one of my neighbours, serene, her hamster gave birth to 5 babies last week. today, there's only 1 baby left. 1 died last night, and 3 died today. they're about 2 weeks old already. at least the mummy hamster didn't eat them up. she probably cannot anyway, since they're quite big and growing a bit of fur already. some who died had wounds on them. i guess she bit them. or maybe they just passed away and she nudged them too hard trying to wake them up =( the last surviving hammie has a wound at its neck. and it's a bit bloody all over. don't think it's going to surivive. the mummy seems depressed. spasming once in a while. sigh.

my hamham can't get delfi pregnant. but delfi seems to be fatter these days. she could be pregnant, but not with hamham's hammies. with the mummy hamster's husband, oompah. veron (delfi's owner) thought since oompah has proven himself fertile by getting mummy hamster pregnant with 5 babies, should let delfi have a chance with him. and so they screwed a bit. but she bled. so we stopped them from screwing. and now she's fatter. pregnant? well if she is, it just serves to prove my hamham impotent. which i won't get too upset about. i still love ham anyways.

delfi's fur is getting from bad to worse. she's been dropping fur from her bottom, and now she has a bare patch at the buttocks. bet she feels cold at night. hope her fur condition gets better. she's really cute. hamham and delfi belong together. they can get along so well in one cage.

hamsters. they all go to heaven when they die. just like dogs and some rabbits.
