My lovely little hamster has died and I'm really upset. She was only 6 months old!
I walked past her cage and spotted something white behind her wheel (a free standing one) and assumed it was some bedding. I walked past again later and spotted her little feet.
She's laid on her back behind her wheel, I assume she was climbing on the roof of her cage and has fallen and hurt herself and died. That would be why she's laid on her back wouldn't it?
I noticed she was very quiet last night but never spotted her behind the wheel, I assumed she was sleeping because sometimes she would get up later.
I had a good sob and showed 2yo DS and explained to him the best I could. His first response was "will we get a new hamster?", then I said maybe (no) and he said "I want this one best" then I had another sob. He wants to know why grandad is going to take her away, I'm too much of a wuss to move her myself so I've covered her cage with a sheet so I can't see in. DS loved her and used to show her all his toys!
What a rubbish start to the day! I will miss my little hamster :(
