Hamster eats magnet, gets stuck to cage

A hamster in Britain has been recovering after eating a magnet and getting stuck to the metal bars of its cage.
Smurf's owner Kate Meech returned to the family’s home in Bugbrooke, Northampton. with her four children to find the animal attached to the outside of its cage after swallowing the object, which is thought to have come from her 10-year-old son Thomas' Spider-Man figurine.
Kate explained: "When I saw the small circular shape from inside her cheek I realised she was attached by a magnet. It took a bit of a tug to pull her away from it and then we had to keep her in a plastic box, for obvious reasons.
"I’ve warned the children to keep their toys away from the cage from now on.”
