I am so so sorry to hear this.

Pamela may have had an underlying illness no one could have known about. Sometimes hamsters die young and unexpectedly of unknown causes which is no consolation to you and your family.

You could get a hamster from a rescue or adoption center, one that has already lived for a few months and is in need of a good and loving home.
Or check the small ads at Gumtree if you are in the UK. I always feel so sorry for the poor unwanted hamsters advertised for sale because people buy them then want to get rid of them.

I have two adopted ones myself and one who i bought as a pet shop baby. They are all different species with their own characteristics.

You could even adopt two in two seperate cages of course providing you have the space. Just a thought.
