I am sorry. I, too, cried as I watched my dtr's hamster - L.L. Cool Ham -pass. It took a full day of him gasping for a breath every so often. He was so fat and he was stuck in the door of his house. I didn't want to make him suffer any more by pulling him out (he wasn't stuck tight) so I just let him go on his own, but it was so hard to watch. 3 years is a long, good life for a hamster, so just remember that you gave her a loving home, cared for her, protected her and made her happy. Lilly will grow her own tiny wings now and join L.L. and all the other furry little creatures that have passe before her. ((Hugs)) (Shortly after we lost L.L., our guinea pig - Alfalfa Sprout - also passed. Both were buried under a tree in the back yard). |
