They're all gone.

When I woke up this morning, the last baby was there. Moving & wiggling trying to find its mommy who was sleeping on the other side of the cage. She woke up before I left & the baby got a hold of her & tried to get milk but she tried to shake it off. Then next thing I knew he was tangled up in her bedding. She paid no attention to him and gathered up the bedding he was in to make a bed. She didnt even notice that her baby was lost in the big pile of bedding looking for her.

When I came back from school it was gone. The last baby is gone. I wasnt upset she ate the runt I wanted. Or its other three brothers & sisters, and I'm trying very hard not to be disappointed in her, but I cant help it.

I try talking to her, but she doesnt want to talk to mommy, she doesnt care much for what goes on anymore. She only wakes up to pee, drink & get more food. She hasnt even bathe in the passed two days. She's just slept & ate all day. I know she hasnt been as active as she use to be for the passed few months, but I think her slowing down is making me more sad then her eating her babies. I just want the Hammie baby back. But like all things in our past, we cant have them back.

I'm thankful she's alive & well, but I just want her to play on her wheel or bite on her cage again. Mommy misses you Hammie...
