Default Re: Rip tilly

I am so sorry for your loss. She was a decent age for a hamster and it sounds as if her system was overwhelmed by some internal infection possibly. I wouldn't worry over the dischage from the nose and back end during her final hours as this is common as the body systems close down. At this point they are normally pretty much unconcious so she would not have been in pain. It's a strange thing though I have found that often they get the gift of a twilight time when they know you are there and I always feel that is their time to say bye bye and don't worry. I think she got that.
Play well at the bridge Tilly - you were much loved x
