Its cute, its fluffy, there's a hamster. The characters are well developed and there is actually a plot rather than just fluff all the time. Even with the fluff, the story flows and everything makes sense. What I do hate is how forgiving and naive the MC is and also how easily the ML manages to get him to forgive him.

... more>>
Spoiler

Argh! S*upid ML manipulated our poor MC and hid all the terrible things he did to him when he didn't know he was the MC. The MC believed him way too easily and just let him get his way. I do admit it falls in line with ML's personality to want to hide his flaws, but to emotionally hurt our already hurt MC and just straight up blame someone else for it is just too much! He doesn't own up to his faults and MC just believes and does everything he says!!! Rant over.

[collapse]

Anyways, aside from my personal issue with the ML, the story is well fleshed out and if you like cute and fluffy stories with the occasional spice of reality, this is a story for you. <<less

I love the fluffyness.

Being a hamster (MC) is so funny here because he's being treated a lot like a human that can do whatever he wants. The interactions between the hamster and owner (ML) are some of the funniest and most adorable things.

... more>>
Spoiler

There is a chapter in where the MC (hamster) is given a small tiny city as a "cage" to play in. The MC is so happy with it and tryied to repay the ML by helping his company by having the designs he made given to the ml. The ML really treats the MC so well that they say that he's one of those owners that treats his pet like his ancestor.

The story is very purposeful and has clear goal in mind as MC mentioned that he will have a limited lifespan while an accident that causes all this will happen in 8 months time. The pace of the story has no rush and pan out evenly, as days pass by peacefully as our little hamster play his iPad and our ML, Mr. Yan, go to work. Every MC action has a logical reason behind when he have to figure it out the mysteries of how he was transported back in... more>> time and who was it that ruined his career. While he may be a bit dense, a dense cute little hamster. All side character has a personality of their own and easy to remember, other than that, unrelated characters don't even have their name mentioned. I hope it won't go yaoi route in the near future when our little hamster fiercely protects Mr. Yan v**ginity like this.

If you have ever kept a hamster or are an authentic pet s*ave then you will totally like this one. <<less

Unfortunately, the reviews were pretty spot on.

Feel free to read this if you also had tons of questions/issues after finishing the whole novel. I'm mostly just complaining, to be honest LOL. The first half of the book was fun so this is mostly about the second half!

I had so many grievances with this novel. As much as I wanted to like Yan Jin and tried to make excuses for him in my head, it's undeniable that he wasn't a super good boyfriend (or pet owner cough cough)

Spoiler

I also wasn't a huge fan of how he took advantage of XY and constantly did questionable stuff like tracking him, installing something on his phone to eavesdrop, keeping important news from him that he thought XY couldn't handle, and basically outing him with that one kissing photo that was released to the media/announcing it at the press conference with no prior discussion!?!?!?

After YJ and XY were reunited in his human form, it was mostly about the drama with YL and SI and it was soooo slow that I almost dropped it. I really didn't care about what happened within their company.

Also, the little amount of information we get about the HAMSTER CLAN and the CAT CLAN is bonkers to me. Can we elaborate more on that instead of the company's internal affairs please LOL

I was hoping the news of the Gene Project would bring along more interesting things too. I thought maybe it would somehow connect to the hamster thing. For all the times it was brought up, the explanation was surprisingly lackluster.

It was initially made to seem like some big horrifying human experimentation but the actual explanation made it sound not that awful? Like, didn't they say XY's step-mother killed people during it earlier in the novel? That she saved YJ by switching out what they were giving him? Where did all of that go?

When it came time for explanation/discoveries on both YJ and Chu Ge's end, none of that awfulness was even mentioned. I felt like it almost wasn't necessary to even include it in the story.

I don't know, man. Maybe after the shock of finding out XY's hamster heritage, I was expecting something a little more dramatic and wild on YJ's end too.

I'm not sure why they used YJ's mother situation to explain why YJ's pets always die or run away after a month. Like, we can all agree after reading this book that YJ simply wasn't a good pet owner, right? Why did the author call it a curse from his mother killing the bird that one time? This man did so many things that could kill a hamster. I can't even imagine how he treated his other pets in the past!

Sure, the thing that happened with his mom was traumatic and horrifying but we're talking about a man who was told by a vet "hey, maybe don't give your hamster water baths" and did it anyway because he wanted to. Maybe don't blame his mom!? Maybe... get any and all small animals away from him?!

The ending itself was unsatisfying. Like, yeah, everyone lives happily ever after. But are we really going to skim over the fact that there's a hamster clan and a cat clan? How many animal clans are there in China, author!?

Also, what's up with the Gabriel family?! Mentioned once or twice then tossed aside.

