sad day..
Unfortunately tonight we have had to have my daughters russian campbells hamster pts
We bought her at P@H and the person who checked her over said she had a little dampness around her bottom but he said it wasn't wet tail.
We had her about 6 weeks and she pooed alot and we thought it was change of food, not anything else as we were told otherwise. She seemed quite lively most of the time.
I checked on her tonight and she looked asleep and although breathing was quite still, I noticed something wasn't right so we took her to the vets he said she had had a prolapse and i was best to put her to sleep.
How do I tell my daughter who is away atm? do I ring her?
Last time I get a hamster from there!

Re: sad day..
I think wet tail is only in syrians, so the person was right. Poor hammie. RIP little one. At least he had a good home for a while.
You know your daughter best...

Sleep well little one x
I was away when my Mo had to be pts, and before I went I told my mum that I wanted her to call me straight away if anything happened to little Mo (although I didnt think it would )
However, I am 27 and could just about handle it - I take it your daughter is alot younger? It may be best to wait xx

Re: sad day..
Poor baby, i hate it when pet shops are so stupid!
Its best to let your daughter have a final goodbye, wait until she gets back, i don't know what your vet did with your hamster after she passed (and i'm sur eyou don't wnat to go into the details)
But i'm hoping you can put her in a final resting place and let your daughter decorate the grave and say her prayers. Kids can cope remarkably well with these things, sometimes even better than adults.
Rest in peace and look after all our dearly departed hammies up there lil one xx

Re: sad day..
Sorry to hear about your loss, when we loose a pet we my daughter either makes a little card or writes a little note card saying how much we loved them and goodbye from everyone, we then bury it with them so they have something. If it's too late to do this you could always let her release a balloon with message on it. It all depends how old she is really.
Sleep well little hammie.
