Default Sleep well, Nibbles

We lost our beautiful hamster, Nibbles, last week. She became ill and went downhill very quickly so it’s all been a shock. She was 18 months old.

She was the softest and most sweet-natured little thing, and me and my two children thought the world of her. On her most famous adventure, she managed to escape under the floorboards through an unknown hole - we didn't think we'd ever see her again. We pulled up floorboards and laid bucket traps and 36 hours later I went downstairs in the early hours to find her sitting in one of the buckets! I can't describe how elated I felt at seeing her dusty little face looking up at me!

Sleep well, beautiful girl. We will never forget you.

I’m so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you and your children provided a loving home for her, and I’m sure you all will miss her.

And thanks for sharing the floorboards story — that must have been scary at the time. So glad her grand adventure had a happy ending!

Run free and play well at the bridge, Nibbles.

Thank you for your kind words.

This was the first hamster I’d had since I was a child and I completely underestimated how devastating it would be when she passed away.

We are looking into adopting another one now.
