Well, dammit.
Less than 24 hours ago I was counting my blessings, including the fact that my old ass hamster was still amongst the living. Little did I know he only had 8 hours of life left.
I love you Hamster. Mommy and Daddy miss you tremendously. There will never be a fuzzy-butted little hamster anywhere near as wonderful and sweet as you.
R.I.P. Little Hamster… sorry to hear about this loss.

They’d just as soon bite your hand off as look at you. So these last 2 have been just normal little furries and they’ve been so sweet. My little guy was only 2 1/2.

We are sorry to take so long to comment. Work has been a bear lately…. we read this with deep sorrow. We know all too well the deep hurt of losing a furry family member. We are sorry for your loss and know we are praying for you through this time of sorrow. We usually build scrapbooks of the furries we have lost… it helps in a strange way as we go over the memories and shed a lot of tears…

Awwww…what a precious thing to write. Thank you. I haven’t been back to the blog since I wrote this post until tonight. It made me sad thinking of my little furry. But comments like yours make it easier–all the sweetness is so very appreciated. I love the idea of a scrapbook. I make mugs of my little critters so that I can see their little faces when I drink coffee. Thanks for the kind prayers–at least I know my little guy is in hamster heaven with the best wheel ever and more food than he could ever eat. 🙂

The mention of hamster brings back so many memories. We had hamsters for several years and the little buggers were always getting out of the cage. Finding them was hopeless until late at night when the sound of scratching revealed their hiding place. And then there was the time we found one floating in the toilet. Oh my goodness! Traumatic to lose any pet, but the good news is they can be replaced.

Escapee hamsters!! They are such little stinkers!! Though finding one in the toilet really sucks. That would kill me, I’m quite sure. My hubby felt so badly about how sad I was that he got me a look alike hamster 2 days later. Now we have New Hamster and he’s adorable. It helps take the sting out at least a tiny bit. 🙂
