It's with a heavy heart that I tell you all that my dwarf hamster Mr.
Waddsworth has departed for The Rainbow Bridge.  I was holding him in my
hand and stroking his head when he pee'd on my hand and took one last
gasp for breath.  Mr. Muldoone could you see it in your heart to greet a
dwarf hamster I don't know if his other brothers in fur will make it in
time they are pretty small and his ferret brothers probably are already
there.  Mr. Muldoone my hamster Mr. Waddsworth is a little cautious at
first but once he warms up to you he's your best friend and watch out he
has a wicked double paw punch it set my ferret Frankie back on his butt
for a moment.  Be sure to show him the fruit bar and where they keep the
figs and grapes especially the pumpkin seeds he went nuts for them while
I lived with him and if they have a drink Hamsters really like that I
don't know about please show him where it is okay.  Mr. Waddsworth God
Speed you're at peace now and please wait for me I'll be along in 60 or
70 years.
 
Sincerely
David Owings
 
Ferrets and hamsters have a way of weaseling their way into your heart
and once they do they never leave and I wouldn't have it any other way.
