Goodbye Skippy

Skippy passed on this morning. (T_T)

In Deep Thoughts

A few nights ago, I found Scar in this position for a long time, manage to capture a photo of him. This little twerp looks like he is in deep thoughts. Using his paw to support his head.

.....???.....

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all the hammies around the world.

Best wishes,
Scar, Skippy and Herbie

More Cuteness

These photos will make one wanna squeeze-squash this little boy boy. He has already won over Scrump's owner when she came over the other day. =)

Surprised look

Blunt look -> -__-"

Curious look

One-Leg Skipper

The bad news awaits for the owners after they came back from their wedding. A day later, I saw Skippy limping and her hind leg was in an awkward position, my worst fear came true. The doctor suggested amputation without even the need to put a cast to see if the bones could join back.

Hamnosaurus

Hence, once again Skippy went into the operation room and this time round it took a toll on her. Although she survived the operation, but she emerged with a tear-stained face and her expression screamed pain. She was sort of relieved to see me and she seek the usual consolation from me. Co-owner took a video of me consoling her (it was kindda hilarious actually) but I don't know how to upload it here via Iphone.

"Nooo, don't let me into that place again!!"

Tear-stained face

Anyway, after a few weeks of medication and rehab, we finally put Skippy back to stay with Scar. Once again, both hamsters cannot see eye-to-eye with each other but nice little Scar is more accomodating to his handicap comrade. Little Skip is fine now. Aye, one-leg Skipper!

11.11.11

The past three months have been almost quiet in this blog. That's because the owners were getting married. Yesterday was finally the big day. The hammies are happy to see us back home.

As the hammies are part of our lives, the owners wanted them to appear in the photos. Initially, the best choice was to choose Scar and Skippy for the photo-shoot. But somehow, Skippy is the type that went hysterical if she leaves her cage and Scar is just a home boy. So, we feared they would go bonkers during the photo-shoot. Thus, Herbie was selected (if only EG is here).

Well, the verdict? Being waken up in the middle of sleep, thrown into the small carrier that swayed badly (owner carried too much stuff thus kept knocking the carrier), being picked up while finally snoozing off and sent to flashes of lights, let's just say Herbie is really not a happy hammy. For the owners? Trying to smile while this little fella nibbled on the fingers was really tough. On top of that, Herbie purposely showed her bum to the camera and one can see clearly that she is not very happy. =D

Scar, Skippy and Herbie: "Congrats to the owner's 11.11.11 wedding day!"

Neck-breaking Sleep Pose

Found Scar sleeping in such position this afternoon. I don't know about him, but if it was me, I would have easily gotten the stiff-neck syndrome after sleeping with the head in this awkward pose. (o.O)

Uniquely hamster style!

Three Headed Hamster

The guess on Who's Who staying together.


The answer: Scar and Skippy are housemates now. The verdict? Scar is not happy that his home is being utilised by another hammy and Skippy is not happy with Scar who didn't like to share his things.


But, I think they should be fine. =D

Departure Of Scratch

We are sad to say Scratch boy boy departed from us on Sept 11. =( Found him passed on when I returned home at night.

My boy has been battling with serious warts growth. Though Scratch boy is rather weak due to his old age and sickness, he was rather active and would insist on coming out to have a walk around the room. His sudden passing is quite sad but at least he will not suffer anymore pain.

His 'furneral' was held on Sept 12. RIP Scratch. :(

Guess Who & Who

Due to lack of resources, the Hamsty avenue new policy is to combine housing.

Guess who and who?
