nikkigrace's thread of hybrid fluffs

[Nikkigrace]

As my little hamily is continuing to grow, I thought I would combine all my beautiful hybrid fluffs together.

First, there is Bertles who is about 15 months old. I got him from Pets at home about a year ago. He's gorgeous, very friendly and just a happy little man! You can find the start of his story (and his brother Ernie) here... http://www.hamstercentral.com/community/hybrid-hamsters/36179-bert-ernie.html

Here he is helping me open a new thread...

I also have little fluff ball Freddie, approx 1 year old. His original owner moved abroad and Freddie got passed around a few people before ending up in my care. He seems to have a few patches of fur loss on his back and quite bizarrely has a grey fluffy bum. He quite often carries a rather angry looking face, but he's totally amazing and he wouldn't be my Freddie if he was any other way. The start of Freddie's life with me can be found here...http://www.hamstercentral.com/community/hybrid-hamsters/44153-freddie-fluff.html

Finally, please welcome Little Miss Pepperpot who is estimated at 10 weeks old. This little girl joined the hamily just yesterday during a visit to Poms house. I visited the local P@H for a little browse and saw this stunning little lady who had been returned to the store as an unwanted pet. Her colour is simply beautiful and I knew she needed a loving home. Poms very helpfully came up with her name, which started off as a suggestion of Pepper due to her 'salt and pepper' fur colouring, but as she is so dinky, Little Miss Pepperpot suits her perfectly. She is temporarily in a mini duna during our stay here with Poms but will move into a Zoozone once I get back home. She has a little bit of cage rage and will nip fingers that approach her in her cage at the moment but she has had some big changes recently and I am sure this will settle down. Once out of her cage she seems very gentle and inquisitive, I am looking forward to getting to know her full personality.

Eeee hello little ones! Hopefully i'll get to meet you all someday..minus cage rage ;) xxxx

[evel_lin]

Awwww Miss Pepperpot is so sweet! Freddie is gorgeous and Bertles is lovely too, he reminds me of my hybrid boys :)

[icklemunch]

Oh my gosh Miss Pepperpot is stunning :) Her colouring is just beautiful. Bertles and Freddie are as gorgeous as ever.

[Kiki_3173]

Nikkigrace...I always love to see your fluffs. I have a special place in my heart for those little feisty ones you have, like Feddie and Little Miss Pepperpot! She bears a strong resemblance to a little fluff I used to know! ;-)

[CreamSyrian]

Eeeeek! Miss Pepperpot is stunning :) I love seeing updates on your fluffs, Freddie and Bertles are looking as gorgeous as ever.

[kyrilliondaemon]

They're all lovely Nikki :)

[DrKMcK]

Oh, oh, oh. Little Miss Pepperpot!!! Oh I love her to pieces! She's ... I am speechless! It's the coloring, it's just beautiful. Bert and Freddie fluff are wonderful handsome little guys, but my, my, she is amazing. :-D

[Munchalot]

They are all absolutely gorgeous. Little Miss Pepperpots is just so stunning, that little face just melts me!! :D

[Petite1]

They are beautiful Nikkix

[Axeria]

aww! they are just gorgeus! Lovely little fluffs, I adore Freddy! :D

[Nikkigrace]

Thanks guys, I love these little fluffs so much and I think Little Miss Pepperpot is going to fit in perfectly. She's now at home and settling into her zoozone cage. It's another change for her so I will give her a few days to get used to it and then try and take some photos of her in her new home :)

Thank you Poms for letting Pepper borrow one of your cages while we stayed over :) she is very grateful xx

[souffle]

Aww you have some totally gorgeous little ones each and every one! You won't need a TV as they are much better to watch at night ;)

[RachK]

What gorgeous hams but oh Little Miss Pepperpot! What a cutie!! How could anyone return her?!

[pixiehollow]

They are all gorgeous, oooh I want cuddles :)

[Nikkigrace]

It has been far too long since I updated on here. Unfortunately personal circumstances meant I haven't been able to get online as much but I'm back, with a big update on everyone.

Unfortunately it starts with some sad news, Freddie passed over to the bridge a couple of weeks ago now. He had a variety of health issues, including diabetes but was doing relatively well considering. He passed away in his sleep and I believe he was in no pain. He wasn't with me for long, but he was a great little character and I miss him dearly. A memorial will follow at some point, but for now, here are some of the last photos I have of him.

Bertles update also involves a little bit of sad news as the little man seems to be struggling a little at the moment. He has lost quite a lot of weight and is very boney now bless him. The vet has given him the all clear as far as she can, of any health issues and has put the weight loss down to old age. He is only 18 months old so not necessarily what I would consider old but with him being a hybrid, his life expectancy isn't perhaps as long. Anyway, he is still relatively active and friendly so I am hoping he has a little while with me yet! He certainly needs to soldier on for a couple more weeks so he can come with me to visit Poms, his biggest fan!!!

Pepper is settling in really well. She is quite a diva however! Everything must be done on her terms and she sure lets me know if she isn't keen on coming out for cuddles when I try. She is gorgeous and very gentle when she is out of her cage.

And finally, please welcome the latest addition!! This is Crackers! He is a pets at home adoption ham and stole my heart when I visited the store last week. He has only been here a few days so is very much still settling in but I have a feeling this inquisitive little dude will keep me very entertained

[evel_lin]

aw I'm sorry to hear you've lost Freddie, he was such a beautiful ham.

Crackers is very sweet :)

[Rosebud]

Sorry about your loss:-( I love Miss Pepper. The colouring is beautiful :-)

[Kiki_3173]

So sorry to hear about Freddie:-(. He was such a handsome little man!

Crackers is absolutely adoreable!

[CreamSyrian]

I'm sorry to hear about Freddie :( he was such a sweetheart and his fur looked so soft and silky.

Crackers is adorable! Its great that another member has adopted. And I love Phoebe's colouring :D

Fingers crossed for Bertles as well, I hope he gets to see Poms!

[DrKMcK]

It's sad to hear that Freddie has gone on to the Bridge, but at least we all know his last days were in a loving home and he had everything he could want. All you hammies have really gorgeous coloring. Little Miss Pepper pot and Crackers are opposites in coloring and both are stunning. Really all beautiful fluffs. :-D

[Biscotti]

I can't believe I haven't seen this thread before. I love seeing all of your fluffs, they always look so happy and beautiful. :) I'm very sorry to hear about Freddie, I hope he has a good time at the Bridge. :'(

[Munchalot]

Oh no. :'( I'm so sorry for your loss, poor little Freddie... He may not have had long with you, but in that time he received more care and affection than many hams have over their whole lives. He was well loved. x

Also, Crackers is adorable! :D Such a sweet little face <3

[Pompompoms]

Some much love for Freddie and Bertles, such utterly gorgeous boys, and so loved in the poms household xxx.

I'm glad little miss Pepper pots is doing so well, and that she's so fiesty! I am looking forward to meeting Crackers so much, as I said, I think Mr. Pomns may have a new favorite!!
