Matthew C. Nobria, Viscount Metallica - In Loving Memory

Matthew C. Nobria, Viscount Metallica
8th October 2016 - 4th July 2018
I found my Matthew in his forever sleep earlier this afternoon. He was always the clown of Metallica Hamstery making me laugh with his funny antics, he had his mother’s gentle soul.
Matthew was one of the first hamsters born at Metallica and became the hamstery’s most successful show hamsters winning a Best In Show, two Reserve Best In Shows as well as numerous class placings.
Sleep well my funny boy... your mummy Victoria is waiting for you at the bridge.

Re: Matthew C. Nobria, Viscount Metallica - In Loving Memory
Fluffagrams, I am so very sorry that you have had to say goodbye to your most handsome and funny little man. Having met you and the show team so recently, I feel your loss very keenly indeed. Matthew certainly did you proud at shows and leaves a lasting legacy at Metallica.
Play well at the bridge Matthew with mother Victoria and the other Metallica hams who will have been there to welcome you.

Re: Matthew C. Nobria, Viscount Metallica - In Loving Memory
I'm so sorry Fluffagrams, Matthew was such a sweet lovely little man, such a great character as well as a little star at the shows, he will be sadly missed but such special memories to treasure forever.
Thinking of you.
Run free & play well at the bridge with your Mum Matthew.

I am so very sorry fluffagrams to hear this news. Matthew was so lucky to be breed by you and have such a amazing home with you were he was well loved and spoilt! My condolences go out to you during this sad time as I can relate to how you are feeling at the moment
Play well at the bridge Matthew with your Mum, Victoria!

Re: Matthew C. Nobria, Viscount Metallica - In Loving Memory
Thank you everyone. Matthew was buried the day he died in the memorial garden next to his mother and I like to think that she will keep him safe just as she did when he was a baby.
Matthew’s death was a shock to me as he was absolutely fine the night before. He wasn’t even two years old and was still bringing home prize cards a couple of weeks ago. The hamster room is certainly quieter and feels more empty without such a big personality to fill it.
The new hammock I ordered for him arrived today and it seemed especially sad as he never got to use it.

Re: Matthew C. Nobria, Viscount Metallica - In Loving Memory
It’s lovely to hear he buried beside his Victoria I’m sure she will protect him and show him around the bridge!
I can related both to the sudden passing and receiving an order especially for Matthew - as the same thing happened to me with Pumpkin. It’s a real stab in the heart moment! Especially knowing how they would love their new things - I’m sure when you feel ready another ham will enjoy the hammock just as much as he would.

Sending you big hugs Fluffagrams, I loved hearing about Matthew's adventures and so lovely he's buried next to Victoria.
