Maybe this should be fixed?
I noticed in Shepard's cabin, after the husk head from the Leviathan lab is sent there, that if you click to view the space hamster, the head screams at it and the hamster returns to its house even q...

Community AdminIt seems that this would be a deliberate QoL choice (for the hamster) so that one could peacefully activate the hamster post head-acquisition without stressing it out.
I actually never knew this was a thing, but I'll definitely be doing it on my next playthrough. 🙂

I took the same view on my first playthrough. I.e. my FemShep just isn't that sort of girl!
Anyway, pretty much playing the same game with the same character on Insanity, I did get the husk head...just because it's a trophy. The only change I made on Insanity was wooing Liara. Banged James (my first score in the series) on Normal difficulty but it turns out he's not a "proper" romantic interest...so, choices being limited...Liara. Pity about the lack of choices though...human ones, I mean.
I think the human romances in ME3 are:
Kaidan Alenko
Ashley Williams
Samantha TraynorMiranda Lawson (minor)
Jack (minor)
Diana Allers (minor)
But like the husk head, Diana Allers isn't getting anywhere near my ship. If they can a reporter from IGN in their game, they could also afford to get Mordin's original voice actor back. (Yes, I'm still mad about that! Talk about conflict of interest. :o )

It's only a "thing" when you click the husk head first though...not a problem if you only click on the hamster.
A "glass half empty" kind of person might imagine that if you click on the husk head before leaving the cabin, the hamster will never eat again!
A "glass half full" kind of person might imagine that eventually the hamster will work out that the husk head's bark is worse that in its bite...and flip it the bird after a while!
One design choice that I am annoyed with...I had no idea about that paddle fish "thing". I played as Fem Shep and I don't think that she got the option to have the yeoman look after her fish in ME2. Maybe years and years down the track I'll play badman Shep and get this "thing". Otherwise, it's disappointing that some of these "things" are impossible to get unless you know about them beforehand...but I did get that nice pay off in ME3 with that fan of Sheps...we didn't swap bodily fluids, but we did swap data for war assets...all of them!

...maybe there should be a sedative you can give the husk head to calm it down when you want to interact with the hamster?
...or maybe move the husk head to a less stressful location for it?
