Broken hamster!!

Honestly Shades I know it was daft but they all lived long and happy lives. And we didn't do it often. Years back there was no advice against it and it was the pet shop guy who told us they liked chocolate. Mini was nearly 7 when he died. Most gerbils live between 2 and 5 years from memory. And he died because we had to have his teeth clipped. He was too old to be able to keep his teeth pared down and couldn't eat. We knew the "operation" might be too much for him but he couldn't eat so we had no choice.
