Ours occasionally wander behind the tv to get a better perspective. It's hilarious and adorable.

Re: Pets.
Our hamster, Pencil, died this morning. He was only about eight months old. I don't understand why this happened. He was such a sweet little guy. I hope we gave him a good short life.
Got a Rake? Sure!

Sorry Mrs. B. In college me and my then-girlfriend got a hamster and it lived about as long. Dunno what happened. Just underlines that all life is fragile.

Re: Pets.
I'm so sorry to read this. His life was brief but he made your family happy and he was cared for like few others.

Re: Pets.
The crying is understandable (and just proves what we know about you)
but you need not feel guilty Id say. I had a few mice as a kid. I think one lived 2 years but the poor thing got cancer (huge tumor) and the last 6 months I really didn't know what to do about it. I was very young and didn't get any helpful direction from my parents. I couldn't help but think I gave it cancer thru the food I gave it.

Re: Pets.
I had to euthanize our betta yesterday. I know he was just a fish, but he was super cool! There was an ammonia spike in my tank and he was suffering. Swim in peace, Finny.

Re: Pets.
sorry to hear that Mrs B. Regardless of the critter, it's sad to have to watch them go.

Re: Pets.
Maybe "just a fish," but it's mourning the loss of a relationship that you invested in. Always the bad part of the deal.
