Awww (((Hugs))) I know what you mean about being your soul mate,it's amazing how deep the bond is between us and them. I know it's cliche but time can be a great healer,and when the pain isn't so raw,you can look back at all the fun times you and Mandy shared.

Take care xxx

Silver I am so sorry It is hard when we have to let them go, its the price we pay for all the happiness they give us in their short lives.

I know its so cliched but time really is a great healer, and one day, when the pain has subsided you will be able to look back and think about her and smile.

Sleep Well little mandy, look after your mummy from up there xxxxx

I just want to thank every one again.

Thank You for your kind words, understanding & support. I have kept myself busy & uploaded all of her pics & vids 65 pics & 64 vids. All very treasured memorys & a lot more locked in my heart that were not captured.

I had to make a desicion do I carry on with the mix's or do I stop now. I thought long & hard what Mandy would want me to do. The answer is I am carrying on to give all hammy's the chance to try the mix's especially the Hybrid Dwarfs like my beautiful Mandy

Hi Silver, you will never forget Mandy and she will always be part of your heart.. As time goes by you will find yourself smiling more at the things she did. You will always miss her but I'm sure she would have wanted you to find hammy love again.. It will never be the same but we never love the same people/babies in the same colour! some colours are brighter then others.
She had a fabulous life with you and it's a shame more people don't understand how these tiny little guys can grab a hold of your heart big time.. They all have their own individual personalities. Us hammy lovers know how you feel (well not exactly but you know what I mean).
When I lost Tillifer I was undecided if I was going to get a new girlie and despite her formidable behaviour I am glad that cinnamon is part of my life.
Perhaps your heart just needs some time to mend!
Big hammy hugs

Perhaps you just need some time to heal!!

Silver, I am clear over here in America and this thread has caused me to cry. We can all identify with your loss of Mandy. I have often said I can't do it again after going as far to the bridge as I could go with one of my precious little ones. And even now, my bf and family think I should stop having them when these two go. After Halle, I said nothing and didn't go back to the pet store. Maybe a week had gone by and I still said nothing. We were coming home one day after a long ride to the doctor and after we passed the pet shop, he asked me to make a U-turn. I said what for? He said Just do it, so I did. And he took me into the pet shop. There is where I felt Clara Jane calling me and she ran to me.
I have this strange philosophy that their spirit inhabits another hammie and they come back to us. And that may be why some have some of the same traits.
If this is true, Mandy will come back to you in spirit in another little one. You will know when.
In the meantime, please know over and over how much you have helped other hammies by your research and creation of the mixes. I know of no one but you who has done that! Hammies all over the world are benefiting.
