Default Re: How long do they live?

I've had 19 hamsters now, but most were family pets when I was younger, so I'll try to remember as far back as I can go. The most recent are nearest the top. (S) is Syrian, (RD) is Russian Dwarf.

Squirt (S): MALE 2003-2005, roughly 1yr 4 months, not entirely sure of what he died from. He seemed very healthy!

Scruff (S): MALE 2003, roughly 7 months old. We believe he died from bad breeding. Charlie and Lilly were brother and sister who had 'got together' producing Squirt and Scruff.

Charlie (S): FEMALE 2003-2004, roughly 1yr 6 months, died from wet tail.

Lilly (S): MALE! 2003- 2005, roughly 2 yrs 3 months, old age.

Maisie (S): FEMALE 2000 - 2002, roughl 2 years 1 month, old age.

Daisy (RD): FEMALE 2000-2002, roughly 2 years, old age.

Prickles (RD): MALE 1997 - 1999, roughly 2 yrs, old age.

Fluffy (RD): MALE 1997 - 1999, roughly 2 yrs, old age.

Sugar (S): FEMALE 1996 - 1998, roughly 2 years 4 months, old age.

Cracker (S): MALE 1993 - 1996, roughly 2 years 6 months, went into hibernation and died.

No name (S): FEMALE 1992, only a few weeks, had an unfortunate incident with the dog on the way home from the pet sop I was gutted

Hammy (S): MALE 1990 - 1994, 3 yrs and a few months, he lived for so long, I was convinced he'd never die! But age caught up with him in the end.

And the ones before Hammy: Linford, Beardsley, Bertie, Molly, Harry, and those before them, I don't remember the names. I can't remember how long they lived.
