Beverley continued: “Ive been appreciating having a lot more free time to do the things I love the most, such as creating these scenes for the hamsters.

Bevs 8 hamsters have all been entailed in the scenes, which can take hours to develop.

“People ask exactly how to obtain their hamsters to sit still or how to tame a hamster so they dont attack or ruin the collection.

The mum-of-four, from Devizes in Wiltshire, has even let her hamsters give the NHS a hand.

Beverley explained: “Id thought about posing the hamsters in these coronavirus-related scenes for quite a while, when we first went into isolation.

“I didnt want to do anything in bad taste so I decided that it would be better to have them do things such as help the NHS, as opposed to the hamsters pretending to have coronavirus.

“Really Ive just been inspired by things that we have done in lockdown – endless amounts of laundry, cleaning the kitchen and quite a lot of time with some wine in the hot tub!”

Ah, that explains a lot.

Beverley continued: “Ive been enjoying having more free time to do the things I love the most, such as creating these scenes for the hamsters.

“The hospital probably took about four full days to do. I have to say, my other half was extremely helpful because he 3D printed the little hand wash pumps and also the table that the ventilator sits on.

“The bellows in the ventilator do actually work – its incredible – and my daughter Maddy did all the paper folding for that. My mum knitted the little blanket for the bed so it was a really big family effort.

“Normally everybodys rushing out to do their own things but now its so nice to have everybody around the table doing something together and chatting.”

Bevs eight hamsters have all been involved in the scenes, which can take hours to create.

She added: “Everything is made from scratch, its all very fiddly and can take a couple of tries. All the action happens on the kitchen table, so its a regular thing to see the family eating their supper around a half constructed golf course or MasterChef set.

“People ask how to get their hamsters to sit still or how to tame a hamster so they dont bite or destroy the set. The simple answer is patience and lots of perseverance – and a little bit of peanut butter!”
