Pet abandoned! T,T

Seriously, it really saddens me to write this article.

My cousin nudge me over MSN on Monday night asking me to adopt a hammie in.

Based on her information, someone just abandon a hammie in a small cage measuring around 15cm long by 7cm wide by 10cm tall. The hammie looks dirty and thristy as there was no water source found in the tiny cage. Nor there was any form of bedding in the cage.

After much discussion with my cousin, she decided to adopt the hammie in althrough she had no prior experience in keeping hamsters. I truly salute her determination in her actions and wanted to support her as well. So I decided to give away one of my cage with some beddings and food to Kuro (my cousin's hammie).

 Kuro is a very young (under 3mths old), male Russian Winter White after a short inspection on Tuesday. Very alert enough to know that it is being abandoned but generally very friendly towards strangers.

What I suspected was that Kuro was purhcased from pet store by someone but the family object against pet raising and hence abandon Kuro along with the mini cage at the flat's lobby beside the rubbish collection area.

A lot of non-pet owners thinks that pet abandoning is easy.

But it is not true especially for the pets involved.

 Pets DO feel and DO understand that THEY ARE ABANDONED.

 My 1st hamster was also an abandoned hamster but I tried asking my neighbours and no one come forward and admit that they had missing hamster. Ah Girl was very fierce to me when I tried to touch her the 1st time round. I end up getting bitten while trying to feed her.

She was an old hamster, around the age of 1+ years old, with a bit of fur dropping off, hence her appearance wasn't the prettiest. I nursed her back to health and we spent a happy 1/2 year together before she passed away of old age.

It is never easy to gain the trust of abandon ones as they had be betrayed by someone who are supposed look after them for lifetime until death bring them apart.

So before you, as the reader of this blog, decided to get a new hamster,
please note that PETS ARE LIFETIME COMMITMENT.


Cherish your pets just as you would like to cherish your loved ones.

Our pets truly deserved every single love from you as much as any other living human beings.

 ~PEACE TO THE WORLD~

Good new hamster information area spotted!

Saw this website accidently while browsing for some other information on Japanese stuff. All articles are written by the public for the public.

Super good website indeed!

I also add this into my More Squeaking links ^^,)

New pages Created!

I had to recreate my hamster biodata here from scratch - all thanks to Friendster and its friendly staff that deleted all my blog entries and photos that contain precious memories of my hamsters and their bio data. It might take a while but I will try to upload whatever I can still remember from my memories and whatever I can dig out from my old digital photo album.

Hamsters (animals) as gifts and presents????

On last Saturday, a friend whom I had not met for 3 years give me a pair of winter white hamsters as a birthday present when we met up for dinner.

Seriously, I was furious as well as annoyed by the stupidity of my friend in one way or another although I appreciate his thoughts on knowing that I love hamsters.

Hamsters are living animals that I seriously believe that we should not gave them as random gifts or presents. Have my friend consider what would had happened if I had rejected the pairs of hamsters? How will the hamsters fare? What will their fate be if I did not accept the hamsters?

My parents does not hate animals but do not approve house pets although I been keeping them in my room. As the result, I had to reduce the numbers of hamster that I had been keeping to 2 until that thoughtless friend of mine give me a pair of Winters for my birthday. He was mentioning that I used to keep 13 so 4 should not be a problem...

Have my friend really think of the consequences of that should I had rejected the 2 hamsters? What will my friend do? Return to the pet store and apologise? Keep the 2 hamsters and remind him how his recklessness had resulted in keeping 2 hamsters that he have neither experience or facilities for them for at least 2 years or more?

I seriously believe that animals are serious commitment until death brings us apart. If one really wish to give someone special an animal as a gift or present, I seriously advise the one to bring someone special down to a pet shelter (save a life, adopt one) or pet store and choose together.

Let the new /existing owner knows that he/she will be having new additional to the family and the additional commitment involved. Do not rush into a pet store and buy animals as gift or presents for the reason that they are simply adorable looking.

Every Single Animal is 

A Lifetime Commitment
