Lolita Lemming passed away last night. She came to live with us in March 2013 with her mother and 2 aunts or older sisters, we were never sure of their relationship. She was only 2 weeks old and about 3cm long. She grew up so fast but never got as big or fat as the other steppe lemmings so we always worried about her health. Her small size meant we could always tell which of the 4 was Lolita. She was a lovely little pet and loved running in her wheel and flying saucer. Even though she was tiny she would happily jump on to the palm of a hand to be lifted out for a little run about on the couch. We will miss her.
This is a photo from July 2014. Lolita is the lemming to the left of the flying saucer.

This is a video from May 2013. The lemmings are in their travel box while their tank was being cleaned. I think Lolita is the lemming that runs along the log and is third to jump on to the flying saucer.
