Sick Phoebe, our hammie

Oh bless you little Phoebe, sweet Helen, and dear Logan :( I will say a prayer for one of the tinest members of PT :( I so remember the pain that I went through with my childhood hammies' death. It's NEVER east, whether it's a dog, a cat, a bird, a fish or a hammie :(

I hope miss Phoebe is free from pain and is planning on staying on this earth longer. Maybe it's just a bad cold and it will pass...I hope it passes, but if not, then know that we will be there for you and Helen every step of the way.

God bless you and your family :(

On a lighter note, please wish Helen a happy belated birthday for me.

How is Phoebe doing today Logan???:confused:

Strangely enough, she's hanging in there, Sandra. Thanks for asking. I will admit that on Friday night, I thought she was a goner. But even this morning, Helen and I saw her reaching out of her bed and grabbing a sunflower seed. She is very inactive though, and doesn't open her little eyes all the way. Very little movement, and when she does, she ends up parking herself whereever she ended up. That is unusual because they normally sleep in the exact same spot.

She is getting lots of love and attention. Helen is holding her a lot in a towel, and stroking her. If these are her final days, at least they are filled with love. What else can we do? :( The vet and the pet store folks all agree that she is showing her age. She has no other signs of illness.

I'll keep you all posted. Keep up those good thoughts. As long as she isn't in pain, I'd like to have our Phoebe around for a long time.

Logan

I just came across this post. I'm so sorry to hear about Phoebe. We'll all be thinking about you.

I'm so sorry to hear that Phoebe has been ill. I didn't see
this post till today... Bless her little Hammie heart.!!! Hope
Phoebe makes a quick recovery, and is able to stay with
you guys for a long time yet.
That picture of Sweet Phoebe in Helen's pocket is Adorable.
It's definately POTD material !!! Prayers for Phoebe.... Liz.

Thank you , Liz and CC's mom. I'm afraid that it is only a matter of time for our Phoebe :( . She is holding on, but that is about it. If it gets too bad, I will take her to vet, but I hope she can go on her own.

We appreciate all of your good thoughts.

Logan

So sorry that your pet you love so much named Phoebe is so ill. But like you said I believe Logan that her last days will be filled with love. I feel your pain tonight for you and Helen.

{{{Phoebe, Helen, Logan}}},

:( Holding you all in our thoughts and prayers.

Helen and I want to say another big "thanks" to all of you for your prayers and concerns. I actually considered taking her in to be relieved of her misery today, but she is still hanging on, and sleeping, and occasionally, wandering out of her little bed to get a bite to eat and drink. We're watching her closely, and crossing our fingers that she isn't suffering. I will say, she looks so much better than she did Friday night, but still is not her normal active self.

Logan

We just want to say that little Phoebe is in our minds, she is a tough little one! We know you're doing what you can to comfort her. Glad to hear she had a bite and a drink!

We'll keep our fingers and paws crossed for her!

We love you little Phoebe...Logan, I know that you are making her as comfortable as possible. This is so heartbreaking. You and Helen and Phoebe are in our thoughts and prayers always. Love, Sandra

Hope things get better..shes a cutie..get well soon little hammie

ah..ok i feel stupid..i didnt read that later part..i'm sorry!!!!!!!!!!

How's Phoebe doing Logan????:confused:

Not good, Sandra, but for some reason, she's still holding on. I can't believe it. :( It is a pitiful sight. I emailed you earlier with a complete update on Phoebe and Roger (our bright spot :) )
