Two pet hamsters are living a life of luxury as they enjoy a diet of curry, pasta and cheesecake in the care of their doting owner.
Anton Allan, 22, from Paisley in Scotland, spoils rotten his two Syrian hamsters, Mr Marshmallow, two, and Mr Liquorice- who is a few months old.
The pampered pets eat a variety of meals from the 100 recipes Anton makes for them to ensure they have a varied diet.
When life all gets a little bit stressful, the critters also enjoy time out to relax in little scenarios Anton makes up for them.
The pet owner revealed how he began giving his hamsters a varied diet when he carried out ‘taste tests’ to understand what they liked.
‘The first thing Mr Marshmallow ever tried was some watermelon, and he loved it,’ Anton said.
‘At the start, I just tried him on some different fruits and veggies but then I decided I wanted to start making him some meals to try.’
Anton then endeavoured to find the perfect thing to fit their palates, starting out with looking on the internet for guidance.
‘I did a bunch of research and followed some recipes I found online,’ he revealed.
‘But then I decided I wanted to try and make my own things for him.’
Next followed an array of various dishes, featuring both a main as well as tasty desserts.
‘I made him spaghetti with a sauce, a hamster-friendly cheesecake, and apple pie,’ Anton said.
‘Since then I have made a bunch of new things for him to try like, a curry, marshmallows, pumpkin pie and many more.
‘I have so much fun thinking of new things for him to try because he absolutely loves his food.’
Anton said that it’s ‘very rare’ he cooks something for Mr Marshmallow that the more mature hamster did not like.
He added: ‘Mr Liquorice is still new so he hasn’t tried too many things yet, but he did try some pancakes for pancake day and he really enjoyed them.’
The devoted pet owner shares his culinary creations on social media.
He boasts more than 599,200 followers on TikTok, where his videos have racked up some 21.9 million likes.
One of the latest clips features one of his fluffy pals enjoying a plate of spaghetti and ‘hamster-safe’ meatballs.
In another, Mr Marshmallow can be seen tucking into a cherry pie.
Followers appear equal parts overjoyed and confused by the hamsters’ eating habits.
In one post, a fellow rodent owner exclaimed: ‘THEY CAN EAT NOODLES? HOW COULD NO ONE TELL ME THIS? MY HAMSTER HAS MISSED OUT ON SO MANY NOODLES??’
‘How would I make this and could a Syrian hamster eat it,’ a second questioned.
A third quipped: ‘Better table manners than people I’ve worked with.’
Other users also begged for a recipe or tutorial, so they could recreate the tasty meal for their own pets whilst most gushed at their ‘adorable’ habits.
When they’re not busy filming, it appears Anton has a unicorn shaped enclosure for Mr Marshmallow to lounge in – as well as other beds – and even a little picnic table set for him to enjoy his meals on.
