Hamilton, or more commonly known as Hammy, is the tritagonist of the Over the Hedge franchise, serving as the tritagonist of DreamWorks' 12th full-length animated feature film Over the Hedge, and the titular main protagonist of its short film, Hammy's Boomerang Adventure. He is a naïve and innocent red squirrel and RJ and Verne's best friend.

==Background==
===Personality===
Hammy is a hyperactive red squirrel whose mouth moves as fast as his feet. He is innocent, but intelligent (despite acting dim-witted many times). His intellect is shown, when, while he's moving really fast due to drinking an energy drink, he sets everything up so that Vincent, Gladys Sharp and Dwayne LaFontant are all simultaneously defeated. He is also curious and very childish in nature, with an extremely short attention span. He often gets on the nerves of those around him, but endears himself to them at the same time. Hammy can run at the speed of light and has fast reflexes. He's obsessed with cookies and loves to drink energy drinks.
===Physical appearance===
Hammy is a small, anthropomorphic red squirrel with a fuzzy coat, buck teeth, tiny fingers, brown markings, a white muzzle and tummy, a bushy tail and bright green eyes.
==Movie role==
He is the first animal to encounter the hedge while trying to find his nuts and instantly becomes paranoid when encountering it, he advises the animals about the hedge and start to investigate it, because the animals got worried about not knowing what it is, he decides to call it Steve because he likes the name (possibly being a reference to his voice actor Steve Carrell). Upon first meeting RJ, Hammy became extremely fond of him, completely naive at the fact that RJ was using them. In the scene where the world stops turning due to Hammy drinking soda, he moves ahead as the others freeze. He adjusts the laser trap lengths, turns on the lasers, retrieves the chocolate-chip cookie from the roof and eats the cookie while going back to the hedge and then the world resumes turning.
