She had put the cage down on the pavement outside of my house & was trying to pick Pico up through the cage. I kept insisting it really was okay, and to not get him out where he could easily run off and never be caught. She just wanted to say goodbye, but my heart was pounding.

Oh my gosh! Pico could have escaped. She really does not seem to understand hamsters. It is such a relief you rescued him. I have heard of some hamsters spinning and such due to malnutrition and lack of enrichment. Hopefully now that Pico is with you his health will improve.
