Sometime within the last 24 hours, my dear little Biggs passed peacefully in his sleep (hexbear.net)

At the age of about 18 months, my little rodent went away quietly in his sleep, as I have now learned cleaning his enclosure this morning. I know hamsters have such tragically short lifespans, yet it never makes the pain of saying goodbye any easier

I barely woke up an hour ago and don't really know what to say right now, but everyone here deserves to be in the know. You all have been so kind to Biggs and I. I only had him for a year and two whole days but they were special to me and special to a shocking amount of people on this website

It’s rare that smaller mammals really good the love and attention they deserve as pets. They get 2nd class pet status and are all too often the neglected starter pet of spoiled children. You gave Biggs so much love and I’m sure they were so grateful they ended up as your hamster.
