Frank has ed

Hello

So this is a sad post I just found out frank has died. It was natural and I assume bad genetics and sadly that doesn’t surprise me he died so young he would have turned one early October. And he apparently died around the 22 of November. You might ask how is it possible you didn’t know till now? Well frank was technically my brothers but me and my mom take care of him and I hadn’t been spending time with him these past few months or his new hamster so I couldn’t have known it was right before I went on vacation in November and he died of natural causes on the was to the sitters. My mom and dad replaced him and didn’t tell me or my brother. This was my first time leaving my small pets at a sitters and she didn’t want to make me lose trust in sitters or ruin my vacation. Also though my brother didn’t take care of him he loved him and it was his first pet he’s never had one die so it would crush him so I promised not to tell him. About almost two months ago I checked up on the hamster that’s in the cage now I know and it bit me and I was confused and today I mentioned it to my parents and they told me. Though I am sad I’m also happy I can give this new hamster a home. He spends most his time under bedding so that’s how I didn’t notice but now I got a better look at him he is huge and has slightly different coloring. Frank was a small hamster almost as small as a dwarf though he was a Syrian and was the sweetest thing I’m crying while writing this most are tears of sadness but they are also slightly tears of joy that I got to know such a sweet adorable hamster that frank was I had always thought frank seemed malnourished he was irregularly tiny but he had the heart of a angel and was sweet from day one always up to being held I miss my baby so much but I know he is in a better place now in heaven and was never in pain as he apparently ed in he’s sleep and we know for sure it was natural causes nothing like a heart attack and I know he would want me to be sad frank loved broccoli and like carrots but they where not his favorite he only like one hide he had which was a candle holder with a cat climbing it I bought at the thrift store and he would never use any other hide and he likes to sometimes sleep under a hanging hide that would just touch the floor of bedding in the cage he had a sensitivity to aspen and loved to climb in my hair I miss my baby so much but he had a good happy life and knows I have always loved him and always will and I know he knows this new hamster will never be a replacement for him as he could never be replaced he was a true one of a kind and just had bad luck with genetics there for was smaller then he should have been being only slightly larger then a dwarf hamster he was happy and active till he went to sleep my mom told me and nothing seemed off and I’m happy he enjoyed his last moments even though I wasn’t able to say good bye to my baby boy he knows I love his with all my heart and I refuse to say loved because I will always love him no matter what has happened and will always keep that special place in my heart for him frank is my first hamster to have ever died and we first got him early November 2017 and he lived a good life I have only been keeping hamsters since July 10th 2017 but it’s a roller coaster of joy pain sadness and warmth and if I could go back the only thing I would change is I would have spent more time with him and would have not forgotten to celebrate his birthday I’m grateful For all the memories and happy days I had with him and I’m sure I’ll never forget my sweet baby this will be hard and nothing will ever mend the hole in my heart but it will still be filled with warmth and I’ll keep going and be happy for my baby because that’s what he would want and I know I’ll see him again some day I think this is where this post ends or I fear I’ll go on forever not that that would be bad though and I’m happy he is in a better place and free of the pain inside all this sadness thank you for reading this if you finished it as I know you didn’t have to some of you might have known hi others not but he still holds a place amongst the hamsters of hamsters amino
