*Takes deep breath*
Right so as you can guess i have recently lost someone very special to me, i lost my beautiful hybrid girl Daisy just under a month ago. (11.09.2013), not only was it one of the most heartbreaking things i have EVER experienced it was also a week and one day before my birthday when she passed away. Daisy was my best friend, I know i shouldn’t say it but out of all the hamsters ive had she left the biggest paw print on my heart. She had something wrong with her eye. I tried everything to make it better myself, then i took her to the vets, just as i thought everything was going to be okay, i was too late. She had been having troubles with her eyes on and off, i went through stages thinking she might die and then thinking she wouldn’t. I would have done anything to have her for longer or make her better but i guess it wasn’t meant to be. Everything seemed fine on the 11.09.2013, i got her out of her cage, cleaned her eye, held and played with her,nothing had changed in her personality,Then at night i went to go and get her to clean her eye again it was about 1am in the morning, I opened the cage and she didn’t come out, so i tapped on her house, ( she always without fail came out) i knew instantly what i was about to see. I’m obviously not going to go in to detail but she was gone. I ran in to the kitchen to my dad and just fell on the floor in hysterics. I felt broken and i still do. I gave her one last cuddle, i had her out for about an hour before i could even think about burying her. I could tell everyone in my house was just as shocked as i was. My mum was crying as well. The way she died looked horrible
I just hope she wasn’t in too much pain. I’m heartbroken i didn’t get to say goodbye while she was still alive. I just hope she knew how much i loved her and how much she meant to me. She was 18 months. I’m finding it hard just to type this because i feel like I’m going to cry again, but i want to type this so everyone can see how much she meant to me. My mum got Daisy for me as a surprise.
I will never forget the gorgeous little face that slowly came out of that box. I remember when i first got her, she wouldn’t let me hold her, she would bite me and other family members, also she used to tell people off by making this really loud noise, i cant ever describe it, but it was pretty scary coming from such a little hamster lol. Me & my mum were cleaning her out one day, this was in the first few months of having her, she ended up biting my mum and just hanging off her finger. Its crazy to think she was like this at the start, because it took awhile but in the end i had the greatest hamster ever, she was super friendly, she loved it when i laid on the sofa, i would put her on my tummy and she would just run up and down from my legs to my chest, she also liked using my leg as a slide lol. My nick name for her was * frog legs* when i first got her, her legs just reminded me of frogs legs i thought they would changed but they didn’t it was so cute. She has the cutest tail it was like a little cotton wool tail. The cutest little nose and the most gorgeous set of hamster eyes i have ever seen. She used to do *spider pig* as we call it. She used to climb on the bars of her cage upside down, she was so fast, me and my little brothers would just sit their and watch her and start singing * spider pig, spider pig, does whatever a spider pig does* (Its from the Simpson’s movie for people who don’t know lol
If she was ever out and i wanted to hold her, she would climb to the top bars, let me place my hand under her and she would just climb right on to my hand
Ive lost count the amount of times i lost her while we were playing on the floor, she would always run under the sofa, then about 5/10 minute’s later she would poke head out ( i think in the end she thought it was a game lol) She was so gentle too, sometimes i could have her on me and just forget she was on me. Ive had so many amazing times with her and i wouldn’t change anything. I’m so glad my mum got her for me. The 18 months i had her were the best 18 months of my life and hopefully hers too. Whenever i was sad the first person i want to was Daisy, just holding her made me feel better tbh, sometimes i would just sit their and talk to her, she used to make this sound, it made me think she was talking back to me. I’m going to leave it here now. but Daisy you were the most amazing hamster, people say that they get animals to save them and make there life’s better, well that’s what she did for me. Its horrible knowing your gone, i miss my night time cuddles, i miss watching you sit in the your food dish & i miss watching you run in and out of your tubes and listening to you on your wheel. I know deep down your in a better place now, Mummy loves you very much Daisy, i hope your behaving at the bridge and looking after everyone else, like you were me. I miss you so much, i love you with all my heart. Sweet dreams princess warrior. <3 xxxxxx
