Joey passed away today, ending his short time with us. He came to us in summer befor the start of school of 2003. He chose us by climbing up our arms, setting himself above all the other hamsters. His gentle personality grew on me, and he became a daddy before he was 3 months old. 10 babies carry his mark, the brown and black of the Syrians.
Joey was a sweet hammy, sitting on my shoulder, crawling in my sweater, and running in the ball.. He would always accept food from my hand, be it cheese, or some sort of veggie.
I will always remember Joey. I think he thought of me as "his" person.
God bless you and keep you ,Joey..
Til we meet at Rainbow Bridge.
I love you lil hammy..
