Default Sweet Dreams My Beautiful Master Harvey

My Dazzling White Beauty Master Harvey was put to sleep on Thursday 16th August, he was
2 years & 5 months.
I'm heartbroken and couldn't face doing this thread right away.

As you know, Master Harvey had been slowing down and I made several changes to his cage so he could get about. It's always heartbreaking when you see your little one struggle.
On Thursday Morning, he was very wobbly and his coat looked so dull & sweaty and kept a close eye on him throughout the day . Within a space of an hour he was lying in his cage.
I phoned up the vet and explained his symptons and was told to bring him at 7pm.
I cuddled him and placed him in his carrier and got a taxi to the vet.
I was very anxious as Master Harvey had never been to the vet and I had changed vet. The vet was so understanding, and she handled Master Harvey so gently as she examined him and spoke softly. My boy was the perfect gent.
We both came to the decision to have him euthanised, I didn't want to see him suffer anymore and was given time to see my goodbyes.When the vet brought him back, he looked so at peace and pain free.
The vet gave me time with him and I held him, stroked him and kissed him goodbye.
When I got home I sobbed my heart out.

Master Harvey dazzled me from the day I brought him home, he gave me so much joy, happiness and laughter and made me so proud to be his mom.
I'll never forget his Ham-trums, Hamnastics, hiding in plain sight then peeking out, the cuddles and those wonderful whisker kisses.
The Ham-Orchestra with his ham-friends, hamousine & hampagne brought me so much laughter. The input from yourselves and your wonderful hams made it come to life.

Master Harvey you will be forever loved and in my heart and never forgotten, R.I.P my white beauty lots of love your mom xxxx

Oh Lizzy, I can't say how sorry I am, I was really saddened to see this news, huge hugs to you.
Master Harvey was such a wonderful little man & very special friend to you, you had such great times together & he couldn't have wanted for a better life or a more loving Mum, such a hard decision for you to have to make for him but you did your very best for him always right up until the end.
I'm glad the vet was so gentle with him & his passing was as peaceful as it could have been.
He lived to such a good age & was a real credit to your love & care.
You must be missing him so much & he will be missed here on HC too, but he will always be remembered & live on forever in your heart.

Run free & play well at the bridge Master Harvey.

Really sorry to hear this, Master Harvey was a lovely little boy. He definitely had a long and happy life. I’m sure it was very hard to make that final decision but it was the best thing for him and I’m sure he appreciates that. Sleep tight little man.

Oh TL I am so sorry. Such a hard thing to do but it was the right thing and Master Harvey is now pain free. It doesn't seem long since he turned 2. 2 years 5 months is very old and you helped him all the way. Do take care xxx

So sorry for your loss, Thin Lizzy. Master Harvey was such a wonderful hamster and he had an amazing, long life with you. He was really lucky to have you as an owner.

Play well at the Bridge, Master Harvey.

Bloody Hell TL,
I am so sorry to read that post about Master Harvey, what a wonderful Hammy he was.
He is now pain free and I bet he and Pip have teamed up already and has been introduced to Forrest, jeez the rainbow bridge will never be the same, think of all the noise with the Ham-orchestra going hammer and tongs....
We can do no more than offer you hugs and our thoughts, I'm sure Ghost will be sad too when he is informed later tonight.

Oh TL! I’m so sorry for your loss! Master Harvey was such a lucky little man-ham to have fallen into your hands! He will be remembered dearly by all of us. It was very nice to hear that the vet put him to sleep and he didn’t have any pain. I’m sending huge hugs at this hard and difficult time.
