Goodbye Midnite

I fed Nic's hamster some cooked rice at lunch time but did not get any reaction from the little critter. Next I nudged her but realized that something isn't right. Nicole rushed over and our worst fears became reality - the little fur ball is dead. Nic was inconsolable and cried uncontrollably. I am not surprised as she really, really loves animals. I asked her if she wanted to bury Midnite near our parking lot and she said yes.

We only had 22 months with the little hamster but we had fun. She was so adorable and docile. She did bite us the first couple of days (probably out of fear) but since then she was simply wonderful. Each time we open the cage, she'd come out as if to greet us. We'll miss you Midnite! An earlier video at home.
