Hamtaro: Little Hamster, Big Adventures Is An English-Language Adaptation Of The 2000 Series Tottoko Hamtaro (Hamtaro The Hamster). With His Outsized Round Head, Huge Eyes, Big Ears, And Tiny Limbs, Hamtaro Is Another Aggressively Cute Little Character In The Tradition Of Hello Kitty And Pikachu. In "Hamtaro, Please Come Home," His Owner Laura And Her Parents Move Into A New House In The Suburbs. While They'Re Unpacking, Hamtaro Sneaks Out To Explore And Starts Making Friends With Other Hamsters: Nervous Oxnard, Pushy Boss, And Pretty Bijou.
