I'm so sorry to hear about your little ham. As Cypher says, two years is a good age, and she obviously had a life with you where she was safe and loved, which is as much as we can do for our furry friends. It will feel like a gaping hole in your life at first, but the passing of time does help.
When I lost my hybrid in January I couldn't handle cleaning the cage at all, and in the end my daughter did it for me and put it away. Have you got someone who could deal with it if you don't feel able to face it?
Give yourself time to grieve. Maple had a long and happy life, and in time perhaps you will feel able to offer a loving home to another ham. Maple will find lots of friends over the bridge.
