Killer hamster ices owner

Is this muderous hamster a relative of the rodent in this film? I just wonder what the plush toys that will undoubtably be made from this incident will look like ...

A Japanese man died after a bite from his pet hamster caused anaphylactic shock, Mainichi Shimbun reports. Ther nameless forty-something succumbed after repeated bites from the animal sensitised his immune system to such a degree that the final mouthful provoked a fatal bout of asthma.
