She Wasn't Joking...

It’s true. She didn’t lie to me and it is not some sick prank (not that I think she would play such a cruel prank).

One of my hammy really did pass away. And the hammy was my sister’s hammy. Even though when we bought them, we decided to differentiate it, like who owns which hammy. I still can’t believe that smallfry died. I mean, we might have differentiated them and have personal ownership over them. I still love both of them very dearly. We still loved them both equally and dearly. They are just such adorable things.

In fact, last night when my sister called me up and told me about it, I was very much in denial and can’t really accept the fact. Not that I accepted the fact this morning. But I had to accept the cruel, harsh fact when my sister just arrive at my aunt’s place not long ago, along with my hammy. She had to bring her along because she has not been acting like her usual running around self.

According to my sister, ever since the incident, she’s been acting weird. She was hiding in the bottle jar that we place in the aquarium (serve as their cage). Also, when my sister bathe her last night, she didn’t struggle like she usually did and didn’t even bother to dry herself. My sister had to resort to drying her manually, which was rubbing her fur. Considering we can’t exactly place her under the fan or hairdryer, it would kill her. And losing one hamster was bad enough, I don’t think we want to go through another lost anytime soon.

I can’t believe how big an effect the little hammy could have upon me. When my sister explained the situation when she found them, I couldn’t help but cry. I feel like such a useless owner. I can’t believe smallfry left us.

This is few of our hammies’ picture, in order to remember her.


In here, there are sleeping, just like how they usually are.


This is a picture of Smallfry asleep. Isn't she just adorable...

This is when my sister manage to coax her into sleeping in her palm.


I think I'll go check up on Kichi now. I hope she's not too sad over the lost of her bestie/sister.

  1. Oh no! Yesterday I read your latest post and I spent the day hoping to hear better news, but there aren´t...so my deepest sympathy for you and your cute hammy. The pictures are so cute! Some years ago i also had a hammy - he was called Leonardo - and i was so sad the day he died. My mother found him and told me he left us. I could not believe it, i could not believe he passed away. I feel with you and hope you will get well soon.

    greetings, julia

  2. im so sorry about the lost of your hammy, kerry. crying over a pet is not silly,really. u are allowed to cry because honestly subconsciously, you are attached to your pet. if anything happens to my cats, i will surely break down.