[collapse]

Aside from spoilers, the way the novel was written was sometimes confusing. Like, the writer would try to imply or foreshadow something but I found myself being unable to follow what they were trying to say half the time. The translation itself was good so I don't blame them, I just felt like I couldn't follow the author's mind sometimes.

Like I said earlier, the first half of the novel was pretty fun. It was funny reading about all of the expensive things Yan Jin would buy for his little hamster and how much he'd spoil him. Giving it a few stars just for the first half. By the end, it felt like the author just wanted to finish the novel and move on. <<less

if you like fluffy and cute human x animal story you can read this novel

and like other fluffy novel it hasnt a strong or good story line

just something cute that you can read when you dont have anything to do or want something for your sad moment to be happy

... more>> MC and ML both are cute and mature so you dont have to bother from their silly task or bahavior

Although author added many part of the story without good or logical reason and its kinda borind. Like gabriel family. Its just added to increase the amount of ML Op. Or gene experiment. But at all its a good read and you wont regret it
Spoiler

i also wanted mpreg too but you cant have anything you want :"

Although this kind of story doesnt have anything but cuteness but But I'm still addicted to them :) what about you?

MC did nothing to Lin Zhao, who attempted to kill him with the car crash, the backstab, the drugging and the plagiarizing. MC ALSO did nothing to make ML feel bad when ML was retaliating against him (30M "debt", cyberbullying and gettig him fired) prior to finding out he was the hamster.................... ML didnt even say sorry and the whole thing was just forgotten in one chapter

After reading "A Guide to Raising Your Natural Enemy", I was looking for another book with a hamster protagonist to satisfy my hamster fixation. Indeed, the cuteness overload from hamster Fishy did not disappoint but I did not like the author's writing style.
The author had a roundabout and exaggerated way if narrating, taking long-winding roads, dragging on and on about the same things or events and also a tendency towards overdramatizing. I kept skipping over many repetitive and irrelevant paragraphs. Also, the characters were often strange or incoherent. For... more>> e.g. I don't get the relationship between Xiao Yu and his stepmother. The genome research project just jumped out of nowhere. Who the heck are the Gabriel family? I also don't understand the side characters' relationships (Chu Ge and his cat lady, Nan Wei and his childhood sweetheart). Both these side couples did not get enough screen time.
My favourite thing in this novel is the hamster&YanJin interactions... their dialogues and relationship were so cute and adorable. I liked hamster Fishy better than human Fishy. As a hamster, he was more upfront and straightforward; he probably felt more at ease acting selfish and spoiled. And as a game addict myself, I totally loved the idea of hamster Fishy being a god at gaming lol...
Spoiler

little Fishy being caught red-handed playing games is one of the best moments of the story.

I really like this novel. I actually read every translated chapters (as of now) before I write this review.

The MC is very cute and naive. He is also quiet introverted in my opinion, he totally lack interpersonal skills but he is one heck of a designer, that's for sure. The ML is your typical overprotective, possessive, black bellied gong. He really go through so much to protect the MC and his 'innocence'. The style of writing is also very entertaining, its cute with the right amount of humor and drama.... more>> Its also very interesting to know about the background stories of other characters.

Now, I can understand that this story may not be liked by all. Honestly, the MC can be very passive eventhough the ML hide many thing from him. This, however, is very easy to understand if you really think about it.

[The MC, eventhough he could be consider a genius, is a very simple person. He also have a very weak personality, which would be more noticeable in the latter half of the story, and tend to be very passive. However, this could be simply explained by the way he is raised and the environment he work in. He is repeatedly surpress and betrayed by people he considered a friend. The MC also like to lead a simple normal life and tend to stay away from trouble, which lead me to my second opinion. ] [The ML do keep secrets from the MC. And yes, I definetly do not agree to some of his choices. However, the ML only did keep secrets from the MC because he want to protect the MC. Its not because he treats him like an idiot, although he do agree that the MC can be very s*upid, its because he dont want to cause the MC to worry about an issue that the MC cant do nothing about. Besides, the MC did say that knowing only cause trouble so he rather not know anything. So if you like a faceslapping novel with a vengeful and troublemaker of a protagonist then you are reading the wrong novel. This only have a cute MC and a blackbellied ML who do the faceslapping for the MC ]

    1. And lastly, I would like to adress something. What the effin hell is this stuff all about the mc's intelligence from 100 to 0? Have you really read the novel. Cause, dude, the MC is s*upid from the beginning. He might appear like hes all intelligent because hes a human turned into a hamster but he is still very s*upid. He did not even suspect anything wrong with his former company. Sure he found out that he's been betrayed but he is so oblivious to his surrounding. He has a very low IQ and EQ especially when it comes to human interaction.
    1. There are also some who keep on saying that the whole character development is wasted when the MC return to his human body. Dude, the major development starts from that point. If you all stop reading after reading that part then you really missed out the part where the MC finally become comfortable with his surrounding and expressing his thoughts and such.
I really like this novel and I am seriously recommending it. I understand of you do not like this type of novels but please dont be dissuade from reading this base from those two reasons above. This is another good read and I am patiently waiting for the translator to update more chapter. <<less

I was one of the few people that did NOT enjoy this.

