Bought April 4th 2013 when she was 6 weeks old I think. Passed away this sunday.
I am so upset because I did not see this coming. There was no signs of illness. She was fine saturday which was the last time I saw her awake. All sunday I did not hear or see her. I figured she was having a lazy day. I was also so busy studying that I did not take her out for playtime. I feel so guilty. I have no idea if it was quick, or was she suffering? For how long did she lay there dying.. Gah I need to get those thoughts out of my head cos there is nothing I can do now anyway.
She had a rough life my little one. She was infected by mites for almost 4 months on and off. Her cage was eventually so boring and plain cos I could not have stuff in there. (I had to clean the cage ALOT cos of the mites) Instead I had her out around 3 hours per day - which resulted in her getting SO tame. Dog-tame-like.. She would follow me around in my house. Sitting on my feet when I was cooking. Crawling up and down my legs. Like a little hamster puppy. I adored her - I am so chocked that she suddenly just passed away for no obvious reason.
Me and my husband burried her in the forest last night.. I hope that she is happy, where she is now.
(I found her laying on her back with open eyes.. If that can tell something about her death..? Also, she had a house made of grass/hay or something? I bought it at the pet store made for hamsters - so I didnt think that it could harm her... She did eat ALOT of this house. It had almost broken apart. Now that I think about it, I fear that this house could have maybe caused some stomach/gut problem? I am so upset that I did not think of this earlier and take the house out. If that was what killed her. I just hope that she did not suffer...)
Here is some of the cutest pictures I have taken of her over the past year...
