A woman who cut up and ate her pet hamster has been jailed for a year. Emma Parker, a 39-year-old drug addict, forced a large knife into a hamster ball containing the pet called "Mr Nibbles".
Footage posted online shows Parker, from Lincolnshire, cut him in half while he is still alive. She then ate both dissected halves of the hamster.
As reported by The Mirror, Gordon Holt, prosecuting at Lincoln Crown Court, said: “The two videos seen on social media showed the defendant with a hamster in a hamster ball. The defendant is holding the ball with a knife in the other hand.
