operas. LOL
DougVA2811Apr 14th 2007 12:37PM
I wish folks like Billybob would crawl back under whatever rock they came from. We're talking hamsters and cats. We don't need that kind of language. Sheesh! Lack of real language skills I guess.
