hammy, my baby, passed on last night.. it was with us the longest and reli brought us alot of joy, laughter, and amusement cos of its cute expressions and actions during the past few years it was with us..

i can still remember clearly the way it looked when it first arrived, so cute, so small.. the way it climbed all over my hand, and all over the cage.. the way it tore up all the newspapers and slept under them when it first came and gradually learned to slp in its house when it got more comfortable staying with us.. the way it loved to run all ard the cage almost everytime we saw it, the many places tt became his slping habitats as well as the funny expressions it would make while it slept. we literally watched it grow up and grew up with it. it used to be my audience whenever i needed a listening ear and always cheered mi up by coming close and sticking its pert nose out. i loved to pretend to kiss it whenever it did tt. so funny..

last night, mom said smth was wrong with it and tt it was having spasms. mi and sis rushed to look at it and saw it struggling like it was choking on smth. it looked so in pain tt i felt horrible and tears started to form in my eyes.. we fed it water but it din seem to wanna drink. still, i held its water bottle close to its mouth jus in case.. after awhile it seemed calm down. all the while i was stroking it and calling "baby", it was staring at us with literally bulging eyes, but we had no idea how else to make it feel better.. we stayed with it for quite awhile until dad said to let it be. think he wanted hammy to rest.. some time later when i went to look at it, it had gone..

seeing its limp and lifeless body lying on its hay, i sobbed.. den cried.. i couldn't slp until my eyes were too tired to open..

i noe tt it has gone forever.. and it probably is at a better place right now.. but i still got smth to say to u baby.. baby i love u, we all do.. dun forget us okie.. we wont forget u..

this is smth i did for baby the other time..

baby, hope u will like it. lots of love.. melmel
