Golden Hamster Saga - Characters

Characters

  • Freddy Auratus - A smart, golden hamster who can read and write, but only with a keyboard. He can talk in Interanimal, and other pets often ask him to type something to Mr. John for them.
  • Enrico and Caruso - Enrico is a smaller guinea pig, while Caruso is a larger one. They often taunt Freddy by saying guinea pigs are superior to golden hamsters. They enjoy singing songs, writing plays and making animals laugh. They are named after the famous opera singer, Enrico Caruso.
  • Sir William - Sir William is a 'respectable' tom cat who says he will not kill an animal for food. He also always makes laws for the other pets to obey and is loyal to Mr. John. However, later in the series, Sir William catches mice.
  • Mr. John - A human that takes care of all the pets. He can understand Freddy by the words the hamster types on Freddy's computer.
  • Tjark (Pronounced ch-ARK) - First appearing in the fifth book, Tjark is a robotic hamster that was built by Goldoni, an Italian scientist. He is friends with Enrico, Caruso, & Sir William.
  • Sophie - A young girl, and Freddy's original owner.

Famous quotes containing the word characters:

    Though they be mad and dead as nails,
    Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
    Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
    And death shall have no dominion.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Socialist writers are made of sterner stuff than those who only let their characters steeplechase through trouble in order to come out first in the happy ending of moral uplift.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    There are as many characters in men
    As there are shapes in nature.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
