A utterly adorable hamster everybody wants to cuddle with, to be more precise

Towards the end of last month, a Reddit user who goes by the name of “upparoom” shared the photo next to this article with the online community.

In just a few hours, the picture went viral.

For the time being, it's unclear where and how the Reddit user came across this muffin. What's as clear as day is that the treat looks just like a hamster.

“My muffin is a hamster, your argument is invalid,” reads the message accompanying this photo on the social networking and entertainment website.

A positively adorable hamster everybody on the Internet wants to take home and cuddle with day in, day out, to be more precise.

Needless to say, people who are trying to lose weight might want to refrain themselves from doing so.

It's still unclear whether the person who made the muffin used an actual rodent as their model. If you ask me, they probably did. Otherwise, there is no way to explain why the treat looks more like a pet than it does like food.

“I feel like it would just squeak and bleed if you tried eating it,” a user commented on this picture, as cited by LidTime. I don't know about you, but I for one feel the same.

Now bring out the knives and forks.
