I think its time for me to write this....
I remember going to the pet shop on November the 9th 2006 and asking to see the hamsters, I had my eye on a sandy coloured one when you popped out the bed Whisk, gorgeous colouring alert eyes, I knew you were the one. I picked you up for the first time there and then, before bringing you home. It was love at first sight.
The first few weeks were good, you became tamer, the love became stronger, everything was so perfect. I remember getting excited about getting home from school just to see you. At first you were quite hyper, hanging from the cage bars and running on (top of) your wheel.
As you matured you became more cuddly and stopped being as hyper, you ate a lot, but I didnt mind, I loved to spoil you. Then there was the time where I took you to get your nails clipped, the vet said you were fat and you would make a nice meat pie (evil vet) so we put you on a diet for a bit- weighing you each week then when you were the right weight you came off the diet.
I love you so much and you made me adore all hamsters- so I got Chino. Despite loving you both a lot, you are and always will be my heart hammy.
I loved snuggling you and kissing you, you were... ARE so perfect, so special and a very popular little hamster. Soon you had a lot of fans and 'aunties', a few of which would see you on webcam often- you are adored by so many Whisky baby.
When I got back from holiday and saw your leg, I knew it was nearing your time, for the next 4 weeks you were spoilt rotten, and we grew even closer. That Friday I found out you were going to the bridge was awful, I wished I could keep you with me forever (which I will in my heart and mind but I mean physically), the weekend was great, you would sleep in your bed on my lap while I watched tv and cuddled you.... you were tired, but still the same sweetie.
It broke my heart when it came to the day, I snuggled and fed you early in the morning before your vet appointment, then I snuggled you as you fell asleep for the last time. I was upset, but for me, I knew it was your time to go. You were so peaceful, and as I placed you on that bed, I could tell it was the right thing.
I cant begin to name you all the good times, all the time with you was a good time Whisk, you are perfect, special and so loved.
I love you Whisk and I always will. Thank you for your snuggles and kisses. You are forever in my heart.
