About
The Hamster emoji (🐹) is the adorable pocket-sized ambassador of cuteness overload, complete with tiny cheeks that look perpetually stuffed with snacks. People reach for this little guy when describing anything small and precious, expressing their own chaotic energy (especially late-night snacking), or when they're feeling like they're running in circles but getting nowhere—just like a hamster on a wheel.

Hamsters can stuff up to 20% of their body weight in food into their cheek pouches, which is probably why this emoji's chubby cheeks became such a defining feature—they're basically tiny, furry grocery bags with legs.
One emoji wins every day. Will this one best tell the story of 12/29/25? Get rewarded for guessing right.