Tried reading it on two separate occasions, dropped it around same arc both times.

For me it was plain boring and a challenge to keep trying reading.

I do not remember enough from it to give it a fair rating and a detailed review, I just came here to say this story might not be everyone.

If you found it super tedious to read, you are not alone.

The tag doesn't lie. There's so much Secrets! The tag about Secret wasn't just for One or Two things, but the very Deep Heavy Plot inside!!!

If you think this story just about Hamster and Designer, you are so Wrong!!!

But if you also end up thinking that ML's mystery past also come out Out of Nowhere, then you also Wrong! It was like a Blink and you Missed it kind of hints. But the hints were all there!

It also not just a simple story of Counterattack thing, it was more than... more>> that! Deeper and somewhat Heavy! But that's what make it unique compared to other novels!

ML is Super Black Belly but also Super Loving and a Hen pecked Husband. He will lie to make MC happy. Though all important secrets would be revealed and MC also very understanding.

ML also has many Loyal Subordinates and few Close Friends. ML in a away different from other Overbearing CEO character because he does has people who cares and loyal to him, and he himself was rather Good boss. He believe in Democracy!

MC also lovable. He's no Pushover, and even when he was disappointed with lots of people, he don't do Vengeance. He remember when people were good. But he also wasn't saint. He's more Confident now because having Good Life is a Better Revenge rather than doing any Heartless thing. The point is, I LOVE how the MC is written! The author wrote how character doesn't just simply do Black or White or just Grey. Character like MC is a Colorful and I Love that!

I also adore the all the Supporting Characters! And their problem also all revealed and somewhat solved.

It's may not be a Perfect Novel, but it was Almost Perfect and I'm TRULY FULLY ABSOLUTELY LOVING IT FOR THE ETERNITY AND BEYOND!!! <<less

  1. A very fluffy novel. I really enjoyed Yan Jin and Xiao Yu's interaction as a hamster. I just don't like it when Yan Jin don't tell Xiao Yu about some problems. Then here's Chu Ge and his GF's complicated thing.
    Spoiler

    I don't really understand what Yan Jin did to Chu Ge's gf but I think it's Yan Jin's fault about her accident 10 years ago? The author didn't really elaborate it. Also the action in the story isn't detailed too. They just said war here and there, then its over.

    [collapse]

    But all in all, I really love the story. Even if there's some flaw on the story, I'll still give it a solid 5 star because the fluffyness overpowered the flaws.

This was so fluffy and cute. I loved it so much. The only part I didn't really like was the MLs brainhole when it came to the MC. The ML is supposed to be really smart and I understand that the idea of your hamster being a transformed human wouldn't be the first thing to come to mind but the MC really didn't act like a normal hamster at times. It was explained later that he had interacted much with pets but I still feel like he should have figured... more>> out that something was wrong with it a bit faster. Besides that though it was a really good novel! <<less

I dropped this chapter after reading chapter 160 but my general impression is this: It was much more interesting when the protagonist was a hamster than when he was a human! Especially in the beginning, I really liked the daily antics lifestyle that the main character had, as well as the cute hamster and owner scenes. Very cutesy story with a tsundere type MC.

It’s an interesting take on the “turn into a hamster theme” because the setting is in a pretty normal modern setting (not apocalypse nor interstellar) where we can relate more to what’s going on, like MOBA games and QQ.

You’d think that the overbearing CEO pampering his pet would be boring without all those heavy fantasy/sci-fi elements but this story is actually quite entertaining, from the MC living a multi-identity internet life (which is also relatable) to the drama from betrayals and family secrets.

It’s a read I would recommend, and this... more>> is from someone who normally finds this kind of setting boring and often stopped reading somewhere in the middle. <<less

I'll give it around a 3, 9/5

Tbh the story was quite interesting at the beginning but then like after they fell in love and all that jazz it kinda get slightly boring

Its a good story if you want an ML pampering MC with some animal fluff a good enjoyable one but would I re read it? Probably not, some parts even felt particularly rushed and also some parts felt like "it's over just like that???"

Either I didn't read it correctly but whatever did happened to Li something tho? Man attempted... more>> mu*der due to envy and MC was almost thrown into a super bad vibe situation and all he said when he met li something was in along the lines of never meeting u again like what???

Overall my brain can't fully comprehend it but if you want a quick fluff I recommend u read it till they made up cause the rest of the stuff is pre boring personally, and the only exciting stuff I found near the end was about faye <<less
