"Wtf was she thinking?" another added.
"Hamsters do actually take up a lot of time, I bet it's left to rot after the fun wears off, especially with a newborn coming.
"The woman is so selfish!"
"If your children have additional needs and you're allowing them to live in this filth then you're an even worse mum of what I thought already," a third sighed.

"Why the f**k have you got a pet in these circumstances?" someone else wondered.
"You don’t deserve kids or pets," another cruelly commented.

Elsewhere in the video, Nicole explained that however hard she works to get her "tiny" two-bedroom house into shape, she always feels like she's "drowning".
"I never feel like the house is good enough," she sighed.
"Even when it is all tidy, it doesn't feel tidy. We don't have the money to get all the storage stuff.
"And I need to also be saving for a car. How do people find the money?
"And how do people manage on a low-income household doing all these things?
"You guys can hate me all you like, but I really really need your advice."
Predicting that people were going to respond telling her to get a job, Nicole added: "I'm working really hard to improve my social media so I can earn more money.
"And I'm always on the lookout for jobs for myself.
"Although I don't know how I'd manage a full-time social media career, a job and all my kids' appointments too.
