A take on the popular [MTV](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dumbgood) television show Cribs, 'Animal Cribs' by [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-pups) channel Heavy Petting is adorable. The hilarious video will have you laughing the entire time. Heavy Petting's latest video, entitled 'Hamster-High Rise,' has host Maronzio Vance going into the habitat of Benny the Hamster.

Maronzio Vance has a way of turning the average hamster abode into a pimped out, bad-ass crib. Paired with the in-your-face graphic texts and witty puns throughout, this video really makes it seem like Benny the hamster really is living the high-life.

The video follows the same format of MTV's Cribs by showing you around the [hamster cage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ontario-hamster-club) starting at the foyer, bubble tube elevator, feeding dish, water bottle and even the 7-inch gerbil ball.
